[PATCH 2/2] i2c-s3c2410: Add bus arbitration implementation

Thu Nov 29 00:05:35 EST 2012


From: Simon Glass <sjg at chromium.org>

The arbitrator is a general purpose function which uses two GPIOs to
communicate with another device to claim/release a bus. We use it to
arbitrate an i2c port between the AP and the EC.

+GPIO-based Arbitration
+======================
+(documented here for want of a better place - an implementation is in the
+i2c-s3c2410 driver)
+
+This uses GPIO lines between the AP (Exynos) and an attached EC (embedded
+controller) which both want to talk on the same I2C bus as master.
+
+The AP and EC each have a 'bus claim' line, which is an output that the
+other can see. These are both active low, with pull-ups enabled.
+
+- AP_CLAIM: output from AP, signalling to the EC that the AP wants the bus
+- EC_CLAIM: output from EC, signalling to the AP that the EC wants the bus
+
+
+Algorithm
+---------
+The basic algorithm is to assert your line when you want the bus, then make
+sure that the other side doesn't want it also. A detailed explanation is best
+done with an example.
+
+Let's say the AP wants to claim the bus. It:
+1. Asserts AP_CLAIM
+2. Waits a little bit for the other side to notice (slew time, say 10
+microseconds)
+3. Checks EC_CLAIM. If this is not asserted, then the AP has the bus, and
+we are done
+4. Otherwise, wait for a few milliseconds and see if EC_CLAIM is released
+5. If not, back off, release the claim and wait for a few more milliseconds
+6. Go back to 1 (until retry time has expired)
+
+To release the bus, just de-assert the claim line. If the other wants the bus
+it will notice soon enough.
+
+The same algorithm applies on the EC side.
