32422d05daSIan Lepore.Sh NAME
33422d05daSIan Lepore.Nm iic_gpiomux
34422d05daSIan Lepore.Nd driver for I2C mux hardware controlled via GPIO
35422d05daSIan Lepore.Sh SYNOPSIS
36422d05daSIan LeporeTo compile this driver into the kernel,
37422d05daSIan Leporeplace the following line in your
38422d05daSIan Leporekernel configuration file:
39422d05daSIan Lepore.Bd -ragged -offset indent
40422d05daSIan Lepore.Cd "device iic_gpiomux"
41422d05daSIan Lepore.Ed
42422d05daSIan Lepore.Pp
43422d05daSIan LeporeAlternatively, to load the driver as a
44422d05daSIan Leporemodule at boot time, place the following line in
45422d05daSIan Lepore.Xr loader.conf 5 :
46422d05daSIan Lepore.Bd -literal -offset indent
47422d05daSIan Leporeiic_gpiomux_load="YES"

49422d05daSIan Lepore.Sh DESCRIPTION
50422d05daSIan LeporeThe
51422d05daSIan Lepore.Nm
52422d05daSIan Leporedriver supports any type of I2C bus multiplexer (mux) hardware that
53422d05daSIan Leporeis controlled by manipulating the state of one or more GPIO pins.
54422d05daSIan LeporeIt automatically connects an upstream I2C bus to one of the downstream
55422d05daSIan Leporebuses as needed when slave devices on the downstream buses initiate I/O.
56422d05daSIan LeporeMore information on the automatic switching behavior is available in
57422d05daSIan Lepore.Xr iicmux 4 .
58422d05daSIan Lepore.Sh FDT CONFIGURATION
59422d05daSIan LeporeOn an
60422d05daSIan Lepore.Xr fdt 4
61422d05daSIan Leporebased system, an
62422d05daSIan Lepore.Nm
63422d05daSIan Leporedevice node may be defined as a child node of any arbitrary bus
64422d05daSIan Leporein the FDT data.
65422d05daSIan LeporeThe
66422d05daSIan Lepore.Va i2c-parent
67422d05daSIan Leporeproperty indicates the connection to the upstream I2C bus.
68422d05daSIan LeporeThe children of the
69422d05daSIan Lepore.Nm
70422d05daSIan Leporenode are additional i2c buses, which will have their own i2c slave
71422d05daSIan Leporedevices described in their child nodes.
72422d05daSIan Lepore.Pp
73422d05daSIan LeporeThe
74422d05daSIan Lepore.Nm
75422d05daSIan Leporedriver conforms to the standard
