-Description 
------------ 
-
-WARNING: If you have an '810' or '815' motherboard, your standard I2C
-temperature sensors are most likely on the 801's I2C bus. You want the
-i2c-i801 driver for those, not this driver.
-
-Now for the i2c-i810...
-
-The GMCH chip contains two I2C interfaces.
-
-The first interface is used for DDC (Data Display Channel) which is a
-serial channel through the VGA monitor connector to a DDC-compliant
-monitor. This interface is defined by the Video Electronics Standards
-Association (VESA). The standards are available for purchase at
-http://www.vesa.org .
-
-The second interface is a general-purpose I2C bus. It may be connected to a
-TV-out chip such as the BT869 or possibly to a digital flat-panel display.
-
-Features
--------- 
-
-Both busses use the i2c-algo-bit driver for 'bit banging'
-and support for specific transactions is provided by i2c-algo-bit.
-
-Issues
-------
-
-If you enable bus testing in i2c-algo-bit (insmod i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1),
-the test may fail; if so, the i2c-i810 driver won't be inserted. However,
-we think this has been fixed.

+This is a summary of the most important conventions for use of fault
+codes in the I2C/SMBus stack.
+
+
+A "Fault" is not always an "Error"
+----------------------------------
+Not all fault reports imply errors; "page faults" should be a familiar
+example.  Software often retries idempotent operations after transient
+faults.  There may be fancier recovery schemes that are appropriate in
+some cases, such as re-initializing (and maybe resetting).  After such
+recovery, triggered by a fault report, there is no error.
+
+In a similar way, sometimes a "fault" code just reports one defined
+result for an operation ... it doesn't indicate that anything is wrong
+at all, just that the outcome wasn't on the "golden path".
+
+In short, your I2C driver code may need to know these codes in order
+to respond correctly.  Other code may need to rely on YOUR code reporting
+the right fault code, so that it can (in turn) behave correctly.
+
+
+I2C and SMBus fault codes
+-------------------------
+These are returned as negative numbers from most calls, with zero or
+some positive number indicating a non-fault return.  The specific
+numbers associated with these symbols differ between architectures,
+though most Linux systems use <asm-generic/errno*.h> numbering.
+
+Note that the descriptions here are not exhaustive.  There are other
+codes that may be returned, and other cases where these codes should
+be returned.  However, drivers should not return other codes for these
+cases (unless the hardware doesn't provide unique fault reports).
+
+Also, codes returned by adapter probe methods follow rules which are
+specific to their host bus (such as PCI, or the platform bus).
+
+
+EAGAIN
+        Returned by I2C adapters when they lose arbitration in master
+        transmit mode:  some other master was transmitting different
+        data at the same time.
+
+        Also returned when trying to invoke an I2C operation in an
+        atomic context, when some task is already using that I2C bus
+        to execute some other operation.
+
+EBADMSG
+        Returned by SMBus logic when an invalid Packet Error Code byte
+        is received.  This code is a CRC covering all bytes in the
+        transaction, and is sent before the terminating STOP.  This
+        fault is only reported on read transactions; the SMBus slave
+        may have a way to report PEC mismatches on writes from the
+        host.  Note that even if PECs are in use, you should not rely
+        on these as the only way to detect incorrect data transfers.
+
+EBUSY
+        Returned by SMBus adapters when the bus was busy for longer
+        than allowed.  This usually indicates some device (maybe the
+        SMBus adapter) needs some fault recovery (such as resetting),
+        or that the reset was attempted but failed.
+
+EINVAL
+        This rather vague error means an invalid parameter has been
+        detected before any I/O operation was started.  Use a more
+        specific fault code when you can.
+
+        One example would be a driver trying an SMBus Block Write
+        with block size outside the range of 1-32 bytes.
+
+EIO
+        This rather vague error means something went wrong when
+        performing an I/O operation.  Use a more specific fault
+        code when you can.
+
+ENODEV
+        Returned by driver probe() methods.  This is a bit more
+        specific than ENXIO, implying the problem isn't with the
+        address, but with the device found there.  Driver probes
+        may verify the device returns *correct* responses, and
+        return this as appropriate.  (The driver core will warn
+        about probe faults other than ENXIO and ENODEV.)
+
+ENOMEM
+        Returned by any component that can't allocate memory when
+        it needs to do so.
+
+ENXIO
+        Returned by I2C adapters to indicate that the address phase
+        of a transfer didn't get an ACK.  While it might just mean
+        an I2C device was temporarily not responding, usually it
+        means there's nothing listening at that address.
+
+        Returned by driver probe() methods to indicate that they
+        found no device to bind to.  (ENODEV may also be used.)
+
+EOPNOTSUPP
+        Returned by an adapter when asked to perform an operation
+        that it doesn't, or can't, support.
+
+        For example, this would be returned when an adapter that
+        doesn't support SMBus block transfers is asked to execute
+        one.  In that case, the driver making that request should
+        have verified that functionality was supported before it
+        made that block transfer request.
+
+        Similarly, if an I2C adapter can't execute all legal I2C
+        messages, it should return this when asked to perform a
+        transaction it can't.  (These limitations can't be seen in
+        the adapter's functionality mask, since the assumption is
+        that if an adapter supports I2C it supports all of I2C.)
+
+EPROTO
+        Returned when slave does not conform to the relevant I2C
+        or SMBus (or chip-specific) protocol specifications.  One
+        case is when the length of an SMBus block data response
+        (from the SMBus slave) is outside the range 1-32 bytes.
+
+ETIMEDOUT
+        This is returned by drivers when an operation took too much
+        time, and was aborted before it completed.
+
+        SMBus adapters may return it when an operation took more
+        time than allowed by the SMBus specification; for example,
+        when a slave stretches clocks too far.  I2C has no such
+        timeouts, but it's normal for I2C adapters to impose some
+        arbitrary limits (much longer than SMBus!) too.

+Device Detection (Standard driver model)
+----------------------------------------
+
+Sometimes you do not know in advance which I2C devices are connected to
+a given I2C bus.  This is for example the case of hardware monitoring
+devices on a PC's SMBus.  In that case, you may want to let your driver
+detect supported devices automatically.  This is how the legacy model
+was working, and is now available as an extension to the standard
+driver model (so that we can finally get rid of the legacy model.)
+
+You simply have to define a detect callback which will attempt to
+identify supported devices (returning 0 for supported ones and -ENODEV
+for unsupported ones), a list of addresses to probe, and a device type
+(or class) so that only I2C buses which may have that type of device
+connected (and not otherwise enumerated) will be probed.  The i2c
+core will then call you back as needed and will instantiate a device
+for you for every successful detection.
+
+Note that this mechanism is purely optional and not suitable for all
+devices.  You need some reliable way to identify the supported devices
+(typically using device-specific, dedicated identification registers),
+otherwise misdetections are likely to occur and things can get wrong
+quickly.
