Hi guys,

I'm trying to control a gpio using PRU but I not understand something. 
First of all, I know that for certain pins, there is the PRU mode for 
writing and reading (mode 5 and 6) and for gpio is mode 7. My question is, 
can I control the pin in mode 7 with PRU?

I already tried to control a pin in mode 5 or 6 with PRU and everything 
seems to work. But what I don't understand from documentation is that if I 
can control it in mode 7, and I'm asking that because I saw some examples 
with pin used in mode 7 ( gpio) controlled by PRU ( output or capture).

I already have some code but it seems that it doesn't work.
