[MinnowBoard] drivers/platform/x86/minnowboard.c for MinnowboardMax?

[Yong Li]

Hi Henry,

Thanks for your reply. I am testing a pressure sensor using the MAX board.
It is an IIC device, and the kernel does support it
with drivers/misc/bmp085.c. I really want to use the kernel device driver
to support this device(Using /sys file to query the pressure)

The problem is I do not know how to trigger the driver_probe function.

On ARM platform, there are board/machine .c files, I can add i2c board info
in these files. However I do not know to use the i2c_register_board_info on
X86, is there any examples?.

Yong Li,

Take a look at the mraa<https://github.com/intel-iot-devkit/mraa> library
that supports gpio and i2c for Minnowboard Max. For software that uses this
library see the upm sensor library.<https://github.com/intel-iot-devkit/upm>
There is no support planned for Minnowboard v1.

Regards,

Henry Bruce

Max?

Hi All, I am using the kernel 3.14.19 for my Max, but I did not find the
drivers/platform/x86/minnowboard.c file and other related patches for
Minnowboard, I would like to port them to support the Max board, to add
some other IO devices, such as IIC, SPI and other GPIO devices.

In which version, can I find these files? Is there any other demo drivers
for the IIC/SPI on Minnboard and/or Max board?

Thanks,
Yong Li
