Re: ACPI SPI slave device

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

 



The device does have SPISerialbus() in _CRS.

Looks like this guy is having the same issue.

"Slave devices were not enumerated by ACPI data because the ACPI handle
for the spi-pxa2xx controller was NULL if it was itself enumerated by
PCI.

Upstream-status: Inappropriate, real fix forthcoming"


I'm going to try out his patch and see what happens..
