Reporter on a Raspberry Pi 5 couldn't read NFC tags — gauge worked, SPI bus and wiring fine, but PN5180 transfers didn't complete. Manually commenting out `self._spi.no_cs = True` restored communication. Root cause: Pi 5's RP1 southbridge SPI driver (spi-rp1) doesn't honour the SPI_NO_CS ioctl the way the historical Broadcom driver on Pi 4 did. Safe to relax Pi-wide. SpoolBuddy's PN5180 NSS line is wired to GPIO23 (manual CS in _cs_low / _cs_high — the kernel's default auto-CS timing doesn't meet the PN5180's 5µs setup / 100µs hold spec). The hardware CE0 line (GPIO8) is not connected to the reader, so whether the kernel auto-toggles it is electrically invisible. The no_cs = True call was always cosmetic on this hardware. Wraps the assignment in try/except OSError in both the daemon and the diagnostic script; the daemon logs at debug level so future Pi-5-specific triage is greppable. README updated to drop the "spidev.no_cs = True resolves this" sentence and explain the manual GPIO23 CS scheme carries the timing on its own. |
