-- CAIF SPI porting -
-
-- CAIF SPI basics:
-
-Running CAIF over SPI needs some extra setup, owing to the nature of SPI.
-Two extra GPIOs have been added in order to negotiate the transfers
- between the master and the slave. The minimum requirement for running
-CAIF over SPI is a SPI slave chip and two GPIOs (more details below).
-Please note that running as a slave implies that you need to keep up
-with the master clock. An overrun or underrun event is fatal.
-
-- CAIF SPI framework:
-
-To make porting as easy as possible, the CAIF SPI has been divided in
-two parts. The first part (called the interface part) deals with all
-generic functionality such as length framing, SPI frame negotiation
-and SPI frame delivery and transmission. The other part is the CAIF
-SPI slave device part, which is the module that you have to write if
-you want to run SPI CAIF on a new hardware. This part takes care of
-the physical hardware, both with regard to SPI and to GPIOs.
-
-- Implementing a CAIF SPI device:
-
- - Functionality provided by the CAIF SPI slave device:
-
- In order to implement a SPI device you will, as a minimum,
- need to implement the following
- functions:
-
- int (*init_xfer) (struct cfspi_xfer * xfer, struct cfspi_dev *dev):
-
- This function is called by the CAIF SPI interface to give
- you a chance to set up your hardware to be ready to receive
- a stream of data from the master. The xfer structure contains
- both physical and logical addresses, as well as the total length
- of the transfer in both directions.The dev parameter can be used
- to map to different CAIF SPI slave devices.
-
- void (*sig_xfer) (bool xfer, struct cfspi_dev *dev):
-
- This function is called by the CAIF SPI interface when the output
- (SPI_INT) GPIO needs to change state. The boolean value of the xfer
- variable indicates whether the GPIO should be asserted (HIGH) or
- deasserted (LOW). The dev parameter can be used to map to different CAIF
- SPI slave devices.
-
- - Functionality provided by the CAIF SPI interface:
-
- void (*ss_cb) (bool assert, struct cfspi_ifc *ifc);
-
- This function is called by the CAIF SPI slave device in order to
- signal a change of state of the input GPIO (SS) to the interface.
- Only active edges are mandatory to be reported.
- This function can be called from IRQ context (recommended in order
- not to introduce latency). The ifc parameter should be the pointer
- returned from the platform probe function in the SPI device structure.
-
- void (*xfer_done_cb) (struct cfspi_ifc *ifc);
-
- This function is called by the CAIF SPI slave device in order to
- report that a transfer is completed. This function should only be
- called once both the transmission and the reception are completed.
- This function can be called from IRQ context (recommended in order
- not to introduce latency). The ifc parameter should be the pointer
- returned from the platform probe function in the SPI device structure.
-
- - Connecting the bits and pieces:
-
- - Filling in the SPI slave device structure:
-
- Connect the necessary callback functions.
- Indicate clock speed (used to calculate toggle delays).
- Chose a suitable name (helps debugging if you use several CAIF
- SPI slave devices).
- Assign your private data (can be used to map to your structure).
-
- - Filling in the SPI slave platform device structure:
- Add name of driver to connect to ("cfspi_sspi").
- Assign the SPI slave device structure as platform data.
-
-- Padding:
-
-In order to optimize throughput, a number of SPI padding options are provided.
-Padding can be enabled independently for uplink and downlink transfers.
-Padding can be enabled for the head, the tail and for the total frame size.
-The padding needs to be correctly configured on both sides of the link.
-The padding can be changed via module parameters in cfspi_sspi.c or via
-the sysfs directory of the cfspi_sspi driver (before device registration).
