Hi Mark,

CS can also be controlled automatically by setting AUTO_N_MANUAL to 1 in CS_CFG. When it is auto CS automatically toggles between packet to packet. NCS_TIME_COUNT in CS_CFG controls the inactive period. The driver by default uses manual mode. But on exynos7 the manual mode is removed.OK, but what's a packet here?Packet is either 1 byte or 4 bytes size depends on width of the SPI channel.quoted

I tested the driver with wm5110 codec.Did you try firmware downloads or something else that generates multiple transfers in a message? Normal register writes will use a single transfer so I'd expect them to just work.OK. I don't have provision to test on this board. I will try to test on older boards by disabling manual mode.I tested on exynos5420 peach-pit by enabling auto mode. I used dd command to read 1MB data from spi flash and I compared the result with manual mode. Both are same.
I also tested this patch with Javier Martinez Canillas patches for enabling spidev nodes from http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-samsung-soc/msg39057.html. I read 4MB flashdata from spi by enabling auto mode and compared the result. They look same.
