[PATCH V2 5/5] spi: bcm2835: split long transfers

kernel at martin.sperl.org kernel at martin.sperl.org
Mon Dec 7 07:21:48 PST 2015


From: Martin Sperl <kernel at martin.sperl.org>

Start to use spi_translate_message method when running in
DMA mode and (for now) split spi_transfers with len > 60kB
transparently into multiple transfers using the core method
spi_split_transfers_maxsize.

Eventually the bcm2835_translate_message may get moved into
SPI-core as shared code (when we find the common denominators
for different HW)
