Could you please describe your test setup? @Martin, @Lukas Are you fine with this patch?

I'm working on a rpi cape which uses this device https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/linux/blob/master/drivers/iio/frequency/adf4371.c which is connected in 3-WIRE mode. I could confirm that spi was not working. > > __spi_validate() returns -EINVAL if 3-wire mode is used and both > buffers > are non-NULL, I guess that's the problem. In my case, __spi_validate() was ok because my device driver is passing one of rx or tx as NULL. The problem is in spi_map_msg() which allocates dummy buffers (because of the ctrl flags). As a result, in bcm2835_spi_transfer_one() we set "cs |= BCM2835_SPI_CS_REN;" when we want to do tx only.

Also, I did a quick backport of the state of your driver's (both spi-bcm2835 and bcm2835-dma) in revpi_staging and it also worked fine with my device. So, as far as I understand, the above suggestion (or my patch) is not intended to be upstreamed, right? It is just a temporary fix that I can use while your patchset gets upstream. Thanks for your help! Nuno Sá

As stated in https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/spi/README.md, one of rx or tx buffer's must be null. However, if DMA is enabled, the driver sets the SPI_CONTROLLER_MUST_RX | SPI_CONTROLLER_MUST_TX on the controller flags. Hence, the spi core will provide dummy buffers even if one of the buffers was set to null by the device driver. Thus, the communication with the 3-wire device fails. This patch uses the prepare_message callback to look for the device mode and sets/clears the SPI_CONTROLLER_MUST_RX | SPI_CONTROLLER_MUST_TX on a per spi message basis. It also assumes that DMA is not supported on half-duplex devices. Signed-off-by: Nuno Sá <nuno.sa@analog.com> --- drivers/spi/spi-bcm2835.c | 13 +++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+)
