-
-The code is based upon Ralph's test code (he did the hard stuff ;')
-
-Description
------------
-
-The 3dfx Voodoo3 chip contains two I2C interfaces (aka a I2C 'master' or
-'host').
-
-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. The intent by 3dfx was
-to allow manufacturers to add extra chips to the video card such as a
-TV-out chip such as the BT869 or possibly even I2C based temperature
-sensors like the ADM1021 or LM75.
-
-Stability
----------
-
-Seems to be stable on the test machine, but needs more testing on other
-machines. Simultaneous accesses of the DDC and I2C busses may cause errors.
-
-Supported Devices
------------------
-
-Specifically, this driver was written and tested on the '3dfx Voodoo3 AGP
-3000' which has a tv-out feature (s-video or composite). According to the
-docs and discussions, this code should work for any Voodoo3 based cards as
-well as Voodoo Banshee based cards. The DDC interface has been tested on a
-Voodoo Banshee card.
-
-Issues
-------
-
-Probably many, but it seems to work OK on my system. :')
-
-
-External Device Connection
---------------------------
-
-The digital video input jumpers give availability to the I2C bus.
-Specifically, pins 13 and 25 (bottom row middle, and bottom right-end) are
-the I2C clock and I2C data lines, respectively. +5V and GND are probably
-also easily available making the addition of extra I2C/SMBus devices easy
-to implement.

-Description
------------
-
-This is a simple EEPROM module meant to enable reading the first 256 bytes
-of an EEPROM (on a SDRAM DIMM for example). However, it will access serial
-EEPROMs on any I2C adapter. The supported devices are generically called
-24Cxx, and are listed above; however the numbering for these
-industry-standard devices may vary by manufacturer.
-
-This module was a programming exercise to get used to the new project
-organization laid out by Frodo, but it should be at least completely
-effective for decoding the contents of EEPROMs on DIMMs.
-
-DIMMS will typically contain a 24C01A or 24C02, or the 34C02 variants.
-The other devices will not be found on a DIMM because they respond to more
-than one address.
-
-DDC Monitors may contain any device. Often a 24C01, which responds to all 8
-addresses, is found.
-
-Recent Sony Vaio laptops have an EEPROM at 0x57. We couldn't get the
-specification, so it is guess work and far from being complete.
-
-The Microchip 24AA52/24LCS52, ST M34C02, and others support an additional
-software write protect register at 0x30 - 0x37 (0x20 less than the memory
-location). The chip responds to "write quick" detection at this address but
-does not respond to byte reads. If this register is present, the lower 128
-bytes of the memory array are not write protected. Any byte data write to
-this address will write protect the memory array permanently, and the
-device will no longer respond at the 0x30-37 address. The eeprom driver
-does not support this register.
-
-Lacking functionality:
-
-* Full support for larger devices (24C04, 24C08, 24C16). These are not
-typically found on a PC. These devices will appear as separate devices at
-multiple addresses.
-
-* Support for really large devices (24C32, 24C64, 24C128, 24C256, 24C512).
-These devices require two-byte address fields and are not supported.
-
-* Enable Writing. Again, no technical reason why not, but making it easy
-to change the contents of the EEPROMs (on DIMMs anyway) also makes it easy
-to disable the DIMMs (potentially preventing the computer from booting)
-until the values are restored somehow.
-
-Use:
-
-After inserting the module (and any other required SMBus/i2c modules), you
-should have some EEPROM directories in /sys/bus/i2c/devices/* of names such
-as "0-0050". Inside each of these is a series of files, the eeprom file
-contains the binary data from EEPROM.

-Description
------------
-
-The Maxim MAX6875 is an EEPROM-programmable power-supply sequencer/supervisor.
-It provides timed outputs that can be used as a watchdog, if properly wired.
-It also provides 512 bytes of user EEPROM.
-
-At reset, the MAX6875 reads the configuration EEPROM into its configuration
-registers. The chip then begins to operate according to the values in the
-registers.
-
-The Maxim MAX6874 is a similar, mostly compatible device, with more intputs

-
-
-General Remarks
----------------
-
-Valid addresses for the MAX6875 are 0x50 and 0x52.
