The Altera Arria10 SoC requires 32 bit accesses to peripherals. The
DesignWare SPI peripheral registers are on 32bit boundaries so this
patch is minimal. Function pointers are used to select 32bit access
or 16bit accesses.


So, what is exactly the issue when we read only half of the register?
Bus lock, or what?


The read actually works on our chip but I changed both read and write to
be consistent. For Arria10, on a 16 bit write the data isn't written
into the DesignWare register.

How did you exactly check this?


Sorry, I should have been more clear. The architecture of the Arria10 SoC enforces 32 bit writes - even for the APB bus. The Arria10's interconnect only allows 32 bit writes.

As a result, the solution below doesn't work for us.

I do have a much cleaner patch to re-submit but I haven't applied it on top of your patches yet & tested yet.


In reply to your other email, yes it does support the DW_apb_ssi but the
Arria10 architecture requires 32 bit access (actually as you point out,
32 bit writes). We're using the original driver on our older chips but
Arria10 requires upstream changes.

Can you check if the following helps in your case:
