1 Kernel driver i2c-parport-light

5 This driver is a light version of i2c-parport. It doesn't depend
6 on the parport driver, and uses direct I/O access instead. This might be
7 preferred on embedded systems where wasting memory for the clean but heavy
8 parport handling is not an option. The drawback is a reduced portability
9 and the impossibility to daisy-chain other parallel port devices.

11 Please see i2c-parport for documentation.

13 Module parameters:
14
15 * type: type of adapter (see i2c-parport or modinfo)
16
17 * base: base I/O address
18 Default is 0x378 which is fairly common for parallel ports, at least on PC.
19
20 * irq: optional IRQ
21 This must be passed if you want SMBus alert support, assuming your adapter
22 actually supports this.
