Second SPI

rrossi

I'm trying to activate the second SPI on a Banana Pi.
On script.fex I activated SPI1_para and I changed the name of the pins.
[spi1_para]
spi_used = 1
spi_cs_bitmap = 1
spi_cs0 = portI16<3><default><default><default>
spi_cs1 = portI15<3><default><default><default>
spi_sclk = portI17<3><default><default><default>
spi_mosi = portI18<3><default><default><default>
spi_miso = portI19<3><default><default><default>

After changing this, the system boot, and sun7i_spi is able to identify the two devices.

[ 1548.823011] [spi-inf] Found 2 spi devices in config files
[ 1548.835507] [spi-inf] boards num modalias         max_spd_hz       bus_num  cs   mode
[ 1548.847390] [spi-inf] spi_board0 irq gpio not used

however, installing the modules, only the devices for spidev0 are created.
ll /dev/spi*
crw------- 1 root root 153, 0 Feb 18 14:15 /dev/spidev0.0
crw------- 1 root root 153, 1 Feb 18 14:15 /dev/spidev0.1

Modprobe gives a warning loading the modules:
modprobe -v spidev
modprobe: ERROR: magic check fail: 0 instead of b007f457
insmod /lib/modules/3.4.103/kernel/drivers/spi/spidev.ko

but the module is loaded anyway.

It seems that spidev_test works on both /dev/spidev0.0 and dev/spidev0.1, using the two different chip select, but I have no idea how to get /dev/spidev1

In case it could be useful to identify the problem, this is the output of udevadm monitor

any idea?

I was ready to trying the activate the second SPI on Pi this was actually the script that I got from this article. I have to know about the all parts on this that was on https://newyorkstreetfood.com/business-legal-police/how-to-start-a-food-blog-in-2019/ this was the main part of the file that was able to get the maon post on this.
