An additional note of import, a majority of Zephyr RTOS `z_` implementation functions are just wrappers to third party, often Hardware Abstraction Layer function definitions.  This wrapping of a Zephyr API around specific microcontroller families decouples Zephyr from knowing or needing to know about hardware details of a given target hardware.  This decoupling is very important!

This section created to help address a challenge we have, setting up a sensor interrupt or Zephyr "trigger" in KX132 driver.  While unsure, there is suspicion that the `int_gpio` member of the sensor's `config` data structure may not be getting assigned a GPIO port at all, in an early Zephyr init level at boot time.  In a diagnostic, `cfg->int_gpio.port->name` shows as "=&", which does not look like a valid port name.

In a driver use case, the interrupt line(s) or pins themselves likely won't require a DTS node alias.  These GPIO pins will be expressed as values in the sensor's device tree node.  The property will be one of `irq-gpios`, `drdy-gpios` and similar, depending on the given sensor's device tree bindings file.  Of course, the port controlling the given pins must somewhere in device tree or DTS overlay files be enabled.

=== [[#top|^]] QUESTION sensor interrupts configured in drivers at boot time? ===
 +
 +
From 2022 Q4, it looks like Zephyr sensor drivers, a couple at least, may not handle or set up SPI chip select lines.  This so in spite of there being a way to express chip select lines in device tree overlays.  From other work in 2022 Q4 it looks further like certain Zephyr out-of-tree drivers may also not provide for setting up sensor interrupts at boot time.  In particular, contributor Ted has so far found few to no example code or developer forum posts on how to configure STMicro sensor "data ready" interrupts in or using the driver provided by STMicro.
 +
 +
It is possible to manually set up a GPIO port and pin to serve as a physical interrupt line coming into the MCU.  This can be done by borrowing code from [https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/tree/main/samples/basic/buttonZephyr 3.2.0 button sample app].  But is this always necessary when enabling a hardware interrupt line support from a sensor, in a Zephyr based app?
 +
 +
So far still in the research and debugging stage on this question.  Some references to Zephyr triggers include:

OVERVIEW

2022 Q4 notes on Zephyr RTOS drivers, driver frameworks and driver design. Current projects include work to extend KX132-1211 Zephyr out-of-tree driver, plus work to craft an IIS2DH driver which supports in Zephyr RTOS context both I2C and SPI bus connections for this sensor.


^ Example Zephyr drivers

Example apps here offer varying amounts of insight into Zephyr RTOS' framework(s) for device driver development. Of particular interest 2022 Q4 are the ways in which developers use Zephyr device tree macros to obtain pointers to devices, in their mostly C based code, at compile time. Though not fully explained in Zephyr's extensive documentation it appears that device pointers which can be correctly passed to and used with API function device_is_ready() and macro DEVICE_DT_GET() involve pairings of macros, which must be expanded prior to these calls in order to compile correctly.

ted@localhost1:~/projects-sandbox/workspace-out-of-tree/zephyr$ grep -nr init_res ./* | grep -v reset | grep init_res
./include/zephyr/device.h:416:	unsigned int init_res : 8;
./include/zephyr/net/dns_resolve.h:459:void dns_init_resolver(void);
./include/zephyr/net/dns_resolve.h:462:#define dns_init_resolver(...)
./kernel/device.c:84:				dev->state->init_res = rc;
./kernel/device.c:161:	return dev->state->initialized && (dev->state->init_res == 0U);
./subsys/net/ip/net_core.c:476:	dns_init_resolver();
./subsys/net/lib/dns/resolve.c:1428:void dns_init_resolver(void)

What's going on in LM77 temperature sensor Kconfig file, on line 10? Interesting Kconfig stanza contains $(dt_compat_enabled,lm77):


Zephyr sensor API routine `device_is_ready()` is prototyped in zephyr/include/zephyr/device.h. A search for `device_is_ready()` implementation gives:

ted@localhost1:~/projects-sandbox/workspace-out-of-tree/zephyr$ grep -nr z_device_is_ready ./*
./include/zephyr/device.h:782:bool z_device_is_ready(const struct device *dev);
./include/zephyr/device.h:803:	return z_device_is_ready(dev);
./kernel/device.c:108:		if (z_device_is_ready(dev) && (dev->name == name)) {
./kernel/device.c:114:		if (z_device_is_ready(dev) && (strcmp(name, dev->name) == 0)) {
./kernel/device.c:151:bool z_device_is_ready(const struct device *dev)