-Valid addresses for the MAX6874 are 0x50, 0x52, 0x54 and 0x56.
-The driver does not probe any address, so you must force the address.
-
-Example:
-$ modprobe max6875 force=0,0x50
-
-The MAX6874/MAX6875 ignores address bit 0, so this driver attaches to multiple
-addresses. For example, for address 0x50, it also reserves 0x51.
-The even-address instance is called 'max6875', the odd one is 'dummy'.
-
-
-Programming the chip using i2c-dev
-----------------------------------
-
-Use the i2c-dev interface to access and program the chips.
-Reads and writes are performed differently depending on the address range.
-
-The configuration registers are at addresses 0x00 - 0x45.
-Use i2c_smbus_write_byte_data() to write a register and
-i2c_smbus_read_byte_data() to read a register.
-The command is the register number.
-
-Examples:
-To write a 1 to register 0x45:
- i2c_smbus_write_byte_data(fd, 0x45, 1);
-
-To read register 0x45:
- value = i2c_smbus_read_byte_data(fd, 0x45);
-
-
-The configuration EEPROM is at addresses 0x8000 - 0x8045.
-The user EEPROM is at addresses 0x8100 - 0x82ff.
-
-Use i2c_smbus_write_word_data() to write a byte to EEPROM.
-
-The command is the upper byte of the address: 0x80, 0x81, or 0x82.
-The data word is the lower part of the address or'd with data << 8.
- cmd = address >> 8;
- val = (address & 0xff) | (data << 8);
-
-Example:
-To write 0x5a to address 0x8003:
- i2c_smbus_write_word_data(fd, 0x80, 0x5a03);
-
-
-Reading data from the EEPROM is a little more complicated.
-Use i2c_smbus_write_byte_data() to set the read address and then
-i2c_smbus_read_byte() or i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() to read the data.
-
-Example:
-To read data starting at offset 0x8100, first set the address:
- i2c_smbus_write_byte_data(fd, 0x81, 0x00);
-
-And then read the data
- value = i2c_smbus_read_byte(fd);
-
- or
-
- count = i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data(fd, 0x84, 16, buffer);
-
-The block read should read 16 bytes.
-0x84 is the block read command.
-
-See the datasheet for more details.

-Description
------------
-The PCF8574(A) is an 8-bit I/O expander for the I2C bus produced by Philips
-Semiconductors. It is designed to provide a byte I2C interface to up to 16
-separate devices (8 x PCF8574 and 8 x PCF8574A).
-
-This device consists of a quasi-bidirectional port. Each of the eight I/Os
-can be independently used as an input or output. To setup an I/O as an
-input, you have to write a 1 to the corresponding output.
-
-For more informations see the datasheet.
-
-
-Accessing PCF8574(A) via /sys interface
--------------------------------------
-
-The PCF8574(A) is plainly impossible to detect ! Stupid chip.
-So, you have to pass the I2C bus and address of the installed PCF857A
-and PCF8574A devices explicitly to the driver at load time via the
-force=... parameter.
-
-On detection (i.e. insmod, modprobe et al.), directories are being
-created for each detected PCF8574(A):
-
-/sys/bus/i2c/devices/<0>-<1>/
-where <0> is the bus the chip was detected on (e. g. i2c-0)
-and <1> the chip address ([20..27] or [38..3f]):
-
-(example: /sys/bus/i2c/devices/1-0020/)
-
-Inside these directories, there are two files each:
-read and write (and one file with chip name).
-
-The read file is read-only. Reading gives you the current I/O input
-if the corresponding output is set as 1, otherwise the current output
-value, that is to say 0.
-
-The write file is read/write. Writing a value outputs it on the I/O
-port. Reading returns the last written value. As it is not possible
-to read this value from the chip, you need to write at least once to
-this file before you can read back from it.

-
-
-Some vendors sell small PCB's with the PCF8575 mounted on it. You can connect
-such a board to a Linux host via e.g. an USB to I2C interface. Examples of
-PCB boards with a PCF8575:

-
-
-Description
------------
-The PCF8575 chip is a 16-bit I/O expander for the I2C bus. Up to eight of
-these chips can be connected to the same I2C bus. You can find this
-chip on some custom designed hardware, but you won't find it on PC
-motherboards.
