Oh, this has changed recently in 8cdcd8aeee281 ("spi: imx/fsl-lpspi: Convert to GPIO descriptors"): .... - } else { - u32 num_cs; - - if (!of_property_read_u32(np, "num-cs", &num_cs)) - master->num_chipselect = num_cs; - /* If not preset, default value of 1 is used */ Initially, if num-cs was not present the default value for num_chipselect was 1. - } + /* + * Get number of chip selects from device properties. This can be + * coming from device tree or boardfiles, if it is not defined, + * a default value of 3 chip selects will be used, as all the legacy + * board files have <= 3 chip selects. + */ + if (!device_property_read_u32(&pdev->dev, "num-cs", &val)) + master->num_chipselect = val; + else + master->num_chipselect = 3; Now it became 3. I think this is a driver issue and we should fix the driver instead of requiring to pass num-cs to the device tree. num-cs is not even documented in the spi-imx binding.
