This is not something that most drivers are expected to use, cs_change should only be being used at all for very unusual hardware and it should be used even less frequently for the last transfer in a message. It is fragile and anyone using it really needs to know what they're doing but the feature is there. > I can't understand why it have to keep CS active after the > transmission is completed. Could you please explain this in detail? The feature predates me working on the SPI stack, the obvious examples would be a device that doesn't actually use chip select where you want to avoid all chip select changes or if you need to do some other actions in the middle of a SPI transaction for some reason (which would need a bunch of system level considerations to actually be safe/sensible like making sure you're not sharing the SPI bus). Please fix your mail client to word wrap within paragraphs at something substantially less than 80 columns. Doing this makes your messages much easier to read and reply to.
