The commonly used mechanism of specifying the hardware or native chip-select on an SPI device in devicetree (that is "cs-gpios = <0>") does not result in the native chip-select being configured for use. So external SPI devices that require use of the native chip-select will not work. You can successfully specify native chip-selects if using a platform setup by specifying the cs-gpio as negative offset by 32. And that works correctly. You cannot use the same method in devicetree. The logic in the spi-imx.c driver during probe uses core spi function of_spi_register_master() in spi.c to parse the "cs-gpios" devicetree tag. For valid GPIO values that will be recorded for use, all other entries in the cs_gpios list will be set to -ENOENT. So entries like "<0>" will be set to -ENOENT in the cs_gpios list. When the SPI device registers are setup the code will use the GPIO listed in the cs_gpios list for the desired chip-select. If the cs_gpio is less then 0 then it is intended to be for a native chip-select, and its cs_gpio value is added to 32 to get the chipselect number to use. Problem is that with devicetree this can only ever be -ENOENT (which is -2), and that alone results in an invalid chip-select number. But also doesn't allow selection of the native chip-select at all. To fix, if the cs_gpio specified for this spi device is not a valid GPIO then use the "chip_select" (that is the native chip-select number) for hardware setup.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
