2007-07-31spidev supports more communications modesAnton Vorontsov
The spidev driver doesn't currently expose all SPI communications modes to userspace. This passes them all through to the driver. Two of them are potentially troublesome, in the sense that they could cause hardware conflicts on shared busses. It might be appropriate to add some privilege checks for for those modes.

2007-05-08/dev/spidevB.C interfaceAndrea Paterniani
Add a filesystem API for <linux/spi/spi.h> stack. The initial version of this interface is purely synchronous. dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net: Cleaned up, bugfixed; much simplified; added preliminary documentation. Works with mdev given CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED; and presumably udev. Updated SPI_IOC_MESSAGE ioctl to full spi_message semantics, supporting groups of one or more transfers (each of which may be full duplex if desired). This is marked as EXPERIMENTAL with an explicit disclaimer that the API (notably the ioctls) is subject to change.
