hi all,
    THE file place is in drivers/video/omap/lcd_osk.c.
    In the omap5912 board---osk,there is not LCD,so  I want to know
the LCD driver in the 2.6.14-omap is for which LCD.
    Thanks!

Using SPI

[Arnold]

Hi Guys,

I've been exploring SPI on the kernel. I've started
reading on how SPI works. I've learned that all SPI
drivers are currently kernel drivers. I would to know
if anybody have tried to do a userspace driver API? Or
anybody knows of an opensource userspace driver that
offers low-level access?

Thanks,
OJ

omap5912 audio driver

[zil iram]

Hi,

       I have been trying out the audio driver for the OSK and I followed 
the procedures in http://oskfordummies.hp.infoseek.co.jp/howto/audio.html. 
When I compiled the kernel (version 2.6.16) with the audio drivers enabled, 
an error occured with this message :
                sound/oss/omap-audio-aic23.c:246: error: unknown field `sem' 
specified in initializer
To move on with my work, I just commented out the line
                .sem        = __SEMAPHORE_INIT(aic23_state.sem, 1)
inside the structure static audio_state_t aic23_state of the file specified 
in the error message.  So the kernel compiled. Do you know what is wrong?
     With what I've done above, I was able to record and playback the sound 
file that I recorded perfectly. However, when I play a different file,  a 
.au Sun/NeXT audio data: 16-bit linear PCM, stereo, 8000 Hz file, the file 
tends to be played really fast even if I have already set the configurations 
through the file audioconf.c given in the link above. When I converted this 
audio file to have a sampling rate of 22050, the playback was almost perfect 
even if the setting was still set to 8khz. I am thinking that the sampling 
rate cannot be set through the audioconf app and that the audio driver is 
using the same constant value.
    Also, when I play mono 16bit .wav files, with sampling rate of 44000 and 
above, all the files are played well even if I am using the same 24000hz as 
sampling rate.
Does anybody know what the problem here is?

Thank you very much,
Zil

Can you try and check the same with recent kernel from git?

Hi Dirk,
          Thanks, I tried using kernel 2.6.17 and the audio driver is now 
compiling and working.
           Thank you very much!

That's normal for drivers that may use IRQs and/or DMA.

A patch was recently posted on the SPI developers' list
providing a userspace/filesystem API ... I've not had
time to look at this incarnation of the patch.
