Need help adding an SPI device to RIoTBoard device tree

jomag

Hi

 

I just got a custom Linux dist built using Yocto running on the RIoTboard. Happy days!

 

Now I need to add an SPI-device to the board. I've done this successfully on Raspberry Pi and an Olinuxino (i.MX233) before by modifying the device tree, for example:

 

diff --git a/arch/arm/boot/dts/imx23-olinuxino.dts b/arch/arm/boot/dts/imx23-olinuxino.dts

index fc766ae..a574822 100644

--- a/arch/arm/boot/dts/imx23-olinuxino.dts

+++ b/arch/arm/boot/dts/imx23-olinuxino.dts

@@ -64,7 +64,16 @@

                 compatible = "fsl,imx23-spi";

                 pinctrl-names = "default";

                 pinctrl-0 = <&spi2_pins_a>;

+                clock-frequency = <1000000>;

                 status = "okay";

+

+                mrf24j40@0 {

+                    compatible = "mrf24j40";

+                    spi-max-frequency = <500000>;

+                    reg = <0>;

+                    interrupts = <31 1>;

+                                       interrupt-parent = <&gpio0>;

+                };

             };

         };

 

I'm unsure how to do the same on the RIoTboard/i.MX6 and I have failed to find good examples.

 

The device I need to add requires SPI-connectivity (MOSI, MISO, SCK, CS) and an IRQ. I may have to use a reset-pin as well.

 

Could anyone give me some help/hints? I'm using a 4.1 kernel currently.