-
-The PCF8575 chip consists of a 16-bit quasi-bidirectional port and an I2C-bus
-interface. Each of the sixteen I/O's can be independently used as an input or
-an output. To set up an I/O pin as an input, you have to write a 1 to the
-corresponding output.
-
-For more information please see the datasheet.
-
-
-Detection
----------
-
-There is no method known to detect whether a chip on a given I2C address is
-a PCF8575 or whether it is any other I2C device, so you have to pass the I2C
-bus and address of the installed PCF8575 devices explicitly to the driver at
-load time via the force=... parameter.
-
-/sys interface
---------------
-
-For each address on which a PCF8575 chip was found or forced the following
-files will be created under /sys:
-* /sys/bus/i2c/devices/<bus>-<address>/read
-* /sys/bus/i2c/devices/<bus>-<address>/write
-where bus is the I2C bus number (0, 1, ...) and address is the four-digit
-hexadecimal representation of the 7-bit I2C address of the PCF8575
-(0020 .. 0027).
-
-The read file is read-only. Reading it will trigger an I2C read and will hence
-report the current input state for the pins configured as inputs, and the
-current output value for the pins configured as outputs.

-Accessing PCF8591 via /sys interface
--------------------------------------
-
-! Be careful !
-The PCF8591 is plainly impossible to detect ! Stupid chip.
-So every chip with address in the interval [48..4f] is
-detected as PCF8591. If you have other chips in this address
-range, the workaround is to load this module after the one
-for your others chips.
-
-On detection (i.e. insmod, modprobe et al.), directories are being
-created for each detected PCF8591:
-
-/sys/bus/devices/<0>-<1>/
-where <0> is the bus the chip was detected on (e. g. i2c-0)
-and <1> the chip address ([48..4f])
-
-Inside these directories, there are such files:
-in0, in1, in2, in3, out0_enable, out0_output, name
-
-Name contains chip name.
-
-The in0, in1, in2 and in3 files are RO. Reading gives the value of the
-corresponding channel. Depending on the current analog inputs configuration,
-files in2 and/or in3 do not exist. Values range are from 0 to 255 for single
-ended inputs and -128 to +127 for differential inputs (8-bit ADC).
-
-The out0_enable file is RW. Reading gives "1" for analog output enabled and
-"0" for analog output disabled. Writing accepts "0" and "1" accordingly.
-
-The out0_output file is RW. Writing a number between 0 and 255 (8-bit DAC), send
-the value to the digital-to-analog converter. Note that a voltage will
-only appears on AOUT pin if aout0_enable equals 1. Reading returns the last
-value written.

+How to instantiate I2C devices
+==============================
+
+Unlike PCI or USB devices, I2C devices are not enumerated at the hardware
+level. Instead, the software must know which devices are connected on each
+I2C bus segment, and what address these devices are using. For this
+reason, the kernel code must instantiate I2C devices explicitly. There are
+several ways to achieve this, depending on the context and requirements.
+
+
+Method 1a: Declare the I2C devices by bus number
+------------------------------------------------
+
+This method is appropriate when the I2C bus is a system bus as is the case
+for many embedded systems. On such systems, each I2C bus has a number
+which is known in advance. It is thus possible to pre-declare the I2C
+devices which live on this bus. This is done with an array of struct
+i2c_board_info which is registered by calling i2c_register_board_info().
+
+Example (from omap2 h4):
+
+static struct i2c_board_info h4_i2c_board_info[] __initdata = {
+ {
+ I2C_BOARD_INFO("isp1301_omap", 0x2d),
+ .irq = OMAP_GPIO_IRQ(125),
+ },
+ { /* EEPROM on mainboard */
+ I2C_BOARD_INFO("24c01", 0x52),
+ .platform_data = &m24c01,
+ },
+ { /* EEPROM on cpu card */
+ I2C_BOARD_INFO("24c01", 0x57),
+ .platform_data = &m24c01,
+ },
+};
+
+static void __init omap_h4_init(void)
+{
+ (...)
+ i2c_register_board_info(1, h4_i2c_board_info,
+ ARRAY_SIZE(h4_i2c_board_info));
+ (...)