The body of this API routine is:

bool z_device_is_ready(const struct device *dev)
{
        /*
         * if an invalid device pointer is passed as argument, this call
         * reports the `device` as not ready for usage.
         */
        if (dev == NULL) {
                return false;
        }

        return dev->state->initialized && (dev->state->init_res == 0U);
}

Having some trouble, however, finding places where `init_res` and `initialized` data members of device state structure get initialized. Looked recursively in both modules and zephyr source tree. Looks like there may be one place where this assignment takes place, in `zephyr/kernel/device.c`:

ted@localhost1:~/projects-sandbox/workspace-out-of-tree/zephyr$ grep -nr init_res ./* | grep -v reset | grep init_res
./include/zephyr/device.h:416:	unsigned int init_res : 8;
./include/zephyr/net/dns_resolve.h:459:void dns_init_resolver(void);
./include/zephyr/net/dns_resolve.h:462:#define dns_init_resolver(...)
./kernel/device.c:84:				dev->state->init_res = rc;
./kernel/device.c:161:	return dev->state->initialized && (dev->state->init_res == 0U);
./subsys/net/ip/net_core.c:476:	dns_init_resolver();
./subsys/net/lib/dns/resolve.c:1428:void dns_init_resolver(void)

Routine which iterates over and initializes all devices needing initialization prior to app code starting:

 54 void z_sys_init_run_level(int32_t level)
 55 {
 56         static const struct init_entry *levels[] = {
 57                 __init_PRE_KERNEL_1_start,
 58                 __init_PRE_KERNEL_2_start,
 59                 __init_POST_KERNEL_start,
 60                 __init_APPLICATION_start,
 61 #ifdef CONFIG_SMP
 62                 __init_SMP_start,
 63 #endif
 64                 /* End marker */
 65                 __init_end,
 66         };
 67         const struct init_entry *entry;
 68 
 69         for (entry = levels[level]; entry < levels[level+1]; entry++) {
 70                 const struct device *dev = entry->dev;
 71                 int rc = entry->init(dev);
 72 
 73                 if (dev != NULL) {
 74                         /* Mark device initialized.  If initialization
 75                          * failed, record the error condition.
 76                          */
 77                         if (rc != 0) { 
 78                                 if (rc < 0) {
 79                                         rc = -rc;
 80                                 }
 81                                 if (rc > UINT8_MAX) {
 82                                         rc = UINT8_MAX;
 83                                 }
 84                                 dev->state->init_res = rc;
 85                         }
 86                         dev->state->initialized = true;
 87                 }
 88         }
 89 }

Sensor init priority:

ted@localhost1:~/projects-sandbox/workspace-for-nexus/zephyr$ grep -nr SENSOR_INIT_PRIORITY ./* | grep -v CONFIG_SENSOR | grep SENSOR_INIT_PRIORITY

^ device_get_binding API routine

2022-1129 New section on Zephyr `device_get_binding()` API, which Ted hopes can serve as a run time, dynamic assigner of device pointers for reintializing hung hardware or late-to-start, indeterminate start time hardware.

As of past four days 2022 Nov 26 through 29 Ted finds that Zephyr has a strong leaning to set up devices at boot time, and have device structures and pointers declared and assigned largely at compile time. The "DT_INST" family macros all seem designed to work only as static declarations, not as part of code which can refer to and assign a pointer to a device at arbitrary firmware run times. Build time errors seem to indicate that these macros expand correctly, as intended, when they appear at a global or file scoped level. That is, a macro such as DEVICE_DT_INST_DEFINE compiles correctly -- if in largely hidden ways -- when it appears outside the scope of any C function. In contrast Zephyr build tools through errors when this and related DT_ macros appear in function bodies. It looks like these macros may not be expanding inside the function bodies. There must be some basic C rules here we don't yet fully grasp . . .

In searching Zephyr 3.2.0 source tree for instances of calls to `device_get_binding()`, Ted looking for way or ways that code builds the device name parameter this API routine expects. There are many use instances of this API routine in Zephyr's `tests` directory. There is one test whose CMakeLists.txt file includes interesting notes:

"./tests/kernel/device/CMakeLists.txt" 16L, 660C

Further, there are some Zephyr code samples which also call `device_get_binding()` with a given device name. One of the I2S samples looks promising, it's at zephyr/samples/drivers/i2s/litex where in main.c there's a call to `device_get_binding("i2s_rx")`. The parameter here is double quoted, so its a hard-coded string. But what does this match? A search for this pattern from the top level Zephyr 3.2.0 source tree dir reveals:

^ Zephyr Kernel Level Device Support

Interesting code excerpt from `zephy/kernel/device.c`, this following routine is the implementation behind a wrapper like function `device_is_ready()`. But this routine, and sensibly so, doesn't say anything about how a given device is initialized. It only looks at two data members of a device instance data structure:

150 
151 bool z_device_is_ready(const struct device *dev)
152 {
153         /*
154          * if an invalid device pointer is passed as argument, this call
155          * reports the `device` as not ready for usage.
156          */
157         if (dev == NULL) {
158                 return false;
159         }
160 
161         return dev->state->initialized && (dev->state->init_res == 0U);
162 }
163 

An additional note of import, a majority of Zephyr RTOS `z_` implementation functions are just wrappers to third party, often Hardware Abstraction Layer function definitions. This wrapping of a Zephyr API around specific microcontroller families decouples Zephyr from knowing or needing to know about hardware details of a given target hardware. This decoupling is very important!

