2 # SPI driver configuration
4 # NOTE: the reason this doesn't show SPI slave support is mostly that
5 # nobody's needed a slave side API yet. The master-role API is not
6 # fully appropriate there, so it'd need some thought to do well.
13 The "Serial Peripheral Interface" is a low level synchronous
14 protocol. Chips that support SPI can have data transfer rates
15 up to several tens of Mbit/sec. Chips are addressed with a
16 controller and a chipselect. Most SPI slaves don't support
17 dynamic device discovery; some are even write-only or read-only.
19 SPI is widely used by microcontrollers to talk with sensors,
20 eeprom and flash memory, codecs and various other controller
21 chips, analog to digital (and d-to-a) converters, and more.
22 MMC and SD cards can be accessed using SPI protocol; and for
23 DataFlash cards used in MMC sockets, SPI must always be used.
25 SPI is one of a family of similar protocols using a four wire
26 interface (select, clock, data in, data out) including Microwire
27 (half duplex), SSP, SSI, and PSP. This driver framework should
28 work with most such devices and controllers.
31 boolean "Debug support for SPI drivers"
32 depends on SPI && DEBUG_KERNEL
34 Say "yes" to enable debug messaging (like dev_dbg and pr_debug),
35 sysfs, and debugfs support in SPI controller and protocol drivers.
38 # MASTER side ... talking to discrete SPI slave chips including microcontrollers
42 # boolean "SPI Master Support"
46 If your system has an master-capable SPI controller (which
47 provides the clock and chipselect), you can enable that
48 controller and the protocol drivers for the SPI slave chips

55 tristate "Atmel SPI Controller"
56 depends on (ARCH_AT91 || AVR32) && SPI_MASTER
58 This selects a driver for the Atmel SPI Controller, present on
59 many AT32 (AVR32) and AT91 (ARM) chips.
62 tristate "Bitbanging SPI master"
63 depends on SPI_MASTER && EXPERIMENTAL
65 With a few GPIO pins, your system can bitbang the SPI protocol.
66 Select this to get SPI support through I/O pins (GPIO, parallel
67 port, etc). Or, some systems' SPI master controller drivers use
68 this code to manage the per-word or per-transfer accesses to the
69 hardware shift registers.
71 This is library code, and is automatically selected by drivers that
72 need it. You only need to select this explicitly to support driver
73 modules that aren't part of this kernel tree.
76 tristate "Parallel port adapter for AVR Butterfly (DEVELOPMENT)"
77 depends on SPI_MASTER && PARPORT && EXPERIMENTAL
80 This uses a custom parallel port cable to connect to an AVR
81 Butterfly <http://www.atmel.com/products/avr/butterfly>, an
82 inexpensive battery powered microcontroller evaluation board.
83 This same cable can be used to flash new firmware.
86 tristate "Freescale iMX SPI controller"
87 depends on SPI_MASTER && ARCH_IMX && EXPERIMENTAL
89 This enables using the Freescale iMX SPI controller in master
93 tristate "Freescale MPC83xx SPI controller"
94 depends on SPI_MASTER && PPC_83xx && EXPERIMENTAL
97 This enables using the Freescale MPC83xx SPI controller in master
100 Note, this driver uniquely supports the SPI controller on the MPC83xx
101 family of PowerPC processors. The MPC83xx uses a simple set of shift
102 registers for data (opposed to the CPM based descriptor model).
104 config SPI_OMAP_UWIRE
105 tristate "OMAP1 MicroWire"
106 depends on SPI_MASTER && ARCH_OMAP1
109 This hooks up to the MicroWire controller on OMAP1 chips.
113 tristate "PXA2xx SSP SPI master"
114 depends on SPI_MASTER && ARCH_PXA && EXPERIMENTAL
116 This enables using a PXA2xx SSP port as a SPI master controller.
117 The driver can be configured to use any SSP port and additional
118 documentation can be found a Documentation/spi/pxa2xx.
121 tristate "Samsung S3C24XX series SPI"
122 depends on SPI_MASTER && ARCH_S3C2410 && EXPERIMENTAL
124 SPI driver for Samsung S3C24XX series ARM SoCs
126 config SPI_S3C24XX_GPIO
127 tristate "Samsung S3C24XX series SPI by GPIO"
128 depends on SPI_MASTER && ARCH_S3C2410 && SPI_BITBANG && EXPERIMENTAL
130 SPI driver for Samsung S3C24XX series ARM SoCs using
131 GPIO lines to provide the SPI bus. This can be used where
132 the inbuilt hardware cannot provide the transfer mode, or
133 where the board is using non hardware connected pins.

139 # There are lots of SPI device types, with sensors and memory
140 # being probably the most widely used ones.
142 comment "SPI Protocol Masters"
143 depends on SPI_MASTER
146 tristate "SPI EEPROMs from most vendors"
147 depends on SPI_MASTER && SYSFS
149 Enable this driver to get read/write support to most SPI EEPROMs,
150 after you configure the board init code to know about each eeprom
151 on your target board.
153 This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
