Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
common case where it's needed -- a write followed by a read to the same slave.
The i2c controller in this chip only performs complete transfers, it does
not provide control over start/repeat-start/stop operations on the bus.
Thus, we have gotten a full stop/start sequence rather than a repeat-start
when doing a typical i2c slave access of "write address, read data". Some
i2c slave devices require a repeat-start to work correctly.
These changes cause the controller to do a repeat-start by pre-staging the
read parameters in the controller registers immediate after the controller
has latched the values for the initial write operation, but before any
bytes are actually written. With the values pre-staged, when the write
portion of the transfer completes, the state machine in the silicon sees
a new start operation already staged and that causes it to perform a
repeat-start. The key to tricking the buggy hardware into doing this is
to avoid prefilling any output data in the transmit FIFO so that it is
possible to catch the silicon in the state where transmit values are
latched but the transmit isn't completed yet.
