Setting i2c bus 2 speed

[Mark A. Yoder]

I'd like to change the i2c bus 2 to 400kHz.

I see it's currently running at 100kHz.

bone$ dmesg | grep i2c

[    0.622594] omap_i2c 44e0b000.i2c: could not find pctldev for node /ocp/l4_wkup@44c00000/scm@210000/pinmux@800/pinmux_i2c0_pins, deferring probe

[    0.625035] omap_i2c 4819c000.i2c: bus 2 rev0.11 at 100 kHz

[    1.544568] omap_i2c 44e0b000.i2c: bus 0 rev0.11 at 400 kHz

The speed appears to be set here:

bone$ uname -a

Linux beaglebone 4.14.52-ti-rt-r60 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jun 26 23:28:55 UTC 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux

bone$ cd /opt/source/dtb-4.14-ti/src/arm/

Looking in  am335x-bone-common.dtsi I see:

&i2c2 {

        pinctrl-names = "default";

        //pinctrl-0 = <&i2c2_pins>;

        pinctrl-0 = <>;

        status = "okay";

        clock-frequency = <100000>;

I assume I can change the clock-frequency to 400000.

But what do I do next?  I don't see am335x-bone-common.dtsi in /boot//boot/dtbs/4.14.52-ti-r60.

Or, is there way way to change the clock after booting?

Thanks...

Correct, after bootup, you can't currently change that.. Some users
have been using the i2c-fast overlay from the bb.org-overlay repo..

Well, uboot_overlay_addr4=/lib/firmware/BB-I2C2-FAST-00A0.dtbo works!

Unfortunately I now need to use i2c bus 1 on pins P9_24 and P9_26.  BB-I2C1-FAST-00A0.dtbo is set up for P9_17 and P9_18.

It's not hard to edit the source, but how do I compile it so it find the include files?

Give this a try..

Download it into:

cd /opt/source/bb.org-overlays/src/arm/
git pull
wget ^ file...
cd ../../
make
sudo make install

That compiled and worked fine.  I2C1 is now 400kHz, but I can't config my other pins:

P9_18 pinmux file not found!

What did I do wrong?

It's working.  i2c1 is now at 400kHz.

Thanks...
