I am trying to run spi on mini 6410. i have tried all the solution given for spi for mini2440 but i am not still able to create device entry in (/dev) i have gone through kernel documentation in (/documentation/spi). plz help me with this topic
What kernel do you use? Binary? Source? Do you compile your kernel by yourself? What kernel configuration do you use? What do you expect to occur in "/dev"? What SPI devices have you connected to your Mini6410 and how have you connected them (which GPIO/connector lines)?
Thanks Juergen for ur reply i am using Linux 2.6.38 Binary, and i am compiling my kernel by my own. i am configuring SPI driver from kernel to be added as modules into the kernel. I am expecting to get "spidev" listed in my device list (in /dev). so i can use this device to write a code to drive SPI based ADC that is (MCP 3208). I will be connection this ADC (MCP 3208) on CON-6 connector on spi1_clk, spi1_MISO, spi1_MOSI, SPI1_CS. Plz help me out with this problem.
I have same problem. I have try to add spi_board_info structure to mach-mini6410.c file and i add the modalias = spidev(like the documentation guided) line allso, but no effect.
Yes same here, I have also tried the same way. I found a tutorial on SPI but it is for mini 2440, i have tried to modify it for mini 6410. but nothing is happening. May be i am doing some steps wrong. So plz some one try the tutorial, here is the link http://blog.ipensive.com/2011/03/mini2440-linux-kernel-modification-to-e...
someone can help me please. same problem here.
Just a shot in the dark - have you looked at the ENC28J60 driver in the kernel? It uses the SPI interface so that could be a could start for creating a driver, but it would depend on its implementation vs. what you're trying to achieve.
The original driver in the Samsung's kernel tree is not working out of the box. Patches are needed. R.E.W. from bitwizard.nl has fixed it. If you're interested, I can provide the instructions.
Sergey, can you provide the instructions for patches to kernel?
