While I am not highly familiar with SPI usage on the Omega, doing a quick search shows that there are available opkg packages. It may be worth looking at the following packages:

  • spi-tool
  • spi-tools
  • libonionspi

Additionally, for ADC, it may be worth looking at I2C based ADCs. I have successfully used the following that uses I2C connected to my Omega: https://www.adafruit.com/product/1083
Though I don't actually use it myself, there is an opkg package for this:

  • ads1x15-chip
