Yes. That's I suppose. > If that's the case, it would be a bit strange if it actually helped to > initialize all the CSRn registers, but it would also offer us a nice > workaround... I suppose the clock state of the AT91 just follows _last_ transfer. My patch (setting all CSRn.POL for next transfer) was based on that assumption. > Atsushi, do you by any chance have debugging enabled?
