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:
Jan 1 01:43:58 (none) user.err kernel: i2c-adapter i2c-1: Master timed out. stat = 2a60, cntrl = 000e. Resetting master...

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.
Hi Imran,
As a complementary information regarding the thread that you already found, you could also refer to the following:

Hope this will be useful for you.
Best regards!
