After I asked HW team about this restriction, this controller can set the DTDL/SYNCDL in transfer mode. (In other words, the current manual has error about this specification.) So, I would like to send patches for this configurations. < snip > > >> diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/sh-msiof.txt > >> b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/sh-msiof.txt index d11c372..5fe8ffd > >> 100644 > >> --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/sh-msiof.txt > >> +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/sh-msiof.txt > >> @@ -30,6 +30,14 @@ Optional properties: > >> specifiers, one for transmission, and one for > >> reception. > >> - dma-names : Must contain a list of two DMA names, "tx" and > >> "rx". > >> +- renesas,tdmr-dtdl : delay sync signal (setup) in transmit mode > >> + (default is 0, we can set it to 0, 1, 2, 5, or 6) > >> +- renesas,tdmr-syncdl : delay sync signal (hold) in transmit mode > >> + (default is 0, we can set it to 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, or 6) > >> +- renesas,rdmr-dtdl : delay sync signal (setup) in receive mode > >> + (default is 0, we can set it to 0, 1, 2, 5, or 6) > >> +- renesas,rdmr-syncdl : delay sync signal (hold) in receive mode > >> + (default is 0, we can set it to 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, or 6) > > In general, it's frowned upon the specify actual register values in DT. > So I think it's better to specify the delay values instead of the > bitfield values, > and drop the "tdmr" and "rdmr" from the names. Thank you very much for your comment. I understood we can use specify the delay values in DT. > As DT supports integers only, that should become a fixed point value. > E.g. delay in deci-clocks (0, 5, 10, 15, 20)? > Or as a percentage of the clock cycle (0, 50, 100, 150, 200)?

Since MSIOF can set the configurations in transmit actually, I will set the values for transmit mode. > And to answer your last question: if several drivers need this, it makes sense > to make this general, and add support in the SPI core. Mark? I checked the files in Documentation/devicetree/spi/, and then I found 2 files about such configurations: - fsl,csbef and fsl,csaft in fsl-spi.txt: - I already mentions in this RFC patch. - samsung,spi-deedback-delay in spi-samsung.txt: - But it is only affect to miso line?? I don't know about the detail of this parameter. So, almost all drivers doesn't have such configuration at the moment, I think.
