Hi all,
I'm trying to write a kernel device driver for a Freescale imx6 processor based board.
This driver is using spi to communicate with a radio module (using linux spi.c).
I managed to wr/rd from the module, however once I'm trying to read more than 64 bytes I'm getting coruppted data. here are some details:
The SPI reading process goes as follows:
1. Interrupt function is invoked from SPI device via
dedicated GPIO line.
2. The interrupt function performs asynchronous SPI
read in the following order:
2.1 radio_trx_end_callback is called, as it is the registered call
back function.
2.2 radio_trx_end_callback calls hal_frame_read function
which prepares spi_message and spi_transfer structures and fill them
with relevant data: spi_device , data tx, transfer len , complete handler
, …
3. The read itself is done by calling to function
spi_async
4. The completion handler function is called and prints the
read message, but trying to read more than 64 bytes in one transaction
causes the read data to be corrupted.
Any idea why am I seeing this behavior ?
Is there (in Linux) any definition for the size to be read via the SPI ?
The relevant variables and functions can be seen below:
Thanks in advance for helping..
