Linux下SPI总线驱动有通用接口，一般的SPI设备驱动使用这个驱动接口实现设备驱动。分析驱动最好是先了解核心代码，然后从具体设备分析入手，然后从下至上，了解整个框架，再从上到下分析，理解透彻。
以下分析内核根目录均以"src"代替。内核代码http://lxr.linux.no/，版本2.6.37.2。
SPI的核心代码即
"src/drivers/spi/spi.c"——SPI 初始化和核心代码
"src/drivers/spi/spi_gpio.c"——IO模拟SPI接口代码
头文件：
"src/include/linux/spi/spi.h"
"src/include/linux/spi/spi_gpio.h"
"src/include/linux/spi/spi_bitbang.h"
首先，先看核心代码。
一步步来，先分析代码，然后看了具体驱动再回过头来看这个核心代码。
