robertlipe opened a new issue #5810: URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/issues/5810
1) Some RISC-V architectures have as many as 80 GPIOs. Defining those in KConfigs will be annoying, especially given the current awesome trend of pins being behind a MUX so they can be configured as Inputs, Outputs, or Interrupts. This is a project-wide issue and I don't really know how to fix this. 2) For those arches, the various places defining GPIOs as a bitmask isn't going to work. Since I've discovered that almost all of the current RISC-V targets break over 1 GPIO with only ESP32 reaching 2 as a breaking point, supporting 'only' a long long's of bits isn't terrible. 3) BOARD_NGPIOfoo is defined in the board-specific, configurable board.h. However, they're used in the boards/risc-v/*/*/src/foo_gpio.c files, which are arch-specific and not board-specific. Thus, if you want to add GPIOs, you can't do it solely in boards.h; you have to modify the OS configuration. I have added an example for BL602 on how to at least DEBUG_ASSERT on this configuration error instead of expensive chasing. The basic idea either needs to be hoisted higher into the infrastructure somewhere or repeated into a *bunch* of foo_gpio.c files. Of course, this patch is only relevant until an appropriate design for no.1 here has a better design applied. 4) BL604 supports up to 23 GPIOs; BL602 up to 16. (They're probably the same wafer, just packaged differently.) There are several cases of uint8_t pin = (cfgset & GPIO_PIN_MASK) >> GPIO_PIN_SHIFT; in the code. That's just not going to work for any pin > pin8, though that case has clearly never been exercised in light of no. 3, but I made a patch for that for BL602 that probably helps. Again, this should be in a test case and probably higher level or repeated DEBUG_ASSERTSs to catch it somewhere. src/mpfs/mpfs_gpio.c is almost surely wrong and searching for "8_t.*MASK" elsewhere in the tree brings attention to code that may need inspection. Possible patch attached. These patches are created by hand (to exclude local changes) and may need hand-fitting, but since they're all one-liners, they should be easy to repair if needed. gpio.patch addresses the issues in BL602 for GPIO >= 8. at least mpfs needs this, too. gpio2.patch is inspiration on the bandaid for debug checking that board.h matches *gpio.c. This needs to be ported to every *gpio.c file. Ick. (And nobody is building for RISC-V with a 1989 compiler.. That code is already using designated initializers, which is from C99, which has // comments.) [gpio.patch.txt](https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/files/8312724/gpio.patch.txt) [gpio.patch2.txt](https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/files/8312725/gpio.patch2.txt) Neither of these tries to fix the similar existing problems (def. in ESP-32 and MPFS) elsewhere in the tree. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
