Problem with spi_master driver and two mixed-duplex devices

Hi,

I'm trying to get the spi_master driver to work with two devices on the same bus. My problem is that when one device is half-duplex and the other is full-duplex, it doesn't behave as expected. I'm using the following code:

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse]
  1. #include <stdio.h>
  2. #include "esp_system.h"
  3. #include "esp_event.h"
  4. #include "driver/spi_master.h"
  5.  
  6.  
  7. #define TEST_MISO_PIN 19
  8. #define TEST_MOSI_PIN 18
  9. #define TEST_SCLK_PIN 5
  10. #define TEST_CS1_PIN 27
  11. #define TEST_CS2_PIN 32

  26.             .quadwp_io_num = -1,
  27.             .quadhd_io_num = -1
  28.         };
  29.  
  30.         ESP_ERROR_CHECK(spi_bus_initialize(VSPI_HOST, &buscfg, 0));
  31.     }

For debugging purposes, I have removed both of the actual SPI slaves from the bus, so the only thing that's connected to them is the ESP32. See the attached image for what my logic analyzer shows for this code.

For the second transaction, the driver seems to drive the chip for two more 8-bit cycles than expected. It looks like it's actually operating the transaction in half-duplex mode, although the device is configured as full-duplex. This happens only when I do the first dummy transaction - if I remove the first spi_device_transmit, the other transaction behaves as expected.

The logs don't seem to show anything useful:

For reference, I'm using an Adafruit HUZZAH32 development board and ESP-IDF 4.0-beta2.

Any ideas?

I'm having the same problem, only on esp-idf 4+, works fine in 3.3.

Transactions are working fine, but as soon as I run a transaction with the half-duplex device, everything goes to hell on the other devices. See screenshots attached.

Bug fix for esp-idf 4.0, 4.1, 4.2 (code is different in 4.3):
Add line: hal->half_duplex = dev->cfg.flags & SPI_DEVICE_HALFDUPLEX ? 1 : 0;

To spi_setup_device() in components/driver/spi_master.c:

static void SPI_MASTER_ISR_ATTR spi_setup_device(spi_host_t *host, int dev_id)
{
//if the configuration is already applied, skip the following.
if (dev_id == host->prev_cs) {
return;
}

ESP_EARLY_LOGD(SPI_TAG, "SPI device changed from %d to %d", host->prev_cs, dev_id);
spi_device_t *dev = atomic_load(&host->device[dev_id]);

spi_hal_context_t *hal = &host->hal;
hal->mode = dev->cfg.mode;
hal->half_duplex = dev->cfg.flags & SPI_DEVICE_HALFDUPLEX ? 1 : 0;
hal->tx_lsbfirst = dev->cfg.flags & SPI_DEVICE_TXBIT_LSBFIRST ? 1 : 0;
hal->rx_lsbfirst = dev->cfg.flags & SPI_DEVICE_RXBIT_LSBFIRST ? 1 : 0;
hal->no_compensate = dev->cfg.flags & SPI_DEVICE_NO_DUMMY ? 1 : 0;
hal->sio = dev->cfg.flags & SPI_DEVICE_3WIRE ? 1 : 0;
hal->dummy_bits = dev->cfg.dummy_bits;
hal->cs_setup = dev->cfg.cs_ena_pretrans;
hal->cs_hold =dev->cfg.cs_ena_posttrans;
//set hold_time to 0 will not actually append delay to CS
//set it to 1 since we do need at least one clock of hold time in most cases
if (hal->cs_hold == 0) hal->cs_hold = 1;
hal->cs_pin_id = dev_id;
hal->timing_conf = &dev->timing_conf;

spi_hal_setup_device(hal);

//Record the device just configured to save time for next time
host->prev_cs = dev_id;
}

Hi!

This solution doesn't work for me.
Setup: Two SPI devices; the first one is a full-duplex device with positive CS, the second one is a half-duplex device with "normal" negative CS.

The first one alone works perfectly, the second one alone works perfectly; if both are used nothing is working at all.

Any solution for this?

Any update on this issue and get fixed on new version of idf? I'm using 4.2 and have the exactly the same issue...

I also ran into the same issue: I'm using full-duplex to talk to a SD card and half-duplex to another SPI device. The patch that is mention in this thread unfortunately does not work for me.
