This driver is a light version of i2c-parport. It doesn't depend
|
||
|
|
on the parport driver, and uses direct I/O access instead. This might be
|
||
|
|
preferred on embedded systems where wasting memory for the clean but heavy
|
||
|
|
parport handling is not an option. The drawback is a reduced portability
|
||
|
|
and the impossibility to daisy-chain other parallel port devices.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please see i2c-parport for documentation.

Module parameters:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* type: type of adapter (see i2c-parport or modinfo)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* base: base I/O address
|
||
|
|
Default is 0x378 which is fairly common for parallel ports, at least on PC.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* irq: optional IRQ
|
||
|
|
This must be passed if you want SMBus alert support, assuming your adapter
|
||
|
|
actually supports this.
