Nano jetson SPI enable issue

HI Team,

I have install image in jetson nano board. And i am not getting spi port.
So please let me know?

thanks,
Babbelal

Hi,
This looks like a Jetson issue. Please refer to the below samlples in case useful.

For any further assistance, we recommend you to raise it to the respective platform from the below link

Thanks!

Hi Team,

1. I am using jetson nano b01 device.
cimcon@cimcon:/lib/modules/4.9.140-tegra/kernel/drivers/spi$ dmesg |grep dts
[ 0.211728] DTS File Name: /dvs/git/dirty/git-master_linux/kernel/kernel-4.9/arch/arm64/boot/dts/…/…/…/…/…/…/hardware/nvidia/platform/t210/porg/kernel-dts/tegra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00.dts

2----I have Add spi-dev in tegra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00.dts
spi@7000d400 {
spi@0 {
compatible = “spidev”;
reg = <0x0>;
spi-max-frequency = <0x1f78a40>;
nvidia,enable-hw-based-cs;
nvidia,rx-clk-tap-delay = <0x7>;
};
spi@1 {
compatible = “spidev”;
reg = <0x1>;
spi-max-frequency = <0x1f78a40>;
nvidia,enable-hw-based-cs;
nvidia,rx-clk-tap-delay = <0x7>;
};
};

3. After that build the kernel and load egra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00.dts in my target device and load spi driver
cimcon@cimcon:/lib/modules/4.9.140-tegra/kernel/drivers/spi$ ls
spi-cadence.ko spidev.ko spi-pxa2xx-pci.ko spi-pxa2xx-platform.ko spi-sc18is602.ko spi-tle62x0.ko spi-xcomm.ko spi-zynqmp-gqspi.ko
cimcon@cimcon:/lib/modules/4.9.140-tegra/kernel/drivers/spi$ sudo insmod spidev.ko
cimcon@cimcon:/lib/modules/4.9.140-tegra/kernel/drivers/spi$

4 - After that i am not getting spi interface in /dev directory.

Please let me know if I have not change valid dts file and data.

Please update me. How can enable SPI port in /dev ?

Have try below command.

sudo modprobe spidev

My Issue was resolved after add only tegra210-p3448-0002-p3449-0000-b00.dtb file.

Thanks

Hi Team,

I have enable spi in our board after that i have test spi0. I am getting Null data.
cimcon@cimcon:~/spidev-test-master$
sudo ./spi_test -D /dev/spidev0.0 -v -p “1234abcd”
spi mode: 0x0

RX | 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ | …

Please help me. Why i am getting RX null data ?

My SPI enable steps:

  1. dmesg |grep dts
    [ 0.212071] DTS File Name: …/arch/arm64/boot/dts/…/…/…/…/…/…/hardware/nvidia/platform/t210/porg/kernel-dts/tegra210-p3448-0000-p3449-0000-b00.dts

2)build dts.
make -C . ARCH=arm64 O=$TEGRA_KERNEL_OUT LOCALVERSION=-tegra CROSS_COMPILE=${TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX} -j8 --output-sync=target dtbs

tegra210-p3448-0000-p3449-0000-b00.dts (3.4 KB)

  1. move dtb on jetson board.

  2. Add dtb in /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf file.

When testing a custom kernel, it is recommended that you create a backup of

the original kernel and add a new entry to this file so that the device can

fallback to the original kernel. To do this:

1, Make a backup of the original kernel

sudo cp /boot/Image /boot/Image.backup

2, Copy your custom kernel into /boot/Image

3, Uncomment below menu setting lines for the original kernel

4, Reboot

LABEL backup

MENU LABEL backup kernel

LINUX /boot/Image.backup

INITRD /boot/initrd

APPEND ${cbootargs}

Didn’t you short the pin19/21 for loopback test?

I have not short above pins. Can you tell me name of this pins?

Have you check my dts file. Please update me if any other update in dts file related SPI?

Check below pin map. You are using spi0 aks SPI_1_* and need connect SPI_1_MOSI/SPI_1_MISO for loopback test.

I have connect SPIO MISO and MOSI and test again.

I am not getting data.

I have connect SPI0 MOSI/MISO line with scope analyzer and I am not getting any data on TX and RX.

In application show.

Please check my dts file. I think something will be missing. Please let me know.

Could you have jetson-io to configure the SPI to verify it.

Thanks

I am unable to run jetson-io commands.

sudo /opt/nvidia/jetson-io/jetson-io.py

Can you check the pin state from below command.

sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/tegra_gpio

Looks like the GPIO state is incorrect.
Apply below patch to confirm it.

Hi,

I have follow lot of forums and google link but my SPI bus ISSUE is not resolved through dts file.
Can you share some documents for enable SPI in kernel 4.9 ?

Regards,
Babbelal

Hi,

Can I get any commercial support services in India ? If you, Please provide contact details.

Thanks,
Babbelal patel

You should confirm that the pinmux configuration of spi-pins is correct.
the file is tegra210-porg-pimux-p3448-0000-b00.dtsi.

  1. I think you can update to J4.6(r32.6.1) to run the jetson-io I have confirm this version able to run jetson-io
  2. You can check which dtb by dmesg | grep kernel
  3. Sorry, We don’t have support team in India
