18 Description
19 -----------
20 The Tsunami/Typhoon chipsets' "Cchip" supports I2C busses via MPD registers
21 and appropriate open drain pins. This bus is usually used to read
22 SPD SDRAM DIMMs, however there may be other devices on
23 the bus also. These chips are used with wide range of 21264A boards.

25 This driver uses the i2c-algo-bit module which must be
26 modprobed and/or enabled in your kernel
27 (Character Devices -> I2C Support -> I2C Bit-Banging Interfaces).
