[PATCH v2 0/6] spi: Add Renesas SPIBSC controller

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

 



The Renesas SPI Bus Space Controller (SPIBSC) HW was specifically designed for
accessing Serial flash devices (QSPI, HyperFlash, Octa Flash). In the hardware
manuals, it is almost always labeled as the "Renesas SPI Multi I/O Bus Controller".
However, the HW IP is usually referred to within Renesas as the "SPI BSC".
Yes, the R-Car team nicknamed it RPC (for "Reduced Pin Count" flash) after HyperFash
support was added...but I personally think that RPC is not a good name for this
HW block.


This driver has been tested on an RZ/A1H RSK and RZ/A2M EVB.

The testing mostly consisted of formatting an area as JFFS2 and doing copying
of files and such.

While the HW changed a little between the RZ/A1 and RZ/A2 generations, the IP
block in the RZ/A2M was taken from the R-Car H3 design, so in theory this
driver should work for R-Car Gen3 as well.

=========================
Version 2 changes
=========================
* I got rid of all the critical clock stuff. The idea is is that if you are
  planning on using the SPI BSC, even in XIP mode, it should be described in DT.

* There is no actual 'runtime pm' implmented in the driver at the moment, and
  so just the standard enable/disable clock API is used.

* The compatible string "jedec,spi-nor" will be used to determine if a spi controller
  needs to be regitered or not. At the moment there is no setup needed for
  running in XIP mode, so we just need to signal that the peripheral clock should
  be left on and then we're done.
