I am trying to interface a GPIO Expander MCP23S18 (using SPI) with my ESP32-S2. The library used is spi_slave/sender/app_main.c and driver spi_master.h from components/drivers.
I don't understand what is going wrong and why it fails to work. My code is as below. Please help me with your inputs.

Using the ESP32's SPI API is possible under the Arduino IDE.

Thank you @Idahowalker. I have changed my configurations likewise. Which SPI host are you using?
typedef enum {
// SPI_HOST (SPI1_HOST) is not supported by the SPI Master and SPI Slave driver on ESP32-S2
SPI1_HOST=0, ///< SPI1
SPI2_HOST=1, ///< SPI2
SPI3_HOST=2, ///< SPI3
SPI_HOST_MAX=3, ///< invalid host value
} spi_host_device_t;
Thank you @Idahowalker. So now I know that the SPI I am using is right. Below is my configuration:
However when I observe my spi signals on an analyzer, the MOSI data appears to be in reversed polarity (as in the image). Could you please tell me what parameters need to included or what existing configurations are to be changed so that MOSI is synced with the clock? I already played with frequency and spi mode. Thank you
Yes it compiles and flashes without an error. It gives an error only when my command bits and address bits are set to zero and that makes sense cause I'm send 8 bit command and address.
