Well, we are using shared interrupts, which is typical for other drivers on the rpi as well - i2c and usb are examples for multiple handlers on a single irq line on the rpi - excerpt from /proc/interrupts: CPU0 33: 3547607286 ARMCTRL-level 41 Edge 20980000.usb, dwc2_hsotg:usb1 77: 0 ARMCTRL-level 85 Edge 20205000.i2c, 20804000.i2c The compute module is not supported upstream and nobody created any patches for a device tree for a cm... On top there is no direct support for uart1 in the upstream kernel. Support only exists in the foundation kernel where the implementation enables the uart1 in the board-config directly, so that uart1 can also get used as the console during boot. This means (as far as I understand) that there can be no race-condition, as spi would get configured later during boot and the access to the enable register is then properly protected against concurrent access when enabling both auxiliar spi devices (and spi2 is only usable on the compute Module - see above for upstream support of the cm) Finally asking for a recommendation with regards to using a bus to arbitrate access to the enable register there was no feedback how this could be get implemented... This last piece is actually one of the last reasons why I have not posted a patch for spi1 and spi2 to the default device-trees for the rpi models yet. (That and the fact that assigning pins in multiple pinctrl groups - i2s and spi1 - gives warnings or errors in dmesg, because i2s is also requiring Gpio 18, 19, 20 and 21 on the model-b-plus device tree - so it can only be either/or not both...) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
