Endless data flow on i2c bus

[Paz Offer]

Hi,

I am simulating an i2c slave device, listening on address 0x30.

My intention is that in the hosted Linux OS, my driver will communicate with this (simulated) HW device.

The problem I have is that ever since I start QEMU, and even before the hosted Linux OS was fully loaded, the device receives endless amount of data on the bus:

• Few times stream of 7 bytes,
• Few times stream of 9 bytes,
• Repeat forever...

This continues even after Linux is loaded.

My question is how do I know what is this data and how to ignore it?

Many thanks,

Paz
