spi more than 4 chipselects on imx6

I have an imx6q based board, which was designed with 6 devices connected to ecspi4.

conencting these to a different spi bus would be problematic for various reasons, and since we are using gpio chipselects, it seems like more than 4 spi devices ought to be supportable.

I have made an attempt that mostly works. I let cs0, cs1, and cs2 work the same as they always have, and reuse cs3 for cs3, cs4 and cs5:

The only problem is this shared cs3 arrangement make the spi master unreliable. calls to write to spi sometimes work and sometimes don't.

I am also observing that the CLK line for the spi seems to be active when it should not be, (possibly the source of instability). One of the devices sharing cs3 is a cs-active-high device, so this might contribute to the problem if there is some internal hardware state that think the same device is being accessed when it is not.

I also (less successfully) tried to reset the spi control register at the beginning of mx51_ecspi_config

Here is my patch:

If one of the chip selects needs to be active high you need to pass "spi-cs-high" property.

Take a look at: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/spi-bus.txt and also at arch/arm/boot/dts/imx51-babbage.dts for an example.

I have set the chipselect appropriately for that device ( the nxp rtc-pcf2123)

In fact I know the the spi configurations for each device are correct individually, because if I take out any two, the remaining 4 devices function as expected.

With an unmodified spi-imx.c, accessing the 5th or 6th device results in an unkillable spidev_test process, and permantly locking up the spi master (until reboot).

Noting that the spi-imx.c driver bitshifts config options by the chipselect id, it cannot possibly work with more than 4 chipselects.

for reference, my spi dts section:

Just a comment about your dts: the @x number must match the reg = <x> field. It seems you swapped @2 and @3 nodes.

hello,i have three chip (ad7799),i have ad7799.ko ,when i ask first chip ,i write ./spi_test /dev/ad7799,but i ask second chip,how i write?

Thanks, Fabio.

I'm sure that the wrong addresses are the result of all the experimentation I was doing.

I fixed them and didn't see a change (though I didn't expect one).
