Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base.
It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and
the base is:
commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2

Prepare v4.1.3-rt3
Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We
should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

However, the Linux SPI bus driver assumes that +the Slave Select is always under software control and being asserted during +the entire SPI transfer. - And not just bits_per_word duration. + +In most cases you can utilize SPI MODE_3 instead of MODE_0 to work-around this +behavior. If your SPI slave device in question requires SPI MODE_0 or MODE_2 +timing, you can utilize the GPIO controlled SPI Slave Select option instead. +In this case, you should use GPIO based CS for all of your slaves and not just +the ones using mode 0 or 2 in order to guarantee correct CS toggling behavior. + +You can even use the same pin whose peripheral role is a SSEL, +but use it as a GPIO instead. |
