Hi Mark, i.MX LPSPI controller only works in Master mode previously. This patch series adds support slave mode to LPSPI controller, including: - Replace all related structure names and object names which is named "master" with "controller", - adds SPI slave mode support for i.MX7ulp and i.MX8qm/qxp in PIO mode, - DT binding updates for slave mode.
Currently SPI Slave mode support patch has the following limitations: 1. The stale data in RXFIFO will be dropped when the Slave does any new transfer. 2. One transfer can be finished only after all transfer->len data been transferred to master device 3. Slave device only accepts transfer->len data. Any data longer than this from master device will be dropped. Any data shorter than this from master will cause LPSPI to stuck due to mentioned limitation 2. 4. Only PIO transfer is supported in Slave Mode. Wire connection: GND, SCK, MISO(to MISO of slave), MOSI(to MOSI of slave), SCS Change log: V2: - Split last version patch into 3 patches, and add the doc update. V3: - Add more detailed description in commit message of the second patch. - Keep the description of "fsl,imx8qxp-spi" in spi-fsl-lpspi.txt in the fourth patch.
