If you need more than one bus, you need a new device
exposing the
I2C bus, besides the new sensor devices. USB-I2C could be
one such
device.
So let me see if I understood well. USB-I2C (host QEMU device)
seems a
good idea, I could normally do : qemu-system-i386 -device
usb-I2c,chardev=foo -device usb-i2c,chardev=bar -chardev
socket,path=/tmp/test1,server,__nowait,id=bar.-device i2c-my-sensor,address=0x48,__bus=usb-i2c-0.0
Almost. For QOM:
-device usb-i2c,id=usb-i2c-0
For chardev:
-device usb-i2c,id=usb-i2c-0
-chardev socket,path=/tmp/test0,server,__nowait,id=chr-foo-0
-device
i2c-my-sensor,address=0x48,__bus=usb-i2c-0.0,chardev=chr-__foo-0
Repeat for the other buses, replacing -0 with -1 and -2.
I need a "USB-I2C guest kernel driver" that would register a bus
(i2c-1
for chardev foo, i2c-2 for chardev bar etc...), I guess ?
It exists already, drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-tiny-usb.c.
I'm now trying to write this new USB-I2C device, I look through some of
the code (dev-serial, dev-...), I used dev-serial code and removed the
code that wanted to declare a chardev (I don't need one to create my
bus, right ?).
Now I'm wondering, how will be i2c-tiny-usb launched and declare a new
/dev/i2c-N, with my device. I found :
static struct usb_device_id i2c_tiny_usb_table [] = {
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0403, 0xc631) }, /* FTDI */
{ USB_DEVICE(0x1c40, 0x0534) }, /* EZPrototypes */
{ } /* Terminating entry */
};
So I figured my USB-I2C should register using these numbers ?
static const USBDesc desc_i2c = {
.id = {
.idVendor = 0x0403,
.idProduct = 0xc631,
.bcdDevice = 0x0400,
.iManufacturer = STR_MANUFACTURER,
.iProduct = STR_PRODUCT_I2C,
.iSerialNumber = STR_SERIALNUMBER,
},
.full = &desc_device,
.str = desc_strings,
};
However, this doesn't work, after a $ qemu-system-i386
debian_wheezy_i386_standard.qcow2 -usb -device USB-I2C,id=usb-i2c-0, the
driver doesn't seem to be used (/sys/class/i2c-dev/i2c-0/name isn't for
it...), even if I modprobe i2c-tiny-usb...
The dmesg shows it doesn't go into the "probe" function.
What did I miss ?
I honestly don't know, you'll have to debug it.
