Implementing that would require the SPI core to export something providing access to the memory regions. We don't currently do that, it'd require us to deal with the interaction with access as a SPI device (this hardware often seems to only accelerate reads so we still need to use regular SPI access for writes). > > For me the simplest thing seems like just using one window for all the > > devices, it seems more likely to deliver useful results without the > > system integrator having to think about how to configure this for > > optimisation. > Do you mean single-window mode? I don't see the difference to the other > modes, but that's certainly fine with me if it helps. I don't like having to assign windows per device, like I say it seems like more work.
