spi: new spi->mode bits

2009-07-01T01:56:00+00:00

Add two new spi_device.mode bits to accomodate more protocol options, and
pass them through to usermode drivers:

 * SPI_NO_CS ... a second 3-wire variant, where the chipselect
   line is removed instead of a data line; transfers are still
   full duplex.

   This obviously has STRONG protocol implications since the
   chipselect transitions can't be used to synchronize state
   transitions with the SPI master.

 * SPI_READY ... defines open drain signal that's pulled low
   to pause the clock.  This defines a 5-wire variant (normal
   4-wire SPI plus READY) and two 4-wire variants (READY plus
   each of the 3-wire flavors).

   Such hardware flow control can be a big win.  There are ADC
   converters and flash chips that expose READY signals, but not
   many host controllers support it today.

The spi_bitbang code should be changed to use SPI_NO_CS instead of its
current nonportable hack.  That's a mode most hardware can easily support
(unlike SPI_READY).

spi: documentation: emphasise spi_master.setup() semantics

2009-04-21T20:41:50+00:00

This is a doc-only patch which I hope will reduce the number of
spi_master controller driver patches starting out with a common
implementation bug.

(As in: almost every spi_master driver I see starts out with its
version of this bug.  Sigh.)

It just re-emphasizes that the setup() method may be called for one
device while a transfer is active on another ...  which means that most
driver implementations shouldn't touch any registers.

hwmon: (lm70) Code streamlining and cleanup

2009-01-07T15:37:34+00:00

This fixes a byteswap bug in the LM70 temperature sensor driver,
which was previously covered up by a converse bug in the driver
for the LM70EVAL-LLP board (which is also fixed).

Other fixes:  doc updates, remove an annoying msleep(), and improve
three-wire protocol handling.

pxa2xx_spi: fix chip_info defaults and documentation.

2008-10-16T18:21:38+00:00

Make the chip info structure data optional by providing reasonable
defaults.  Improve corresponding documentation, and highlight the drawback
of not providing explicit chipselect control.

DMA can determine appropriate dma_burst_size and thresholds automatically
so use DMA even if dma_burst_size is not specified.

docsrc: build Documentation/ sources

2008-08-12T23:07:30+00:00

Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot
since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in
text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them.  This needs to
be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code
instead of bad examples.

Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir.
Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol.

Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the
Documentation/ sources.  Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system.
However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need
to be installed (for userspace builds).

Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32,
sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.
