SPI trouble on Colibri 270 (PXA)...

[jakob@viketoft.se (Jakob Viketoft)]

Hello!

I've come to a dead end in finding out what's wrong with my SPI setup so 
I was hoping that someone here has some pointers to help me along. I'm 
trying to use an m25p80 SPI flash through the pxa2xx SPI controller 
(through SSP1), but read accesses go wrong (I haven't even tried writing 
yet). What happens is that after the pxa2xx writes the read command on 
the SPI bus, the chip is deselected - effectively terminating the read 
operation. Some 100 us afterwards the cs go low again and it seems as 
the read operation is continued (clock runs, no output data), but by 
then the chip has already terminated. Forcing the cs_change bit on each 
transfer doesn't seem to do any difference, there is still a pause 
between two transfers in the same message.

I haven't seen any other board using the same combination (the m25p80 
and the pxa2xx), but I'm still opting for an error on my part somewhere. 
I've attached my SPI configuration (board setup) in the end of the mail.

I'm ready for any suggestions at this point. Please CC me as I'm not on 
the list.

Regards,

	/Jakob
