[PATCH] hw/nvram: at24 return 0xff if 1 byte address
Posted by Patrick Venture 2 years, 4 months ago
The at24 eeproms are 2 byte devices that return 0xff when they are read
from with a partial (1-byte) address written.  This distinction was
found comparing model behavior to real hardware testing.

Tested: `i2ctransfer -f -y 45 w1@85 0 r1` returns 0xff instead of next
byte

Alternatively (matter of taste, I find it easier to read):

       case I2C_START_SEND:
       case I2C_FINISH:
           ee->haveaddr = 0;
           /* fallthrough */
       case I2C_START_RECV:

Don't we need to increase ee->haveaddr?

Here for parity with send, what about:

    if (ee->haveaddr < 2) {
        ret = 0xff;
        ee->haveaddr++;
    } else {
        ret = ee->mem[ee->cur];
        ee->cur = (ee->cur + 1u) % ee->rsize;
    }

?

That may be easier to read :) I'm not sure, but I'm willing to bend and
change my patch to behave this way.  Sometimes the fallthrough things leads
to compiler annoyances in my experience.  We might  need
__attribute__(fallthrough) or the like to convince the system that's what
we really want.

We don't because the call to recv doesn't set any addr bytes.  This patch
is primarily a behavioral fix to handle the device being treated as 8-bit
addressable.  This is typically tested by writing a 1 byte address and then
trying to read.  The chip itself will not have enough address bytes and
reject this read by returning 0xff.  The haveaddr variable is strictly
updated when they've written another byte to the address, or they've
changed states in such a way that should clear any previously written
address.  You can read from an eeprom by just reading or by setting an
address and then reading.

Yes. And your approach is simple enough.
