The FPC202 dual port controller serves as a low speed signal aggregator for common port types, notably SFP. It provides access to I2C and low-speed GPIO signals of a downstream device through a single upstream control interface. Up to two logical I2C addresses can be accessed on each of the FPC202's ports. The port controller acts as an I2C translator (ATR). It converts addresses of incoming and outgoing I2C transactions. One use case of this is accessing two SFP modules at logical address 0x50 from the same upstream I2C controller, using two different client aliases.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
