The patch titled atmel_spi: reload RCR before TCR has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is atmel_spi-reload-rcr-before-tcr.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: atmel_spi: reload RCR before TCR From: Rini van Zetten <rini@xxxxxxxx> We have a wifi module connected to the spi bus and got sometimes FIFO overrun errors on the spi bus. After some investigation i found that the driver loads the TCR (transmit count) register before the RCR (receive count). When the transfer list is not empty the atmel_spi_next_message is called while tx and rx are enabled. As soon as the TCR is loaded, hardware starts transfer and causes a rx fifo overrun because the RCR is not loaded yet. Load the RCR before the TCR. After this patch the fifo overrun disapears at out setup.
