These make a small bus, sharing MOSI, MISO and SCK signals but not chip select signals. Each device may be configured to use a different clock rate, since those shared signals are ignored unless the chip is selected. </p><p> The driver for an SPI controller manages access to those devices through a queue of spi_message transactions, copying data between CPU memory and an SPI slave device. For each such message it queues, it calls the message's completion function when the transaction completes. </p></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr /><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="API-module-spi-driver.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="spi.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="API-struct-spi-transfer.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top"><span class="phrase">module_spi_driver</span> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> <span class="phrase">struct spi_transfer</span></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