+}
+
+The above code declares 3 devices on I2C bus 1, including their respective
+addresses and custom data needed by their drivers. When the I2C bus in
+question is registered, the I2C devices will be instantiated automatically
+by i2c-core.
+
+The devices will be automatically unbound and destroyed when the I2C bus
+they sit on goes away (if ever.)
+
+
+Method 1b: Declare the I2C devices via devicetree
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+This method has the same implications as method 1a. The declaration of I2C
+devices is here done via devicetree as subnodes of the master controller.
+
+Example:
+
+ i2c1: i2c@400a0000 {
+ /* ... master properties skipped ... */
+ clock-frequency = <100000>;
+
+ flash@50 {
+ compatible = "atmel,24c256";
+ reg = <0x50>;
+ };
+
+ pca9532: gpio@60 {
+ compatible = "nxp,pca9532";
+ gpio-controller;
+ #gpio-cells = <2>;
+ reg = <0x60>;
+ };
+ };
+
+Here, two devices are attached to the bus using a speed of 100kHz. For
+additional properties which might be needed to set up the device, please refer
+to its devicetree documentation in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/.
+
+
+Method 1c: Declare the I2C devices via ACPI
+-------------------------------------------
+
+ACPI can also describe I2C devices. There is special documentation for this
+which is currently located at Documentation/acpi/enumeration.txt.
+
+
+Method 2: Instantiate the devices explicitly
+--------------------------------------------
+
+This method is appropriate when a larger device uses an I2C bus for
+internal communication. A typical case is TV adapters. These can have a
+tuner, a video decoder, an audio decoder, etc. usually connected to the
+main chip by the means of an I2C bus. You won't know the number of the I2C
+bus in advance, so the method 1 described above can't be used. Instead,
+you can instantiate your I2C devices explicitly. This is done by filling
+a struct i2c_board_info and calling i2c_new_device().
+
+Example (from the sfe4001 network driver):
+
+static struct i2c_board_info sfe4001_hwmon_info = {
+ I2C_BOARD_INFO("max6647", 0x4e),
+};
+
+int sfe4001_init(struct efx_nic *efx)
+{
+ (...)
+ efx->board_info.hwmon_client =
+ i2c_new_device(&efx->i2c_adap, &sfe4001_hwmon_info);
+
+ (...)
+}
+
+The above code instantiates 1 I2C device on the I2C bus which is on the
+network adapter in question.
+
+A variant of this is when you don't know for sure if an I2C device is
+present or not (for example for an optional feature which is not present
+on cheap variants of a board but you have no way to tell them apart), or
+it may have different addresses from one board to the next (manufacturer
+changing its design without notice). In this case, you can call
+i2c_new_probed_device() instead of i2c_new_device().
+
+Example (from the nxp OHCI driver):
+
+static const unsigned short normal_i2c[] = { 0x2c, 0x2d, I2C_CLIENT_END };
+
+static int usb_hcd_nxp_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
+{
+ (...)
+ struct i2c_adapter *i2c_adap;
+ struct i2c_board_info i2c_info;
+
+ (...)
+ i2c_adap = i2c_get_adapter(2);
+ memset(&i2c_info, 0, sizeof(struct i2c_board_info));
+ strlcpy(i2c_info.type, "isp1301_nxp", I2C_NAME_SIZE);
+ isp1301_i2c_client = i2c_new_probed_device(i2c_adap, &i2c_info,
+ normal_i2c, NULL);
+ i2c_put_adapter(i2c_adap);
+ (...)
+}
+
+The above code instantiates up to 1 I2C device on the I2C bus which is on
+the OHCI adapter in question. It first tries at address 0x2c, if nothing
+is found there it tries address 0x2d, and if still nothing is found, it
+simply gives up.
+
+The driver which instantiated the I2C device is responsible for destroying
+it on cleanup. This is done by calling i2c_unregister_device() on the
+pointer that was earlier returned by i2c_new_device() or
+i2c_new_probed_device().
