SPI in the kernell configurator the kernell will build without error's Can someone help ?

[Altera_Forum]

nobody used SPI???? tell me if you are using it! and it working

[Altera_Forum]

I had the same problem and IMO the SPI component generator has a bug. IIRC I corrected it and was able to compile the kernel after that. If there is no official fix for this I can post it if you want.

[Altera_Forum]

Yes please that would be nice ! 

 Did the SPI bus work? Do you have got a any example application?  I appriciate it, if you want post it.   Tnx now can i graduate at time i hope. http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif

[Altera_Forum]

I don&#39;t remember exactly what I did. I think the include file was missing some parts and the perl generator was bugged. I don&#39;t know how to add files to a post so I will just paste the code: 

 With this I just compiled the kernel and started uclinux but I haven&#39;t used it yet. I am supposed to play with this next week. So if you manage to make it work I would be interested to know ;-)  Also if there is an official fix I&#39;m interested too.  Marc  File: altera\kits\nios2\bin\eclipse\plugins\com.microtronix.nios2linux.kernel_0.1.5\linux-2.6.x\include\asm-nios2nommu\spi.h   #ifndef _ASM_SPI_H_# define _ASM_SPI_H_ 1 /*-------------------------------------------------------------------- * * include/asm-nios2nommu/spi.h * * Derived from various works, Alpha, ix86, M68K, Sparc, ...et al * * Copyright (C) 2004   Microtronix Datacom Ltd * * This program is free software;

The kernell is build witout error&#39;s 

I will upload it tommorow to my board. And see if it working, but i have no appication to test it. I have not find any fix for it, maybe someone from Microtronix know it? Maybe 2 SPI interface will also work ?
