VAR-SOM-MX6 SPI
From Variscite Wiki
VAR-SOM-MX6 - SPI
Testing SPI from user space require some changes.
- Configure your kernel and add spidev driver. Device Drivers -> SPI support -> <*> User mode SPI device driver support
- Add spidev and pinctrl to your device tree
For VAR-SOM-MX6, edit arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6qdl-var-som.dtsi
For DART-MX6, edit arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6qdl-var-dart.dtsi

Pick and choose the right chip select and you can also have multiple chip selects.
- Compile the Linux kernel and device tree.
- For testing use the application:
