i2c-tools testers wanted
Hi all,
I plan to release i2c-tools 3.0.1 soon (say beginning of April). The most important changes since version 3.0.0 are:
* A new helper script for use with the i2c-stub kernel driver is included. It is named i2c-stub-from-dump and is installed by default. It can be used to feed i2c-stub from a chip register dump previously obtained using i2cdump. This can be very useful when working on a driver for an I2C/SMBus device you don't own.
* A new option to i2cdump, to let the user specify the register range to dump.
* Improvements to decode-dimms, contributed by Trent Piepho. The decoding of DDR2 SDRAM timings is complete now, and SPD data can be read from hexdumps.
* Minor improvements to decode-vaio, in particular support for recent kernels which hide some of the Vaio EEPROM data to non-root users.
Note to packagers:
* Perl scripts have been renamed to omit the trailing .pl (for example decode-dimms.pl is now named decode-dimms). I think it's more user-friendly that way.
Please help test this upcoming version of i2c-tools. You can get the latest SVN snapshot from:
