SPI

Post by anto » Thu Oct 23, 2014 10:38 am

Hi,
where can i find some instruction to connect a slave device to my Red Pitaya and communicate with it?

I'd be interested in this as well, seems funny that there's a SPI interface without any use. Where could start to develop a driver?

Well, the SPI bus on the extension connector E2 is connected to the ZYNQ's SPI 1 interface, which in turn is made available to the linux kernel by the following block in the devicetree:

Code: Select all

		ps7_spi_1: ps7-spi@e0007000 {
			bus-num = <2>;
			compatible = "xlnx,ps7-spi-1.00.a";
			interrupt-parent = <&ps7_scugic_0>;
			interrupts = < 0 49 4 >;
			num-chip-select = <4>;
			reg = < 0xe0007000 0x1000 >;
			speed-hz = <166666672>;
			xlnx,has-ss0 = <0x1>;
			xlnx,has-ss1 = <0x0>;
			xlnx,has-ss2 = <0x0>;
			xlnx,spi-clk-freq-hz = <0x9ef21b0>;
		} ;
So, you would probably start by writing a module that registers a new class on this spi-bus, then searches the bus for your specific device and register itself as the driver if found.

In place of making changes in fpga code can be write code in arm and run it to get data on fpga spi pins .........

Can you please let me know where this code is present in the red pitaya folder that you have mentioned.

This code was from the "devicetree.dts" file that's being generated dynamically during the Red Pitaya build process.

The relevant Makefile targets are "devicetree" from RedPitaya/FPGA/release1/fpga/Makefile:

Code: Select all

devicetree:
	make -C $(SDK_DIR)/device-tree_bsp_0/ -k all
and RedPitaya/FPGA/release1/fpga/vivado/red_pitaya.sdk/SDK/SDK_Export/device-tree_bsp_0/Makefile:

Code: Select all

# Makefile generated by Xilinx SDK.

-include libgen.options

LIBRARIES = ${PROCESSOR}/lib/libxil.a
MSS = system.mss

all: libs
	@echo 'Finished building libraries'

libs: $(LIBRARIES)

$(LIBRARIES): $(MSS)
	libgen -hw ${HWSPEC}\
	       ${REPOSITORIES}\
	       -pe ${PROCESSOR} \
	       -log libgen.log \
	       $(MSS)

clean:
	rm -rf ${PROCESSOR}
The compiled devicetree is part of the ecosystem, so if you booted your Red Pitaya with the standard ecosystem, linux already knows about the SPI bus on E2.
Loading another FPGA *.bin into /dev/xdevcfg will not change this.

Can be write data from arm processor and get the spi output on the pins....

I'm currently working on the same thing.
Is there a way to write code so that the SPI gets information as soon as the RP turns on?
I need the RP to communicate with an external device at turn on.
