Hi William, thanks for the support, some input got me further at least.
This is how far I got today: I now have the uio driver more or less enabled
on 4.1.5-ti-rt-r10 via my DTS file:
/dts-v1/;
/plugin/;
/ { compatible = "ti,beaglebone", "ti,beaglebone-black";
part-number = "OMNI-ROBOT";
version = "00A0";
fragment@0 {
target = <&am33xx_pinmux>;
__overlay__ {
pinctrl_generated: RNS_Generated_Pins {
pinctrl-single,pins = <
0x078 0x07 /* P9_12 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x048 0x07 /* P9_14 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x04c 0x07 /* P9_16 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x084 0x07 /* P8_20 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x014 0x07 /* P8_22 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x004 0x07 /* P8_24 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x07c 0x07 /* P8_26 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x018 0x37 /* P8_3 INPUT | MODE7 */
0x01c 0x37 /* P8_4 INPUT | MODE7 */
0x008 0x37 /* P8_5 INPUT | MODE7 */
0x00c 0x37 /* P8_6 INPUT | MODE7 */
0x034 0x37 /* P8_11 INPUT | MODE7 */
0x030 0x37 /* P8_12 INPUT | MODE7 */
0x1ac 0x07 /* P9_25 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x1a4 0x07 /* P9_27 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x19c 0x07 /* P9_28 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x194 0x07 /* P9_29 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x198 0x07 /* P9_30 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
0x190 0x07 /* P9_31 OUTPUT | MODE7 */
>;
};
pru_pru_pins: pinmux_pru_pru_pins {
pinctrl-single,pins = <
0x0a4 0x25 /* P8_46 OUTPUT | MODE 5 */
>;
};
};
};
fragment@1 {
target = <&ocp>;
__overlay__ {
pinctrl_generated_pinmux {
compatible = "bone-pinmux-helper";
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_generated>;
status = "okay";
};
};
};
fragment@2 {
target = <&pruss>;
__overlay__ {
status = "okay";
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pru_pru_pins>;
};
};
};
I've some issue now do correct pinmuxing AND have my loader program not
fail which it currently here:
prussdrv_init();
if (prussdrv_open(PRU_EVTOUT_0) == -1) {
printf("prussdrv_open() failed\n");
return 1;
}
With this example dts above I'm setting p8_46 to mode 0x25 successfully,
but I find this in my dmesg now (and guess it's not good):
pruss_uio 4a300000.pruss: No children
Which still needs some work to figure out. Might give one of the later
kernels a try, or something else. I think I'm nearly there though.
Thanks - Joseph.