+
+
+Method 3: Probe an I2C bus for certain devices
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Sometimes you do not have enough information about an I2C device, not even
+to call i2c_new_probed_device(). The typical case is hardware monitoring
+chips on PC mainboards. There are several dozen models, which can live
+at 25 different addresses. Given the huge number of mainboards out there,
+it is next to impossible to build an exhaustive list of the hardware
+monitoring chips being used. Fortunately, most of these chips have
+manufacturer and device ID registers, so they can be identified by
+probing.
+
+In that case, I2C devices are neither declared nor instantiated
+explicitly. Instead, i2c-core will probe for such devices as soon as their
+drivers are loaded, and if any is found, an I2C device will be
+instantiated automatically. In order to prevent any misbehavior of this
+mechanism, the following restrictions apply:
+* The I2C device driver must implement the detect() method, which
+ identifies a supported device by reading from arbitrary registers.
+* Only buses which are likely to have a supported device and agree to be
+ probed, will be probed. For example this avoids probing for hardware
+ monitoring chips on a TV adapter.
+
+Example:
+See lm90_driver and lm90_detect() in drivers/hwmon/lm90.c
+
+I2C devices instantiated as a result of such a successful probe will be
+destroyed automatically when the driver which detected them is removed,
+or when the underlying I2C bus is itself destroyed, whichever happens
+first.
+
+Those of you familiar with the i2c subsystem of 2.4 kernels and early 2.6
+kernels will find out that this method 3 is essentially similar to what
+was done there. Two significant differences are:
+* Probing is only one way to instantiate I2C devices now, while it was the
+ only way back then. Where possible, methods 1 and 2 should be preferred.
+ Method 3 should only be used when there is no other way, as it can have
+ undesirable side effects.
+* I2C buses must now explicitly say which I2C driver classes can probe
+ them (by the means of the class bitfield), while all I2C buses were
+ probed by default back then. The default is an empty class which means
+ that no probing happens. The purpose of the class bitfield is to limit
+ the aforementioned undesirable side effects.
+
+Once again, method 3 should be avoided wherever possible. Explicit device
+instantiation (methods 1 and 2) is much preferred for it is safer and
+faster.
+
+
+Method 4: Instantiate from user-space
+-------------------------------------
+
+In general, the kernel should know which I2C devices are connected and
+what addresses they live at. However, in certain cases, it does not, so a
+sysfs interface was added to let the user provide the information. This
+interface is made of 2 attribute files which are created in every I2C bus
+directory: new_device and delete_device. Both files are write only and you
+must write the right parameters to them in order to properly instantiate,
+respectively delete, an I2C device.
+
+File new_device takes 2 parameters: the name of the I2C device (a string)
+and the address of the I2C device (a number, typically expressed in
+hexadecimal starting with 0x, but can also be expressed in decimal.)
+
+File delete_device takes a single parameter: the address of the I2C
+device. As no two devices can live at the same address on a given I2C
+segment, the address is sufficient to uniquely identify the device to be
+deleted.
+
+Example:
+# echo eeprom 0x50 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-3/new_device
+
+While this interface should only be used when in-kernel device declaration
+can't be done, there is a variety of cases where it can be helpful:
+* The I2C driver usually detects devices (method 3 above) but the bus
+ segment your device lives on doesn't have the proper class bit set and
+ thus detection doesn't trigger.
+* The I2C driver usually detects devices, but your device lives at an
+ unexpected address.
+* The I2C driver usually detects devices, but your device is not detected,
+ either because the detection routine is too strict, or because your
+ device is not officially supported yet but you know it is compatible.
+* You are developing a driver on a test board, where you soldered the I2C
+ device yourself.
+
+This interface is a replacement for the force_* module parameters some I2C
+drivers implement. Being implemented in i2c-core rather than in each
+device driver individually, it is much more efficient, and also has the
+advantage that you do not have to reload the driver to change a setting.
+You can also instantiate the device before the driver is loaded or even
+available, and you don't need to know what driver the device needs.

+Kernel driver i2c-gpio-mux
+
+Author: Peter Korsgaard <peter.korsgaard@barco.com>
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+i2c-gpio-mux is an i2c mux driver providing access to I2C bus segments
+from a master I2C bus and a hardware MUX controlled through GPIO pins.
