MPC8308RDB spi not working

[Lavoie, Bruce]

Hi All,

 

I'm working on a MPC8308RDB evaluation board using the Freescale LTIB
2.6.29 kernel that ships with the board.  The board support package as
it comes does not support the SPI interface.  I've been working with the
spi_mpc83xx.c file and I found an open firmware patch, which appears to
be working at a glance.  I'm trying to get the spidev.c user interface
working, but it's not invoking the probe function.  I'm tracing thru
with GDB and see that the spi_driver is getting initialized correctly
prior to calling driver_register, but for some reason "probe" is just
not getting invoked.

 

I'm hoping someone has run into this problem and could provide some
assistance.  I've exhausted my google searching and I'm not able to find
a solution.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks
