I am trying to interface 6 mcp4921 devices via SPI1. Beaglebone's SPI1 interface has 2 native CS. I want to add 4 more GPIO CS to SPI1. Total 6 CS.
I added all 6 CS entries to the device tree's cs-gpios as shown below. 2 native CS + 4 GPIO CS.
cs-gpios = <0>,While testing I observed that only devices connected to the first 4 CS works well. The transaction with the last 2 devices throws a timeout error (timeout error verified from dmesg).
After looking at am33xx.dtsi and spi-omap2-mcspi.c driver file, it seems like the SPI driver support only 4 CS.
How do I extend the SPI driver to support 6 CS?
