Hello,
Thanks for replying firstly.
Actully, i am using beaglebone black with debian to developpe a system,
which needs at least 72 I/Os (36 outputs, and 36 inputs for interruptions).
So i use SPI and I/O expanders to controls the 36 outputs so that i have
enough GPIOs for Inputs. I am writing an kernel module for the 36 interrupt
inputs.
Now, my SPI is working in User-Space by using /dev/spidev1.0, but i want to
integrate the SPI inside my kernel module as well. I wonder if it is
possible?
Because i want to measure the time between output and input (input signal
is from a sensor). Since SPI is in user-space, so the output is not always
sent in time, sometimes it has 4 or 5 ms delay, which it's a big deal to
me.

Thanks,

Regards,
Cheng
