Annotated Snippet
=========================
Kernel driver i2c-ali1563
=========================
Supported adapters:
* Acer Labs, Inc. ALI 1563 (south bridge)
Datasheet: Now under NDA
http://www.ali.com.tw/
Author: Patrick Mochel <mochel@digitalimplant.org>
Description
-----------
This is the driver for the SMB Host controller on Acer Labs Inc. (ALI)
M1563 South Bridge.
For an overview of these chips see http://www.acerlabs.com
The M1563 southbridge is deceptively similar to the M1533, with a few
notable exceptions. One of those happens to be the fact they upgraded the
i2c core to be SMBus 2.0 compliant, and happens to be almost identical to
the i2c controller found in the Intel 801 south bridges.
Features
--------
This driver controls the SMB Host only. This driver does not use
interrupts.
Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
