The following restructuring and optimisations increase the SPI read performance from 1.3MiB/s (on da850) to 2.87MiB/s (on da830):
Using this patch I get 2.21MiB/s on my L138 EVM (da850), quite an improvement! I would like to see how much my original patch can be improved using some of your changes without splitting the code to handle the three cases. I will try later this week.
Not testing the txp and rxp pointers in the loop was a significant gain for me and pipe-lining the TX and RX operations is going to be a little trickier, but give it a go by all means.
Yes, it's unlikely I will be able to get my version to work as fast as yours because of all the extra uncached memory access, which makes me wonder if we shouldn't just bite the bullet and enable dcache for da830/da850, so we can keep the code simpler.
Thanks for the review.
Thank you for the patch. -- Delio
