SubjectRe: [i2c] [RFC][PATCH 4/4] RTC: SMBus support for the M41T80,
Hi Maciej,

Maybe you shouldn't have included 4 different mailing lists to start
with, especially for a patch which is rather hardware-specific and not
overly important.

You're going in the right direction, but it's not yet correct.

As I already wrote, what the M41T81 wants is _I2C_ block transactions,
not _SMBus_ block transactions. Both are supported by i2c-core, it's
just a matter of checking the right functionality flag and calling the
right helper function.

This is reimplementing i2c_smbus_write_i2c_block_data().

And this is reimplementing i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data(). So please
just use these standard helpers, which have the advantage that they can
work on a number of adapters that cannot do full I2C (many SMBus
controllers support I2C block transactions as long as the length
doesn't exceed 32 bytes.)

And then here you want to check for I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK. Or even
better, check for I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_READ_I2C_BLOCK on read and
I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_WRITE_I2C_BLOCK on write, so you get the best of each
adapter in the unlikely event an adapter would support I2C block reads
but not writes or vice-versa.

Mixing code cleanups with functional changes is a Bad Idea (TM).

That's not correct. The driver is making unconditional calls to
i2c_smbus_write_byte_data() and i2c_smbus_read_byte_data() so the
underlying adapter _must_ implement I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_BYTE_DATA. If it
additionally implements I2C_FUNC_I2C (or actually
I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK), see above, then you can optimize some
transactions, but you don't have to check it here, the check should be
done at run-time (as you already do.)

You really shouldn't worry about making the I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_BYTE_DATA
check unconditional. I don't think I've ever seen an i2c bus driver not
supporting it.

Incorrect change, dev_info() already includes the chip name.

Again coding style fixes...

And here again...

I'm not the one who will take your patch, I'll leave it to Alessandro
to tell you what he wants, but one thing for sure: it would be much
easier to review and validate your patches if you were not mixing
functional changes and code cleanups.

This one deserves a patch on its own IMHO.
