10      I2C (pronounce: I-squared-C) is a slow serial bus protocol used in
11      many micro controller applications and developed by Philips. SMBus,
12      or System Management Bus is a subset of the I2C protocol. More
13      information is contained in the directory <file:Documentation/i2c/>,
14      especially in the file called "summary" there.
15
16      Both I2C and SMBus are supported here. You will need this for
17      hardware sensors support, and also for Video For Linux support.
18
19      If you want I2C support, you should say Y here and also to the
20      specific driver for your bus adapter(s) below.
21
22      This I2C support can also be built as a module. If so, the module
23      will be called i2c-core.

33    default y
34    help
35      Say Y here if you intend to run lm-sensors 3.1.1 or older, or any
36      other user-space package which expects i2c adapters to be class
37      devices. If you don't know, say Y.
38
39config I2C_CHARDEV
40    tristate "I2C device interface"
41    help
42      Say Y here to use i2c-* device files, usually found in the /dev
43      directory on your system. They make it possible to have user-space
44      programs use the I2C bus. Information on how to do this is
45      contained in the file <file:Documentation/i2c/dev-interface>.
46
47      This support is also available as a module. If so, the module
48      will be called i2c-dev.
49
50config I2C_MUX
51    tristate "I2C bus multiplexing support"
52    help
53      Say Y here if you want the I2C core to support the ability to
54      handle multiplexed I2C bus topologies, by presenting each
55      multiplexed segment as a I2C adapter.
56
57      This support is also available as a module. If so, the module
58      will be called i2c-mux.

62config I2C_HELPER_AUTO
63    bool "Autoselect pertinent helper modules"
64    default y
65    help
66      Some I2C bus drivers require so-called "I2C algorithm" modules
67      to work. These are basically software-only abstractions of generic
68      I2C interfaces. This option will autoselect them so that you don't
69      have to care.
70
71      Unselect this only if you need to enable additional helper
72      modules, for example for use with external I2C bus drivers.
73
74      In doubt, say Y.

76config I2C_SMBUS
77    tristate "SMBus-specific protocols" if !I2C_HELPER_AUTO
78    help
79      Say Y here if you want support for SMBus extensions to the I2C
80      specification. At the moment, the only supported extension is
81      the SMBus alert protocol.
82
83      This support is also available as a module. If so, the module
84      will be called i2c-smbus.

94      problem with I2C support and want to see more of what is going on.
