6 than a straight-forward I2C bus with one adapter and one or more devices.
10 1. A mux may be needed on the bus to prevent address collisions.
25 I2C transfers, and all adapters with a parent are part of an "i2c-mux"
28 Depending of the particular mux driver, something happens when there is
29 an I2C transfer on one of its child adapters. The mux driver can
30 obviously operate a mux, but it can also do arbitration with an external
31 bus master or open a gate. The mux driver has two operations for this,
40 mux-locked or parent-locked muxes.
43 Mux-locked muxes
44 ----------------
46 Mux-locked muxes does not lock the entire parent adapter during the
47 full select-transfer-deselect transaction, only the muxes on the parent
48 adapter are locked. Mux-locked muxes are mostly interesting if the
50 their tasks. Since the parent adapter is not fully locked during the
52 stages of the transaction. This has the benefit that the mux driver

73 3. M1 calls ->select to ready the mux.
79 6. M1 calls ->deselect, if it has one.
80 7. Same rules as in step 4, but for ->deselect.
87 Mux-locked caveats
90 When using a mux-locked mux, be aware of the following restrictions:
93 If you build a topology with a mux-locked mux being the parent
94 of a parent-locked mux, this might break the expectation from the
95 parent-locked mux that the root adapter is locked during the
100 mux-locked muxes that are not siblings, when there are address
102 non-sibling muxes.
104 I.e. the select-transfer-deselect transaction targeting e.g. device
105 address 0x42 behind mux-one may be interleaved with a similar
106 operation targeting device address 0x42 behind mux-two. The
108 be that mux-one and mux-two should not be selected simultaneously,
109 but mux-locked muxes do not guarantee that in all topologies.
112 A mux-locked mux cannot be used by a driver for auto-closing
118 If any non-I2C operation in the mux driver changes the I2C mux state,
121 behind the mux, when an unrelated I2C transfer is in flight during
122 the non-I2C mux-changing operation.
125 Parent-locked muxes
126 -------------------
128 Parent-locked muxes lock the parent adapter during the full select-
129 transfer-deselect transaction. The implication is that the mux driver

160 7. M1 calls ->deselect, if it has one.
161 8. Same rules as in step 5, but for ->deselect.
165 This means that accesses to both D2 and D3 are locked out for the full
168 Parent-locked Caveats
171 When using a parent-locked mux, be aware of the following restrictions:
174 If you build a topology with a parent-locked mux being the child
175 of another mux, this might break a possible assumption from the
176 child mux that the root adapter is unused between its select op
177 and the actual transfer (e.g. if the child mux is auto-closing
178 and the parent mux issues I2C transfers as part of its select).
179 This is especially the case if the parent mux is mux-locked, but
180 it may also happen if the parent mux is parent-locked.
