| |
Hi, I'm in the process of porting my Epson 8564 RTC chip from 2.4 to 2.6.6-rc2. This is a RTC chip sitting on a I2C bus.
The code is here: http://213.239.196.168/~seletz/patches/2.6.6-rc2/i2c-rtc8564.patch http://213.239.196.168/~seletz/patches/2.6.6-rc2/machine-raalpha-rtc.patch
In order to split up functionality (I2C bus access and RTC misc device stuff) I wrote two separate modules. In the rtc code module I did a i2c_get_client() with the ID of my RTC chip to get a struct i2c_client which I think I need to talk to the chip. I've implemented the command callback in my I2C module, which I want to call from my RTC module.
Now I find that in 2.6.6-rc2 the i2c_get_client() implementation is missing (the prototype is still in linux/i2c.h). Even the docs for i2c_use_client() refer to that function.
Most probably I'm missing something, but how is one supposed to access a i2c-client's command function when i2c_get_client() is missing?
Of course I could just merge these two drivers and forget about separating i2c chip access and rtc stuff, but ...
Thanks, Stefan E.
