[PATCH RFC 1/5] spi: core: add support to work in Slave mode

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




From: Jiada Wang <jiada_wang@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add support for SPI bus controller to work in slave mode using
the existing SPI master framework.
- SPI device on SPI bus controller with 'spi-slave' property
  declared in DT node represents SPI controller itself to work
  as a slave device and listening to external SPI master devices
- when SPI bus controller works in slave mode, 'chip_select' and
  'max_speed_hz' are not required.
- SPI slave mode continue to use 'struct spi_master'
