[ Upstream commit 3a6f994f848a69deb2bf3cd9d130dd0c09730e55 ] The addition of 3WIRE support would affect MOSI direction even when still in standard (4 wire) mode. This can lead to MOSI being at an invalid logic level when a device driver sets an SPI message with a NULL tx_buf. spi.h states that if tx_buf is NULL then "zeros will be shifted out ... " If MOSI is tristated then the data shifted out is subject to pull resistors, keepers, or in the absence of those, noise. This issue came to light when using spi-gpio connected to an ADS7843 touchscreen controller. MOSI pulled high when clocking MISO data in caused the SPI device to interpret this as a command which would put the device in an unexpected and non-functional state.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
