Hello,

I tried several things to put pin 8_16 into mode 6 for usage by the PRU for
high speed IO.
Up to now without any luck.  I am using FreeBSD 12.1

Question: how can I put a pin on beagle bone black to mode 6?

I did the following:

To get full speed IO signals I would like to use the enhanced GPIO on the
PRU.
To do this a device tree overlay is needed. I found a nice example on the
internet. https://nilshoel.home.blog/
In this example pin P8.16 is set to input mode 6.

/dts-v1/;
/plugin/;

/ {
compatible =3D "ti,beaglebone", "ti,beaglebone-black", "ti,beaglebone-green=
";

    // identification
    part-number =3D "PRU-UIO-EXAMPLE-PINS";
    version =3D "00A0";


   fragment@0 {
    target =3D <&am33xx_pinmux>;
    __overlay__ {
      example_pins: pinmux_pru_pru_pins {
       pinctrl-single,pins =3D <
         0x38 0x26 /* Pin 8_16 in gpmc_ad14 Mode 6 */
       >;
      };
    };
   };


   fragment@1 {
    target-path=3D"<&pruss>";
    __overlay__ {
      pinctrl-names =3D "default";
      pinctrl-0 =3D <&example_pins>;
      status =3D "okay";
     };
   };
};


The file (egpio.dtso) is converted by

dtc =E2=80=93I dts =E2=80=93O dtb =E2=80=93o /boot/dtb/overlays/egpio.dtbo =
egpio.dtso

The egpio.dtbo is added in the file loader.conf to the line

fdt_overlays=3D"am335x-boneblack-pruss.dtbo,egpio.dtbo"

am335x-boneblack-pruss.dtbo is to enable the pruss

/dts-v1/;
/plugin/;

/ {
                compatible =3D "ti,am335x-bone-black", "ti,am335x-bone",
"ti,am33xx";

                fragment@0 {
                               target-path=3D"/";
                               __overlay__ {
                                               ocp {

#address-cells =3D <1>;
                                                               #size-cells
=3D <1>;


pruss@4a300000 {

status =3D "okay";

compatible =3D "ti,pruss-v2";

ti,deassert-hard-reset =3D "pruss", "pruss";

reg =3D <0x4a300000 0x080000>;

ti,pintc-offset =3D <0x20000>;

interrupt-parent =3D <&intc>;

interrupts =3D <20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27>;
                                                               };
                                               };
                               };
                };
};

In the PRU(0) I start a little test program which sets a userled
to on when the pin is sampled high and sets the userled to off when the pin
is sampled low.
The pin should be in mode 6 to be able to read the high value. If I use
some timer construction in the pru assembly  program bellow the leds are
blinking so the pru is up and running.

Run on pru:(and give the pin signals)

I also tried to set the pinmux using the pru but no luck (as expected).
https://vadl.github.io/beagleboneblack/2016/07/29/setting-up-bbb-gpio

#define P8_16                                 0x44E10838
          MOV     r2, 0x26                     // val

          SBBO    r2, r0, 0, 4                  // store


For low speed setting or reading pin like

#include <libgpio.h>

  gself.m_gpio2 =3D gpio_open(2);
  gpio_pin_input (gself.m_gpio2, 22);
  gpio_close(gself.m_gpio2);

works very well.
