Hi Paolo

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, i meant that. Probably i should elaborate a little of what i found out so 
far (without beeing to aquainted with USB low level stuff):
* i2c-tiny-usb is a low speed device
* low speed devices use at maximum 8 bytes ?
* i2c-tiny-usb has no transport endpoints, just a usb control
* I would expect that the statement:
       DPRINTF("%x %x %x %x %x %x %x %x %x %x %x\n", value, request, length,
       data[0], data[1], data[2], data[3], data[4], data[5], data[6],data[7]);
would print out the address somewhere. 
* doing an access with different addresses (i2cget 0 0x50 vs. i2cget 0 0x51) 
gives the same debug output. So the address data must be hidden somewhere 
else? Probably USBPacket?

So my question could be refined where else in the qemu data structures, the 
address might still be hidden? (Or what in my assumptions is wrong so that i 
don't see the address.)

I had been looking at the sources of i2c-tiny-usb and the linux driver. I 
haven't got though all the layers of the linux infrastructure and i also could 
not map the input i see to the code in the usb dongle so far...

Best regards
Tim

PS: The debug output of the code looks like that:
i2cget -y 0 0x57
