Setting smb_dbg_probe to 1 will enable debugging of the probing and
detection process for BMCs on the SMBusses.
-Discovering the IPMI compilant BMC on the SMBus can cause devices
+Discovering the IPMI compliant BMC on the SMBus can cause devices
on the I2C bus to fail. The SMBus driver writes a "Get Device ID" IPMI
message as a block write to the I2C bus and waits for a response.
This action can be detrimental to some I2C devices. It is highly recommended
that the known I2c address be given to the SMBus driver in the smb_addr
-parameter. The default adrress range will not be used when a smb_addr
+parameter. The default address range will not be used when a smb_addr
parameter is provided.
When compiled into the kernel, the addresses can be specified on the
