In slave monitor mode, the I2C interface is set up as a master and continues to attempt a transfer to a particular slave until the slave device responds with an ACK. This feature is an optional and defined in few of the controllers, Can anyone tell me is this support is added already in kernel, if yes please point to the respective driver or code link. thanks! -- Jagan. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
