Please have a look at arch/arm/mach-lpc32xx/phy3250.c :
static struct pl022_config_chip spi0_chip_info = {
.com_mode = INTERRUPT_TRANSFER,
.iface = SSP_INTERFACE_MOTOROLA_SPI,
.hierarchy = SSP_MASTER,
.slave_tx_disable = 0,
.rx_lev_trig = SSP_RX_4_OR_MORE_ELEM,
.tx_lev_trig = SSP_TX_4_OR_MORE_EMPTY_LOC,
.ctrl_len = SSP_BITS_8,
.wait_state = SSP_MWIRE_WAIT_ZERO,
.duplex = SSP_MICROWIRE_CHANNEL_FULL_DUPLEX,
.cs_control = phy3250_spi_cs_set,
};
...
static struct spi_eeprom eeprom = {
.name = "at25256a",
.byte_len = 0x8000,
.page_size = 64,
.flags = EE_ADDR2,
};
static struct spi_board_info info[] = {
{
.modalias = "at25",
.max_speed_hz = 5000000,
.bus_num = 0,
.chip_select = 0,
.mode = SPI_MODE_0,
.platform_data = &eeprom,
.controller_data = &spi0_chip_info,
},
};
spi_register_board_info(info, ARRAY_SIZE(info));
Trying to replace .controller_data at this point with device tree
settings passing, I struggled with missing resp. node properties.
Any hint how this can be done?
Thanks in advance,
Roland
