I'd really like to see a common layer for SPI flash though, so I don't mean to criticise your effort. But it would be nice if not every new SPI client came with its own low-level SPI functions...
i know exactly where you're coming from, so dont sweat it. my purpose was to get things integrated and then take a look at the existing pieces and unify them. easier i think to have known working code to throw at a common framework than code for hypothetical uses we cant actually break our teeth on.
Ok, don't worry about it then. I just wanted to make sure you investigate the API(s) we already have before you propose something new.
So let's just make "please use the include/spi.h API for low-level SPI access" be one of the comments on your RFC :-)
do you have a git tree for this so i can pull it down and test it for Blackfin ? i can see about posting an updated implementation then ... -mike
