IMX8QXP,How to set gpio by register

shalanyang — Tue, 08 May 2018 01:45:44 GMT

HI ALL,

IMX8QXP, How to set by register,for example GPIO1_20.

by datasheet:

7.2.2.3.2 GPIO Write Mode
The programming sequence for driving output signals should be as follows:
1. Configure IOMUX to select GPIO mode (Via IOMUXC), also enable SION if need
to read loopback pad value through PSR
2. Configure GPIO direction register to output (GPIO_GDIR[GDIR] set to 1b).
3. Write value to data register (GPIO_DR).
A pseudocode description to drive 4'b0101 on [output3:output0] is as follows:
// SET PADS TO GPIO MODE VIA IOMUX.
i.MX 8DualXPlus/8QuadXPlus Applications Processor Reference Manual, Rev. A, 6/2017

write sw_mux_ctl_pad_<output[0-3]>.mux_mode, <GPIO_MUX_MODE>
// Enable loopback so we can capture pad value into PSR in output mode
write sw_mux_ctl_pad_<output[0-3]>.sion, 1
// SET GDIR=1 TO OUTPUT BITS.
write GDIR[31:4,output3_bit,output2_bit, output1_bit, output0_bit,] 32'hxxxxxxxF
// WRITE OUTPUT VALUE=4’b0101 TO DR.
write DR, 32'hxxxxxxx5
// READ OUTPUT VALUE FROM PSR ONLY.
read_cmp PSR, 32'hxxxxxxx5
General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO)

I want to configure SC_P_FLEXCAN2_TX to GPIO, now ,I found how to config GPIO_DR GPIO_GDIR GPIO_PSR,

as follow code:

base: 0x5D09_0000

GPIO_DR addr:0x5D090000 value:0x5C16600D

GPIO_GDIR addr:0x5D090004 value:0x1C156000

GPIO_PSR addr:0x5D090008 value:0x5C16600D

but I can not find the IOMUXC control register address? could you help me ?

by the IMX8DQXPRM_Rev_A.pdf datasheet ,I try to access the iomux base , but have these error

135|@nutshell:/ # ./var/memtool -r 0x33F80000 0x0
[ 2384.218394] Unhandled fault: synchronous external abort (0x92000210) at 0x0000ffff9e21c000
Bus error

why? who can tell me ? (my BSP version:L4.9.51_8qm-beta2/8qxp-beta)

Hi shalan

as MX8QXP is not publicly released yet, there is no regular support for its software and

on below link memtool has not MX8 files:

memtool\test - imx-test - i.MX Driver Test Application Software

General way to set gpio - is to use api, please check sources on

pad\svc\sc\imx\soc\drivers - linux-imx - i.MX Linux kernel

use function sc_pad_set_mux(), config as SC_PAD_CONFIG_NORMAL

api.h\pad\svc\sc\imx8\soc\include - linux-imx - i.MX Linux kernel

Best regards
igor

Hi ，igorpadykov,

first， thanks for you answer, we have a program with imx8qxp for meter, Iwe hope uboot startup very fast an fast,

but when power on before the console show logo, it is spend about 236 ms,so I want to know why the first stage in uboot spend so much time, so I want to configure gpio1_20 by register ,then I can test the time by Oscilloscope ,the logo is follow:

in uboot you can look at gpio example in enet_device_phy_reset() in

uboot/board/freescale/imx8qxp_mek/imx8qxp_mek.c

imx8qxp_mek.c\imx8qxp_mek\freescale\board - uboot-imx - i.MX U-Boot

Yes, I know this way?

but before applay this sc_pad_set() fuction to set gpio1_20 ,uboot startup had spend more than 200ms, so I want to know how to configure it in start.s when power on and I want to know why spend so much time before ,so I want to configure it by register the same as IMX51+WINCE6.0基于SD_MMC启动—XLDR(3)之xldr.s | 学步园

thanks!

or like this https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/bXbBvRTq27OmXVSZw90N8Q ,but IMX8QXP I do not know how to configure the gpio
