Hello,

I've just been reading about the SPI support in the 2.6.24 kernel:

http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_24

Here is some introductory background on SPI:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Peripheral_Interface_Bus



Does anyone have a testbed where the processor on their embedded board
is using the SPI port?


Has anyone use a 2.6.24 kernel to utilize the new SPI support to
communicate with any other hardware?


Any examples are appreciated.

i use the common SPI framework on the Blackfin processor all the time to talk
to a variety of devices

Do you know the url or a link for the arm kernel mailing list?
All I seem to find is the 'arm linux' lists....
