Hi ,
I am using a custom board based on LPC3250FET296 . It is running Linux 3.18 kernel.
I am seeing i2c bus hangs with the following messages:

After googling a bit I found the following thread:
https://community.nxp.com/thread/316813
This talks about recovering the i2c bus by making the master send 9 clock pulses. I see that some of the i2c controllers have (ST, OMAP etc.) have implemented the recovery mechanism but the recovery mechanism is not implemented for
Philips-IP3204 I2C controllers.
Just wanted to know if someone has tried this out. From my understanding of the data sheet apparently GPIO functionality is not available for SCL pin here.
