Hello,
I will start my GSOC project with a GPIO driver for the RPi BSP, and
part of the GPIO driver code will not be specific to the RPi but to
any board with a GPIO interface. With code reuse in mind and since I
did not found any "generic" API for the GPIO interface in the RTEMS
code base, I intend to propose here an initial *rough* draft of what
this API may look like.
Do you think a gpio API has advantages over Pierre's driver/ioctl based
driver?
https://github.com/pficheux/raspberry_pi/blob/master/RTEMS/gpio_driver
Feedback from others would be welcome. Pierre offered this as a generic
GPIO driver interface for RTEMS earlier, but did not get much feedback.
To initialize the API:
rtems_gpio_initialize (struct gpio_config)
which would initialize the API with a specific GPIO peripheral
configuration: number of gpio pins, gpio register addresses, ...
To set a gpio pin as input or output (the direction would be a macro):
rtems_gpio_direction (int gpio, int direction)
Does the gpio serve as the GPIO pin number in this API?
To set a gpio pull resistor (either pull up/down or no pull resistor):
rtems_gpio_set_Pull (int gpio, int pull)
Maybe use lower case 'p' for this api to be consistent.
Some GPIO I/O:
rtems_gpio_set(int gpio)
rtems_gpio_clr (int gpio)
rtems_gpio_read_value (int gpio)
Use rtems_gpio_get instead of read_value?
And interrupt management:
rtems_int_enable (int gpio, rtems_interrupt_level int)
rtems_int_disable (int gpio)
rtems_int_clear (int gpio)
Do you mean to have rtems_gpio_int_xxx ?
Would appreciate some feedback on this.
--Andre Marques.
