The patch spi: fsl-espi: make better use of the RX FIFO has been applied to the spi tree at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From e508cea45bc31de87b35180a9ba5ef9572ffde3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2016 21:27:56 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] spi: fsl-espi: make better use of the RX FIFO So far an interrupt is triggered whenever there's at least one byte in the RX FIFO. This results in a unnecessarily high number of interrupts. Change this to generate an interrupt if - RX FIFO is half full (except if all bytes to read fit into the RX FIFO anyway) - end of transfer has been reached This way the number of interrupts can be significantly reduced.
