- ==============================
- Linux I2C slave EEPROM backend
- ==============================
- by Wolfram Sang <[email protected]> in 2014-20
- This backend simulates an EEPROM on the connected I2C bus. Its memory contents
- can be accessed from userspace via this file located in sysfs::
- /sys/bus/i2c/devices/<device-directory>/slave-eeprom
- The following types are available: 24c02, 24c32, 24c64, and 24c512. Read-only
- variants are also supported. The name needed for instantiating has the form
- 'slave-<type>[ro]'. Examples follow:
- 24c02, read/write, address 0x64:
- # echo slave-24c02 0x1064 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
- 24c512, read-only, address 0x42:
- # echo slave-24c512ro 0x1042 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
- You can also preload data during boot if a device-property named
- 'firmware-name' contains a valid filename (DT or ACPI only).
- As of 2015, Linux doesn't support poll on binary sysfs files, so there is no
- notification when another master changed the content.
