Hello.

I'm working with TCM-BF537 with 2009R1 kernel + toolchain... All is working fine

I configured the kernel to have a "spi-dev" device in CS-2.

I'm working with a SPI device called KX1400 that doesn't send any information by blackfin_SPI_MISO.

Though the device has a line called BUSY connected to SPI_MISO from blackfin.

In this case the SPIO_MISO is not used by SPI comunication, the KX1400 doesn't send any information by SPI bus.

I'm trying to use this line GPIO12-SPI_MISO to work with GPIO sysfs interface.

The problem is that this line is "used" by SPI driver.

Is there any way to use this line as GPIO?

Thanks

I need the driver to send the SPI comands to KX1400 device.

so dont specify P_SPI0_MISO in your board resources.  but then you wont be able to use the SPI bus with any other device.
