1 Many, many things. Most notably:
2
3 * At least the bit-lp and bit-velle modules do no detection on loading;
4   ask Simon whether this is possible to add.
5 * kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL can cause a context switch! Check whether this is
6   safe everywhere it is used.
7 * Support 10-bit addresses. At this moment, they are supported nowhere, except
8   in Simon Vogl's i2c modules.
9 * Change the i2c modules to keep the namespace clean (EXPORT_SYMBOL does not
10   work for us; many static declarations need to be added; better ask Simon
11   Vogl first)
12 * Make it SMP-safe: there are no spinlocks yet. They are needed at many
13   places, probably (everywhere where global vars are accessed). This must be
14   done for the i2c modules, too.
15 * Make lm78.c detect 'double hits', (same chip connected to both SMBus and
16   ISA).
17 * Better chip detection; insmod-time paramters to set addresses
18   (difficult, because of all i2c busses!).
19 * Registrate which i2c addresses are used (a la ISA) for each adapter.
20 * Rename i2c-proc.c to i2c-user.c, and extend it with /dev entries;
21   or, create a better i2c-dev.c, that understands SMBus commands.
22 * Write all other drivers
23 * How to make drivers detect thing *not*; for example, if a Winbond is
24   present, the LM75 driver should not try to access its simulated
25   LM75 chips.
26 * Write a userland-library for SMBus/i2c access (through the /dev interface)
27 * Write a userland detection program for busses (clients are less important;
28   but perhaps needed too).
29 * Some library routines are pretty inefficient right now
