Description

The existing odroid-c4 specific i2c overlay files that are shipped with Armbian 25.5.2 bookworm do not enable i2c functionality.
Applying this small modification to the source files, adding to the system and rebooting, i2c functionality is observed and able to be used.

How Has This Been Tested?

  • Apply the original dtbo overlays. After a reboot, observe that i2c functionality is not enabled.
  • Apply the fixed dts, compile to dtbo. After a reboot, observe that i2c functionality is enabled.
  • Using existing overlay files, both meson-sm1-odroid-c4-i2c0.dtbo and meson-sm1-odroid-c4-i2c1.dtbo from /boot/dtb-6.12.32-current-meson64/amlogic/overlay/ with a /boot/armbianEnv.txt like so:
verbosity=1
console=both
overlay_prefix=meson
rootdev=UUID=4d762a48-122d-482b-9803-7eabc89c2bd8
rootfstype=ext4
user_overlays=
overlays=meson-sm1-odroid-c4-i2c0 meson-sm1-odroid-c4-i2c1
usbstoragequirks=0x2537:0x1066:u,0x2537:0x1068:u

After a reboot, observe:

~# ls -al /sys/class/i2c-dev/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 0 Dec 31  1969 .
drwxr-xr-x 72 root root 0 Dec 31  1969 ..
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 0 Dec 31  1969 i2c-0 -> ../../devices/platform/soc/ff600000.bus/ff600000.hdmi-tx/i2c-0/i2c-dev/i2c-0
  • Using the included fixed overlay files, both meson-sm1-odroid-c4-i2c0.dtso and meson-sm1-odroid-c4-i2c1.dtso (files renamed to *.dts on my test system to allow armbian-add-overlay compatibility) with a /boot/armbianEnv.txt like so:
verbosity=1
console=both
overlay_prefix=meson
rootdev=UUID=4d762a48-122d-482b-9803-7eabc89c2bd8
rootfstype=ext4
user_overlays=meson-sm1-odroid-c4-i2c0 meson-sm1-odroid-c4-i2c1
overlays=
usbstoragequirks=0x2537:0x1066:u,0x2537:0x1068:u

After a reboot, observe:

~# ls -al /sys/class/i2c-dev/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 0 Dec 31  1969 .
drwxr-xr-x 72 root root 0 Dec 31  1969 ..
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 0 Dec 31  1969 i2c-0 -> ../../devices/platform/soc/ffd00000.bus/ffd1d000.i2c/i2c-0/i2c-dev/i2c-0
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 0 Dec 31  1969 i2c-1 -> ../../devices/platform/soc/ffd00000.bus/ffd1c000.i2c/i2c-1/i2c-dev/i2c-1
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 0 Dec 31  1969 i2c-2 -> ../../devices/platform/soc/ff600000.bus/ff600000.hdmi-tx/i2c-2/i2c-dev/i2c-2

We can see that the i2c-0 and i2c-1 devices are now present, and they are aliased as expected to maintain HardKernel compatibility (i.e. i2c2 is aliased to i2c-0 and i2c3 is aliased to i2c-1).

Important

Review skipped

Review was skipped due to path filters

⛔ Files ignored due to path filters (2)
  • patch/kernel/archive/meson64-6.12/overlay/meson-sm1-odroid-c4-i2c0.dtso is excluded by !patch/**
  • patch/kernel/archive/meson64-6.12/overlay/meson-sm1-odroid-c4-i2c1.dtso is excluded by !patch/**

CodeRabbit blocks several paths by default. You can override this behavior by explicitly including those paths in the path filters. For example, including **/dist/** will override the default block on the dist directory, by removing the pattern from both the lists.

You can disable this status message by setting the reviews.review_status to false in the CodeRabbit configuration file.

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
    • Explain this complex logic.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai explain this code block.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and explain its main purpose.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
    • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.
