Subject: [PATCH 6/8] spi: atcspi200: Add data merge mode support
Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2026 10:40:32 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260417024034.4046667-2-ycliang@andestech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260417024034.4046667-1-ycliang@andestech.com>
Add CONFIG_ATCSPI200_SPI_DATA_MERGE option to enable 4-byte data
merge mode for the ATCSPI200 SPI controller. When enabled, each
write to the data register transmits four bytes, and each read
retrieves four bytes as a single word, improving throughput for
aligned transfers.
- Add DATA_MERGE bit (bit 7) in format register
- Add data_merge field to private data structure
- Update TX/RX helpers to handle u32 access when data_merge is active
- Dynamically enable/disable data merge based on transfer alignment
(nbytes % 4 == 0) in both spi-mem exec_op and legacy xfer paths
- Use IS_ENABLED() consistently for the Kconfig check
- Add Kconfig entry with proper depends on ATCSPI200_SPI
