My understanding reading the code (smbalert_probe within i2c-smbus.c, of_i2c_setup_smbus_alert called when
registering an adapter within i2c-core-smbus.c) is that smbus_alert refers to an interrupt on the
adapter side. That is an interrupt that would be triggered when the adapter is receiving an smbus_alert
message.
In our case (stm32f7), we do not have specific interrupt for that purpose. The interrupt triggered when
an SMBUS Alert is received (by the adapter) is the same interrupt as for other reasons and we check
within the irq handler within stm32f7 the reason before calling i2c_handle_smbus_alert if the status
register indicated an SMBUS Alert.
So my understanding is that we cannot rely on the mechanism of naming an interrupt smbus_alert.
Did I misunderstood something ?
