Hi Andrew
Thanks a lot, that solved it :-)
Here is my code for later reference (probably to myself)
int get_pin_state(int gpio_pin)
{
int value;
// Enable the clock to the GPIO (enable input sampling)
HAL_WRITE_UINT32(AT91_PMC + AT91_PMC_PCER, AT91_PMC_PCER_PIOA);
HAL_ARM_AT91_GPIO_CFG_DIRECTION(gpio_pin, AT91_PIN_IN);
HAL_ARM_AT91_GPIO_GET(gpio_pin, value);
return value;
}
Cheers
Rasmus
