A sample buffer to send via SPI.

static uint8_t buffer[BUF_LENGTH] = {
        0x00, 0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0x08, 0x09,
        0x0A, 0x0B, 0x0C, 0x0D, 0x0E, 0x0F, 0x10, 0x11, 0x12, 0x13
};

Number of entries in the sample buffer.

#define BUF_LENGTH 20

GPIO pin to use as Slave Select.

#define SLAVE_SELECT_PIN EXT1_PIN_SPI_SS_0

A globally available software device instance struct to store the SPI driver state while it is in use.

struct spi_module spi_master_instance;

A globally available peripheral slave software device instance struct.

struct spi_slave_inst slave;

A function for configuring the SPI.

void configure_spi_master(void)
{
    struct spi_config config_spi_master;
    struct spi_slave_inst_config slave_dev_config;
    /* Configure and initialize software device instance of peripheral slave */
