How to instantiate I2C devices ？（即怎么构造i2c_client，4种方法）
——————/法1 Declare the I2C devices by bus number
Example：

static struct i2c_board_info mini2440_i2c_devs[] __initdata = {
	{
		I2C_BOARD_INFO("24c08", 0x50),		
		//据名字可找到驱动、据地址可知访问谁
		.platform_data = &at24c08,<span style="white-space:pre"> //给driver侧probe函数使用
	},
};

i2c_register_board_info(0, mini2440_i2c_devs,ARRAY_SIZE(mini2440_i2c_devs));

i2c_register_board_info(int busnum,struct i2c_board_info *info, unsigned len)
	for (status = 0; len; len--, info++) 	//busnum即哪一适配器
	{
		struct i2c_devinfo	*devinfo;
		devinfo = kzalloc(sizeof(*devinfo), GFP_KERNEL);
		devinfo->busnum = busnum;
		devinfo->board_info = *info;
		list_add_tail(&devinfo->list, &__i2c_board_list);	
	}
	//放入__i2c_board_list链表，在什么时候用？

i2c_scan_static_board_info(struct i2c_adapter *adapter) 	//i2c-core.c
	struct i2c_devinfo	*devinfo;
	list_for_each_entry(devinfo, &__i2c_board_list, list)
	i2c_new_device(adapter,&devinfo->board_info)
		struct i2c_client	*client;
		client = kzalloc(sizeof *client, GFP_KERNEL);
		client->addr = info->addr;
		client->flags = info->flags;	//各种设置
		device_register(&client->dev);

//谁来调用i2c_scan_static_board_info？静态函数，肯定只在本文件使用
i2c_register_adapter 
	i2c_scan_static_board_info(adap);
//注册adapter时，会为预先挂在该adapter上所有设备创建client

使用限制：必须在注册adapter之前注册i2c_board_info
——————/法2 Instantiate the devices explicitly
① 直接调用i2c_new_device
At24cxx_drv.c：

static int __devinit at24cxx_probe(struct i2c_client *client,
				  const struct i2c_device_id *id)
{
	printk("%s %s %d\n", __FILE__, __FUNCTION__, __LINE__);
	return 0;
}

static int __devexit at24cxx_remove(struct i2c_client *client)
{
	printk("%s %s %d\n", __FILE__, __FUNCTION__, __LINE__);
	return 0;
}

static const struct i2c_device_id at24cxx_id_table[] = {
	{ "at24c08", 0 },		//数组，表可支持一个或多个设备
	{}
};

static struct i2c_driver at24cxx_driver = {
	.driver	= {
		.name	= "lyl",	
		//此处名字不重要，id_table中名字重要，因match时根据它
		.owner	= THIS_MODULE,
	},
	.probe		= at24cxx_probe,	//发现能支持的设备后被调用
	.remove		= __devexit_p(at24cxx_remove),	//卸载设备时被调用
	.id_table	= at24cxx_id_table,
};

static int at24cxx_drv_init(void)
{
	i2c_add_driver(&at24cxx_driver);	
	return 0;
}

static void at24cxx_drv_exit(void)
{
	i2c_del_driver(&at24cxx_driver);
}

At24cxx_dev.c:

static struct i2c_board_info at24cxx_info = {	
	I2C_BOARD_INFO("at24c08", 0x50),
};

static struct i2c_client *at24cxx_client;
static int at24cxx_dev_init(void)
{
	struct i2c_adapter *i2c_adap = i2c_get_adapter(0);
	at24cxx_client = i2c_new_device(i2c_adap, &at24cxx_info);
	//在i2c_adap下，创建一个新设备
	i2c_put_adapter(i2c_adap);
	return 0;
}

static void at24cxx_dev_exit(void)
{
	i2c_unregister_device(at24cxx_client);
}

测试：
/mnt # insmod at24cxx_drv.ko
/mnt # insmod at24cxx_dev.ko
/test/at24cxx_drv.c at24cxx_probe 12
/mnt # rmmod at24cxx_dev
/test/at24cxx_drv.c at24cxx_remove 18
总结：i2c_new_device认为设备肯定存在，即便将0x50改为0x60，实验结果同
