I2C地址限制

在调试一个I2C触摸屏的驱动时，它的I2C地址为0X01，最后查找发现在\linux-3.0\drivers\i2c\i2c-core.c中有检测I2C地址是否可用

就是下面的函数：

/* And this is a strict address validity check, used when probing. If a

 * device uses a reserved address, then it shouldn't be probed. 7-bit

 * addressing is assumed, 10-bit address devices are rare and should be

 * explicitly enumerated. */

static int i2c_check_addr_validity(unsigned short addr)

/*

* Reserved addresses per I2C specification:

*  0x00       General call address / START byte

*  0x01       CBUS address

*  0x02       Reserved for different bus format

*  0x03       Reserved for future purposes

*  0x04-0x07  Hs-mode master code

*  0x78-0x7b  10-bit slave addressing

*  0x7c-0x7f  Reserved for future purposes

*/

#if !defined(CONFIG_ARCH_SUN4I)

if (addr < 0x08 || addr > 0x77)

#else

    if (addr < 0x03 || addr > 0x77)

#endif

        return -EINVAL;

return 0;

}

同样在linux2.6.36 中也存在I2C地址的合法性的检测 \linux-3.0\drivers\i2c\i2c-core.c中

/* Make sure the address is valid */

if (addr < 0x03 || addr > 0x77) {

dev_warn(&adapter->dev, "Invalid probe address 0x%02x\n",

addr);

return -EINVAL;

}
