Hello all, I'm trying to get owfs running with gumstix. The beagleboard uses a similar TI OMAP processor so any information regarding that is also quite helpful.
I think I'm missing a 'big picture' so I wanted to review what I'm doing. The owfs communicates with 1-wire devices in a variety of ways. The OMAP processor implements a hardware 1-wire master, and I'd like to use that instead of serial (all the serial ports are in use) or USB (more cables and electronics than needed). From what I can understand, in the linux kernel there is now a "wire1" module that can/should wrap any 1-wire hardware. There is the HDQ_MASTER_OMAP kernel config driver. Is this how "wire1" would talk to the OMAP 1-wire hardware? So owfs would talk to wire1 which would use HDQ_MASTER_OMAP kernel driver to talk to the OMAP's hardware. However, this: <http://owfs.org/index.php?page=omap> makes me think this route isn't going to work. I have yet to find an example of 1-wire working in linux in any manner with the built-in OMAP 1-wire hardware. Surely it must work somehow. I have not very much linux experience, but I know C quite well and have a lot of hardware design experience. Any advice and clarifications most welcome.
