Hi, SDP4430 uses a SPI based network chip ks8851. next-20150508: https://github.com/nmenon/kernel-test-logs/blob/next-20150508/omap2plus_defconfig/sdp4430.txt However, next-20150511: https://github.com/nmenon/kernel-test-logs/blob/next-20150511/omap2plus_defconfig/sdp4430.txt Generates infinite "ks8851 spi1.0: ks8851_irq: spi bus error" errors and hangs the platform. Bisected the issue down to the following two commits when reverted allows the board to function: commit b28cb9414db9f8e42ac18c9e360e4e99cda42489 Author: Michael Welling <mwelling@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu May 7 18:36:53 2015 -0500 spi: omap2-mcspi: Switch driver to use transfer_one Switches from transfer_one_message to transfer_one to prepare driver for use of GPIO chip selects.