+
+E.G.:
+
+ ---------- ---------- Bus segment 1 - - - - -
+ | | SCL/SDA | |-------------- | |
+ | |------------| |
+ | | | | Bus segment 2 | |
+ | Linux | GPIO 1..N | MUX |--------------- Devices
+ | |------------| | | |
+ | | | | Bus segment M
+ | | | |---------------| |
+ ---------- ---------- - - - - -
+
+SCL/SDA of the master I2C bus is multiplexed to bus segment 1..M
+according to the settings of the GPIO pins 1..N.
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+i2c-gpio-mux uses the platform bus, so you need to provide a struct
+platform_device with the platform_data pointing to a struct
+gpio_i2cmux_platform_data with the I2C adapter number of the master
+bus, the number of bus segments to create and the GPIO pins used
+to control it. See include/linux/i2c-gpio-mux.h for details.
+
+E.G. something like this for a MUX providing 4 bus segments
+controlled through 3 GPIO pins:
+
+#include <linux/i2c-gpio-mux.h>
+#include <linux/platform_device.h>
+
+static const unsigned myboard_gpiomux_gpios[] = {
+ AT91_PIN_PC26, AT91_PIN_PC25, AT91_PIN_PC24
+};
+
+static const unsigned myboard_gpiomux_values[] = {
+ 0, 1, 2, 3
+};
+
+static struct gpio_i2cmux_platform_data myboard_i2cmux_data = {
+ .parent = 1,
+ .base_nr = 2, /* optional */
+ .values = myboard_gpiomux_values,
+ .n_values = ARRAY_SIZE(myboard_gpiomux_values),
+ .gpios = myboard_gpiomux_gpios,
+ .n_gpios = ARRAY_SIZE(myboard_gpiomux_gpios),
+ .idle = 4, /* optional */
+};
+
+static struct platform_device myboard_i2cmux = {
+ .name = "i2c-gpio-mux",
+ .id = 0,
+ .dev = {
+ .platform_data = &myboard_i2cmux_data,
+ },
+};
+
+If you don't know the absolute GPIO pin numbers at registration time,
+you can instead provide a chip name (.chip_name) and relative GPIO pin
+numbers, and the i2c-gpio-mux driver will do the work for you,
+including deferred probing if the GPIO chip isn't immediately
+available.
+
+Device Registration
+-------------------
+
+When registering your i2c-gpio-mux device, you should pass the number
+of any GPIO pin it uses as the device ID. This guarantees that every
+instance has a different ID.
+
+Alternatively, if you don't need a stable device name, you can simply
+pass PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO as the device ID, and the platform core will
+assign a dynamic ID to your device. If you do not know the absolute
+GPIO pin numbers at registration time, this is even the only option.

+I2C device driver binding control from user-space
+=================================================
+
+Up to kernel 2.6.32, many i2c drivers used helper macros provided by
+<linux/i2c.h> which created standard module parameters to let the user
+control how the driver would probe i2c buses and attach to devices. These
+parameters were known as "probe" (to let the driver probe for an extra
+address), "force" (to forcibly attach the driver to a given device) and
+"ignore" (to prevent a driver from probing a given address).
+
+With the conversion of the i2c subsystem to the standard device driver
+binding model, it became clear that these per-module parameters were no
+longer needed, and that a centralized implementation was possible. The new,
+sysfs-based interface is described in the documentation file
+"instantiating-devices", section "Method 4: Instantiate from user-space".
+
+Below is a mapping from the old module parameters to the new interface.
+
+Attaching a driver to an I2C device
+-----------------------------------
+
+Old method (module parameters):
+# modprobe <driver> probe=1,0x2d
+# modprobe <driver> force=1,0x2d
+# modprobe <driver> force_<device>=1,0x2d
+
+New method (sysfs interface):
+# echo <device> 0x2d > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
+
+Preventing a driver from attaching to an I2C device
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+Old method (module parameters):
+# modprobe <driver> ignore=1,0x2f
+
+New method (sysfs interface):
+# echo dummy 0x2f > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
+# modprobe <driver>
+
+Of course, it is important to instantiate the "dummy" device before loading
+the driver. The dummy device will be handled by i2c-core itself, preventing
+other drivers from binding to it later on. If there is a real device at the
+problematic address, and you want another driver to bind to it, then simply
+pass the name of the device in question instead of "dummy".
