Lukas, this a bit beyond my skill level at the moment. I'd like to
start with something with a bit easier, and then work my way up.

Here's how I gather things are supposed to work.

The references inside the _DSM method for SPIT device: {spiSclkPeriod,
spiWordSize, spiCSDelay....etc} are meant to be parsed out and used as
parameters to configure the SPI controller/protocol driver (or not
used at all).

**that's exactly what i2c-designware-platdrv.c does in configuring the
ss_hcnt, ssh_lcnt...etc parameters


SPI controllers are relatively simple devices and I'm just going to
assume that the default parameters used in spi-pxa2xx are sufficient
for now. **I can always manually adjust them later

My goal at the moment is just to be able to perform basic connectivity
testing with the slave device.
The first issue I ran into was that the IRQ assigned to the DMA
controller (dw_dmac) was wrong.

/proc/interrupts
20:    dw_dmac                            --by default, it's set to 20
21:     pxa2xx-spi.0

/proc/interrupts
21:     dw_dmac, pxa2xx-spi.0    --should be set to 21 and share IRQ
with spi controller


IRQ 21 is what is shown in the DSDT table for both the DMA and SPI
devices. I think because the DMA controller is called by its PCI ID
(dma/dw/pci.c)that's it's not checking ACPI for the IRQ value.


modprobe spi_pxa2xx_pci     --everything seems to come up fine

....
xxx pxa2xx.c setup() tx_thres: 160 tx_hi_thres: 224 rx_thres: 64

pxa2xx-spi pxa2xx-spi.0: registered child spi-APP000D:00
....


I've modified spidev.c to bind to the APP000D slave device. However,
when I run spidev_test nothing gets received.

./spidev_test -D /dev/spidev0.0

spi mode: 0x0
bits per word: 8
max speed: 500000 Hz (500 KHz)
RX | 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00.......

**dmesg (prink statements) shows it running through the whole dma
transfer transfer process


I'm wondering what functions SIEN, SIST, and ISOL methods are meant to
perform on the SPIT device (in the DSDT table) --and how to use them.


Here's what I got so far:

.....................................................
static int spi_hid_probe(struct spi_device *spi)
{
        struct acpi_object_list input;
        union acpi_object param[1];
        acpi_status status;
        param[0].type = ACPI_TYPE_INTEGER;
        param[0].integer.value = 0x01;
        input.count = 1;
        input.pointer = param;

        status = acpi_evaluate_object(ACPI_HANDLE(&spi->dev), "SIEN",
&input, NULL);
        if (ACPI_FAILURE(status))
                printk("xxx mb81_spi_probe --ACPI_FAILURE\n");

        return 0;
}


static const struct acpi_device_id spi_hid_acpi_match[] = {
        { "APP000D", 0 },
        { },
};
...
...................................................

If I load & unload this test module --and then run spidev

./spidev_test -D /dev/spidev0.0  -v
spi mode: 0x0
bits per word: 8
max speed: 500000 Hz (500 KHz)
TX | FF FF FF FF FF FF 40 00 00 00 00 95 FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF
FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF F0 0D  | ......@....�..................�.
RX | 20 D0 00 00 00 00 04 00 A0 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  | .�......��....................

It changed something....
It looks like SIEN is modifying the GPIO registers, but its function
isn't exactly clear.


Lukas, can you help me sort out what the purpose of these methods are
and how to use them?
