I have used spi bus with Ubuntu 3.4 on nanopi neo air . I loaded Ubuntu 4.11 recently on my evaluation board, and noticed that the spi driver is missing in the kernel. In other words, there is no /dev/spidev0.0. Please help. I do appreciate some responses from the friendlyArm. We plan to purchase more nanopi boards if our application can work with the spi bus. Thanks.

SPI is fully supported within Armbian. Documentation: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Allwinner_overlays/

Thanks, will try it. By the way, does Armenian support gpio interrupt handling?
