Access i2c from u-boot and linux

paul.hein
paul.hein over 7 years ago

Hello i am using a Picozed Board with Petalinux 2016.3.

I followed the PS I2C tutorial and would now want to use this example to access the pmod max44000 i2c device from u-boot and petalinux.

What should i change to make this possible?

so far i get this error under u-boot

 

U-Boot-PetaLinux> i2c bus
Bus -1: i2c@e0004000
U-Boot-PetaLinux> i2c probe
No I2C bus selected
U-Boot-PetaLinux> i2c bus 0
Invalid bus 0: err=-19
U-Boot-PetaLinux> i2c probe
No I2C bus selected
U-Boot-PetaLinux> i2c dev 0
Setting bus to 0
Failure changing bus number (-19)

 

And under linux an

i2cdetect -r 0

shows me no active i2c devices and even the pmod max44000 pins don't even get an i2c signal.

For linux i need to somehow adjust the device tree. But how?
And how can i fix my u-boot problem???

    I somehow got my solution but only partway. 

    using the i2c ps interface under u-boot does still deliver the same error.

    Under Linux i got following solution:

    After enabling the the gpio pin 0 which controlls the mux i can probe the i2c bus. either enable it under u-boot and then boot linux or, enable it on linux following this guide: http://www.wiki.xilinx.com/Linux+GPIO+Driver
