How to modify pinctrl for ls1021 dts file

sujay1 — Mon, 17 Aug 2020 13:09:22 GMT

I'm using a custom board based on ls1021atwr, and would like to change the pin configuration as per custom board schematics,

For boards like imx6q or imx6dl there is a imx6qdl-sabresd.dtsi file that has a pinctrl field which lets us choose the mux configuration of various pins,

However I found no such entry in ls1021.dtsi or ls1021a-twr.dts, how can I change mux pin config? I could also not find an iomux node in this dts, is the procedure to change mux pins different for this board?

Pinmuxing of the LS1021A is controlled by appropriate fields in RCW (Reset Configuration Word) applied during POR (Power-on Reset). Further re-configuring by software means is not supported.

Reference: QorIQ LS1021A Reference Manual, 3.4 Signal multiplexing details and 4.4.6.1 RCW field definitions.

To create RCW it is strongly recommended to use CodeWarrior QorIQ Configuration and Validation Suite component - PBL Tool:

Hi ufedor,

I installed code warrior and did the pin-muxing, however that only generated an xml file, If I generate processor Expert code will these pin mux details reflect in pbl?

Please use the QCVS PBL Tool and insert the verified pin-muxing settings manually.

Ok I understand now, I go to component inspector in the pbl tool then to pin muxing and then modify based on what I want. Just one more thing, in IRQ_EXT its mentioned See IRQ_BASE description, where is this defined? I can see "For additional information see description of the IRQ_BASE field in device documentation" what is this device doc? is it reference manual fo ls10s1a?

Please refer to the QorIQ LS1021A Reference Manual, Table 4-14. RCW field descriptions:

"373-375

IRQ_BASE

This field configures the functionality of IRQ[3:5] pins.
The corresponding GPIOs for these pins are GPIO1[23:25].
Options for each bit:
0 IRQ
1 GPIO1"

My custom board uses i2c1_scl and i2c1_sda but I can only see i2c2 in IIC_BASE field, wha change should I make to configure i2c1?

The I2C1 signals are not multiplexed - refer to the QorIQ LS1021A Data Sheet, Table 1. Pinout list by bus, I2C
