29 .Os
30 .Sh NAME
31 .Nm glxiic
32 .Nd Geode LX CS5536 I2C controller driver
33 .Sh SYNOPSIS
34 To compile this driver into the kernel,
35 place the following lines in your
36 kernel configuration file:
37 .Bd -ragged -offset indent
38 .Cd "device pci"
39 .Cd "device isa"
40 .Cd "device glxiic"
41 .Cd "device iicbus"
42 .Ed
43 .Pp
44 Alternatively, to load the driver as a
45 module at boot time, place the following line in
46 .Xr loader.conf 5 :
47 .Bd -literal -offset indent
48 glxiic_load="YES"
49 .Ed
50 .Sh DESCRIPTION
51 The
52 .Nm
53 driver supports the System Management Bus controller of the Geode LX
54 series CS5536 Companion Device. The Geode LX is a member of the AMD
55 Geode family of integrated x86 system chips.
56 .Pp
57 Although AMD refers to this device as a System Management Bus (SMBus)
58 controller, it is really an I2C controller (it lacks SMBus ALERT# and
59 Alert Response support).
60 .Pp
61 The
62 .Nm
63 driver supports both I2C master and slave mode.
64 .Sh SYSCTL VARIABLE
65 The
66 .Nm
67 driver supports the following variable as both
68 .Xr sysctl 8
69 and
70 .Xr loader 8
71 tunable:
72 .Bl -tag -width indent
73 .It Va dev.glxiic.0.timeout
74 This variable controls the I2C bus timeout in milliseconds. The
75 default timeout is 35 milliseconds. A value of zero disables the
76 timeout.
77 .El
78 .Sh CAVEAT
79 The
80 .Nm
81 driver uses the interrupt line number configured by the board firmware
82 by default. If no interrupt line number has been configured by the
83 board firmware (or to override the interrupt line number configured by
84 board firmware), place the following line in
85 .Xr device.hints 5 :
86 .Bd -ragged -offset indent
87 hint.glxiic.0.irq="10"
88 .Ed
89 .Pp
90 The interrupt line number must be between 1 and 15.

98 The
99 .Nm
100 device driver and manual page first appeared in
