According to include/linux/dvb/version.h we call it "DVB_API_VERSION 3". > My idea is to extend the dvb_i2c layer with some kind of gateway/bridge to the > linux i2c layer. dvb_i2c will try to probe its internal busses first and then > fallback to linux i2c if no devices could be attached. > > Would you accept a patch for that?

Holger was mumbling something about a wrapper driver, like the one Ralph mentions in his posting. But I don't know the details, so I leave it up to Holger to answer that (tomorrow, Holger's taken the day off). > This opens up another question: Is there a required module load order?

AFAICT there's no required load order. dvb_register_i2c_bus() does a probe_devices_on_bus(), dvb_register_i2c_device() does probe_device_on_all_busses().
