+ * @ingroup     cpu_native
+ * @brief       Implementation of SPI access from Linux User Space
+ *
+ * This module allows to connect a RIOT application that runs on a Linux host to
+ * the physical SPI bus(ses) of that host. To do so, the application has to be
+ * compiled for the native board in a Linux environment.
+ *
+ * SPI support is automatically included if either a module requiring the
+ * `PERIPH_SPI` feature is added to the application or if it is explicitly
+ * listed as `FEATURES_REQUIRED` in the application's Makefile.
+ *
+ * At runtime, the process has to be connected to a specific bus on the host
+ * machine. SPI busses are exposed as `/dev/spidevB.D` character files, where B
+ * is the Bus ID (MISO, MOSI and SCLK lines) and D denotes the connected device
+ * or hardware chip select line. Ideally, this structure should be reflected
+ * when mapping the device files to RIOT SPI busses.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ *
+ * ```
+ * $ ./riot_native_app --spi0:0:/dev/spidev0.0 --spi=0:0:/dev/spidev0.1
+ * ```
+ *
+ * This will add `/dev/spidev0.0` and `/dev/spidev0.1` as SPI_DEV(0) in RIOT.
+ * The first device can be used with SPI_HWCS(0) as CS parameter, the second one
+ * with SPI_HWCS(1) as CS parameter.
+ *
+ * Multiple SPI busses can be added by increasing NUM_SPI in the Makefile:
+ * ```
+ * CFLAGS += -DNUM_SPI=n
+ * ```
+ *
+ * The sames goes for the SPI_MAXCS parameter that defines the maximum number of
+ * SPI_HWCS values per bus.
+ *
+ * Busses that aren't assigned during startup will return either SPI_NODEV or
+ * SPI_NOCS when accessed.
+ *
+ * If the SPI API is called with SPI_CS_UNDEF as CS parameter, the driver will
+ * select the file descriptor with the lowest HWCS id for that bus, but the
+ * actual CS line will not be pulled low (if the hardware supports this). This
+ * would (in principle) allow to control CS manually.
