Bingo!
Actually, it is 'MODULE_DEPEND(pcf_isa, iicbus, 1, 1, 1);', at least with=20
6.0-RC1, after looking elsewhere I added 'MODULE_VERSION(pcf_isa, 1);' as=20
well. Those ones are not written literally at other places, but nevertheles=
s,=20
this works.
Still, transition from 'sys/i386/isa/pcf.c' to '/sys/dev/pcf/*' solves this=
=20
isue as well, because there it is already fixed.
With Makefile changed to
=2EPATH: =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0${.CURDIR}/../../../../dev/pcf
KMOD =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0=3D pcf
SRCS =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0=3D device_if.h bus_if.h iicbus_if.h isa_if.h \
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 pcf.c pcf_isa.c
=2Einclude <bsd.kmod.mk>
it just works. I changed directly Makefile=20
in /sr/src/sys/modules/i2c/controllers/pcf, just for test, so maybe this is=
=20
not enough, however, it works.
So, the question remains - is anybody out there using pcf devices to confir=
m=20
this really works? For me it compiles and kldloads, but I have no real devi=
ce=20
to test real functionality.
And the other question - is anybody out there using i2c devices at all? If =
so,=20
I would like to hear about their experiences. This area seems to be not=20
covered anywhere. Googling for 'freebsd i2c' and similar does not reveal=20
anything interesting for me...
