Hi,

I know this has been reviewed multiples time, but I have few questions on it.

I think this preamble is one of spi mode characteristic, if so does it
specific to a hw?

So for each cs active, we can assign the state of prempble to
skip_preamble and then
we check if the preamble is there on below logic
+                       if (spi_slave->skip_preamble) {
+                               if (temp == SPI_PREAMBLE_END_BYTE) {
+                                       spi_slave->skip_preamble = 0;
+                                       stopping = 0;
+                               }

If the preamble is there, read the rx_data for preamble data.
If ie the preamble data then add the skip to 0. and continue to read
the next data as read rxed data by
skipping preamble with toread--.

Was my understanding is correct, please correct me if am wrong.
