Setting Number of Bits about py-spidev

[doceme]

You can set the bits_per_word property on the spidev object to change the number of bits to use per transaction. This will only work if the SPI controller for the chip you are using implements support for it.

Thanks, but if I set the bits_per_word to anything other than 8, I get a
kernel panic:

"Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
00000000"

What CPU and kernel are you using?
