4CAIF SPI porting

7CAIF SPI basics
8===============
9
10Running CAIF over SPI needs some extra setup, owing to the nature of SPI.
11Two extra GPIOs have been added in order to negotiate the transfers
12between the master and the slave. The minimum requirement for running
13CAIF over SPI is a SPI slave chip and two GPIOs (more details below).
14Please note that running as a slave implies that you need to keep up
15with the master clock. An overrun or underrun event is fatal.
16
17CAIF SPI framework
18==================
19
20To make porting as easy as possible, the CAIF SPI has been divided in
21two parts. The first part (called the interface part) deals with all
22generic functionality such as length framing, SPI frame negotiation
23and SPI frame delivery and transmission. The other part is the CAIF
24SPI slave device part, which is the module that you have to write if
25you want to run SPI CAIF on a new hardware. This part takes care of
26the physical hardware, both with regard to SPI and to GPIOs.
27
28- Implementing a CAIF SPI device:
29
30 - Functionality provided by the CAIF SPI slave device:
31
32 In order to implement a SPI device you will, as a minimum,
33 need to implement the following
34 functions:
35
36 ::
37
38 int (*init_xfer) (struct cfspi_xfer * xfer, struct cfspi_dev *dev):
39
40 This function is called by the CAIF SPI interface to give
41 you a chance to set up your hardware to be ready to receive
42 a stream of data from the master. The xfer structure contains
43 both physical and logical addresses, as well as the total length
44 of the transfer in both directions.The dev parameter can be used
45 to map to different CAIF SPI slave devices.
46
47 ::
48
49 void (*sig_xfer) (bool xfer, struct cfspi_dev *dev):
50
51 This function is called by the CAIF SPI interface when the output
52 (SPI_INT) GPIO needs to change state. The boolean value of the xfer
53 variable indicates whether the GPIO should be asserted (HIGH) or
54 deasserted (LOW). The dev parameter can be used to map to different CAIF
55 SPI slave devices.
56
57 - Functionality provided by the CAIF SPI interface:
58
59 ::
60
61 void (*ss_cb) (bool assert, struct cfspi_ifc *ifc);
62
63 This function is called by the CAIF SPI slave device in order to
64 signal a change of state of the input GPIO (SS) to the interface.
65 Only active edges are mandatory to be reported.
66 This function can be called from IRQ context (recommended in order
67 not to introduce latency). The ifc parameter should be the pointer
68 returned from the platform probe function in the SPI device structure.
69
70 ::
71
72 void (*xfer_done_cb) (struct cfspi_ifc *ifc);
73
74 This function is called by the CAIF SPI slave device in order to
75 report that a transfer is completed. This function should only be
76 called once both the transmission and the reception are completed.
77 This function can be called from IRQ context (recommended in order
78 not to introduce latency). The ifc parameter should be the pointer
79 returned from the platform probe function in the SPI device structure.
80
81 - Connecting the bits and pieces:
82
83 - Filling in the SPI slave device structure:
84
85 Connect the necessary callback functions.
86
87 Indicate clock speed (used to calculate toggle delays).
88
89 Chose a suitable name (helps debugging if you use several CAIF
90 SPI slave devices).
91
92 Assign your private data (can be used to map to your
93 structure).
94
95 - Filling in the SPI slave platform device structure:
96
97 Add name of driver to connect to ("cfspi_sspi").
98
99 Assign the SPI slave device structure as platform data.
100
101Padding
102=======
103
104In order to optimize throughput, a number of SPI padding options are provided.
105Padding can be enabled independently for uplink and downlink transfers.
106Padding can be enabled for the head, the tail and for the total frame size.
107The padding needs to be correctly configured on both sides of the link.
108The padding can be changed via module parameters in cfspi_sspi.c or via
109the sysfs directory of the cfspi_sspi driver (before device registration).
