no /proc/bus/i2c but i2c-core module loaded + small oops

Hello,

Symptoms: modprobe i2c-core works fine but /proc/bus/i2c doesn't exist

Kernel : Stock 2.6.0-test5-mm2
Distro : Debian Sid + 2.8 lm-sensors user space utilities
Hardware: Dell WS 530MT SMP Xeon 1.5 Ghz, Intel Motherboard Chipset: 82801BA , ADM1023

	  00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM SMBus (rev 04)

Also while rmmoding i2c-dev module, i got the following message:

Device class 'i2c-0' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed. Badness in class_dev_release at drivers/base/class.c:200

/proc/bus/i2c will never exist :)

lmsensors has not been ported to 2.6 yet, sorry. Look in /sys/bus/i2c for the devices and sensors.

bah, forget to fix this one up. Will get to it in the next few days.

thanks,

Well, ok :) No need to say that i didn't follow closely recent evolutions regarding i2c. I just read but documentation but obviously not for the right kernel :)

Bye,

Go check out sysfs. i2c no longer uses proc. AFAIK system related proc entries will all move to sysfs.

No idea about the rmmod error.
