[PATCH v3] spi: orion.c: Add direct access mode

Stefan Roese sr at denx.de
Thu Apr 7 05:06:51 PDT 2016


This patch adds support for the direct access mode to the Orion SPI
driver which is used on the Marvell Armada based SoCs. In this direct
mode, all data written to (or read from) a specifically mapped MBus
window (linked to one SPI chip-select on one of the SPI controllers)
will be transferred directly to the SPI bus. Without the need to control
the SPI registers in between. This can improve the SPI transfer rate in
such cases.

Both, direct-read and -write mode are supported. But only the write
mode has been tested. This mode especially benefits from the SPI direct
mode, as the data bytes are written head-to-head to the SPI bus,
without any additional addresses.

One use-case for this direct write mode is, programming a FPGA bitstream
image into the FPGA connected to the SPI bus at maximum speed.

This mode is described in chapter "22.5.2 Direct Write to SPI" in the
Marvell Armada XP Functional Spec Datasheet.

v3:
- Used static MBus windows again, as suggested by Arnd
- No new DT bindings needed for this. The MBus windows need to be
  configured in the 'reg' property of the SPI controller. This is
  done in a separate patch for the Armada platforms.
- The direct mapping is configured and enable by adding the
  specific MBus entry to the 'ranges' property of the 'soc' node
  in the board dts file.

v2:
- Use one MBus window for each SPI controller instead of one for
  for each SPI device. This MBus window is re-assigned, once the
  CS changes.
- Assert the CS over the entire message
- Don't restrict the direct access mode to only direct write mode
- Add check for max size before using memcpy()
- Remove spidev from DT bindings documentation
