 Linux kernels that utilize the device-tree need to add a device-tree node to the SPI controller to use a kernel driver. Note that you can also access SPI from userspace using {{{spidev}}} (see [#spidev below])

 When searching for your device ID string or its controlling driver, searching via a Linux LXR site like the one at [https://lxr.missinglinkelectronics.com/linux missing link electronics] for your device name can be helpful.
