How to add a FlexIO timer Interrupt Service Routine?

imxrtuser — Tue, 21 Jan 2020 07:22:38 GMT

Hello!

I am using two FlexIO Timers in a chain on the RT1020. Timer 0 is used as trigger for Timer 1 and Timer 1 generates an interrupt.

I followed the flexio spi driver and added two functions and some typedefs/structs. The first function is a TimerHandleIRQ (->analogous to FLEXIO_SPI_SlaveTransferHandleIRQ) and the second one creates a timer handle (->FLEXIO_SPI_MasterTransferCreateHandle). The IRQ function and the handle get registered with FLEXIO_RegisterHandleIRQ() of fsl_flexio.c.

typedef struct _flexio_timer_type
{
    FLEXIO_Type *flexioBase; /*!< FlexIO base pointer. */
} FLEXIO_TIMER_Type;

/*! @brief  typedef for flexio_timer_handle_t in advance. */
typedef struct _flexio_timer_handle flexio_timer_handle_t;

/*! @brief Define FlexIO timer handle structure. */
/*! @brief FlexIO timer callback if timer interrupt is pending*/
typedef void (*flexio_timer_callback_t)(FLEXIO_TIMER_Type *base,
                                        flexio_timer_handle_t *handle,
                                        status_t status);
// flexio timer handle
struct _flexio_timer_handle
{
    flexio_timer_callback_t callback; /*!< FlexIO timer callback. */
};

// user call back function, if togglePin == 1 the user led gets toggled in main
void FLEXIO_TimerUserCallback(FLEXIO_TIMER_Type *base,
                                   flexio_timer_handle_t *handle,
                                   status_t status)
{
    if ((status & 0x2) == 0x2) // Timer 1 interrupt
    {
      togglePin = 1;
    }
}


// create the flexio timer handle and register it
status_t FLEXIO_TimerCreateHandle(FLEXIO_TIMER_Type *base,
                                               flexio_timer_handle_t *handle,
                                               flexio_timer_callback_t callback)
{
    assert(handle);

    IRQn_Type flexio_irqs[] = FLEXIO_IRQS;

    /* Zero the handle. */
    memset(handle, 0, sizeof(*handle));

    /* Register callback. */
    handle->callback = callback;

    /* Enable interrupt in NVIC. */
    EnableIRQ(flexio_irqs[FLEXIO_GetInstance(base->flexioBase)]);

    /* Save the context in global variables to support the double weak mechanism. */
    return FLEXIO_RegisterHandleIRQ(base, handle, FLEXIO_TimerHandleIRQ);
}

// the interrupt service routine which gets called if there is a FlexIO interrupt
void FLEXIO_TimerHandleIRQ(void *timerType, void *timerHandle)
{
    assert(timerHandle);

    flexio_timer_handle_t *handle = (flexio_timer_handle_t *)timerHandle;
    FLEXIO_TIMER_Type *base;
    uint32_t status;
 
        if (handle->callback)
        {
             base   = (FLEXIO_TIMER_Type *)timerType;
             status = FLEXIO_GetTimerStatusFlags(base->flexioBase);
             FLEXIO_ClearTimerStatusFlags(base->flexioBase, status);
            (handle->callback)(base, handle, status);
        }
}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I would like to know if this is the correct way to add a custom FlexIO timer ISR or if there is an easier way to register a custom FlexIO timer ISR. Unfortunately I can't find a FlexIO timer driver or application note.

Kind regards,

Stefan

Hello Stefan,

Unfortunately, we do not have any FlexIO timer driver. However, your application seems correct to from my perspective.

In addition, I recommend you to check the following community document that can give you more hints regarding FlexIO functionality and implementation.

Best regards,

Hello Felipe,

thank you for your answer!

The code is working but I think that are quite a lot of structures and functions just to be able to respond to the interrupt. I think it is easier to just override FLEXIO1_IRQHandler (defined as PUBWEAK FLEXIO1_IRQHandler in startup_MIMXRT1021.s), if there are no other drivers which need to respond to a FlexIO interrupt.

So now I'm just doing the following:

// Prototype definition
void FLEXIO1_IRQHandler(void);

// The ISR function
void FLEXIO1_IRQHandler(void)
{
  uint32_t status = FLEXIO_GetTimerStatusFlags(FLEXIO1);
  FLEXIO_ClearTimerStatusFlags(FLEXIO1, status);
  if ((status & 0x2) == 0x2) // Timer 1 interrupt
    {
      togglePin = 1;
    }  
}

//and in main I just enable the FlexIO IRQ after initializing the FlexIO timers
IRQn_Type flexio_irqs[] = FLEXIO_IRQS;
EnableIRQ(flexio_irqs[FLEXIO_GetInstance(FLEXIO1)]);‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Kind regards,

Stefan