On a somewhat unrelated note, a couple of important Zephyr documents, including Zephyr device tree macros used to obtain node identifiers:


^ Understanding Zephyr SPI API

To make use of Zephyr API for SPI bus, we must in part understand how each of the three parameters passed to spi_read() and spi_write() are defined. Further, when we have a sensor with which we communicate in our Zephyr based app we need to understand how parts of this sensor's 'config' structure (1) in the firmware relate to the SPI bus to which the sensor is connected. Our sensor driver's code which talks with the sensor via SPI must pass certain SPI bus related pointers to Zephyr's SPI Application Programmers' Interface.

Another important SPI defining resource in Zephyr RTOS is the header file spi.h#L379. This file defines the small data structure named `spi_dt_spec`. It gives us the data member names for a SPI bus peripheral, as Zephyr sees them.

2022-11-25

The best Zephyr SPI instructions we find so far are in the sample app `spi_bitbang`. The source file main.c there, sets up RX and TX buffers, and some Zephyr driver structures about these. There is an interesting design pattern in Zephyr's SPI API: receive and transmit buffer pairs can be made multiple, in two arrays of these same buffers. The SPI interface function `spi_tranceive()`, about which spi_write() and spi_read() wrap, steps through the count of write buffers and receive buffers it is passed from calling code. In this way, a careful choosing of sets of buffers permits app developers to express more complex SPI communications by defining the buffers with needed lengths, and then call the SPI API of Zephyr RTOS just once.

Section footnotes:
(1) in Zephyr 2.6.0 some device drivers such as IIS2DH placed bus device pointers in sensor's structure 'data', for mutable sensor data. Newer Zephyr releases, at latest by 3.2.0, IIS2DH driver authors have moved bus device pointers to this sensor's 'config' structure, designed to hold unchanging, compile-time assigned data.


^ Zephyr logging

Note, in a Zephyr project or an out-of-tree driver, what we have learned here is that LOG_MODULE_REGISTER(project_name) must be called in one -- possibly the first -- of the project's source files. Any other dot c files from which developers need logging capability must include the function like macro LOG_MODULE_DECLARE().


^ LPC55S69 flexcomm2 and hs_lspi pins conflict

zephyr/boards/arm/lpcxpresso55s69/lpcxpresso55s69-pinctrl.dtsi lines 21 - 28

Note that in spite of the comment above in the dot dtsi file from NXP, SPI communications with an IIS2DH sensor work while UART2 is also in use and working - TMH


^ STMicro device context data structure

Symbol `stmdev_ctx_t` is defined in file modules/hal/st/sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.c. On github this file as of 2022-11-18 located at https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/hal_st/tree/master/sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver'

Data structure `stmdev_ctx_t` defined as follows:

 104 /** @addtogroup  Interfaces_Functions
 105   * @brief       This section provide a set of functions used to read and
 106   *              write a generic register of the device.
 107   *              MANDATORY: return 0 -> no Error.
 108   * @{
 109   *
 110   */
 111 
 112 typedef int32_t (*stmdev_write_ptr)(void *, uint8_t, const uint8_t *, uint16_t);
 113 typedef int32_t (*stmdev_read_ptr)(void *, uint8_t, uint8_t *, uint16_t);
 114 
 115 typedef struct
 116 {
 117   /** Component mandatory fields **/
 118   stmdev_write_ptr  write_reg;
 119   stmdev_read_ptr   read_reg;
 120   /** Customizable optional pointer **/
 121   void *handle;
 122 } stmdev_ctx_t;

Parameter lists for the register write and register read functions are nearly the same, with exception of the third parameter. In the register write function this parameter is qualified with C `const`, as it is only expected to be read by the function using it.


With the above definition, an instance of stmdev_cts_t is created for each device with device tree compatible property of 'st_iis2dh', and is assigned in `zephyr/drivers/sensor/iis2dh/iis2dh-i2c.c` as follows:

 38 stmdev_ctx_t iis2dh_i2c_ctx = {
 39         .read_reg = (stmdev_read_ptr) iis2dh_i2c_read,
 40         .write_reg = (stmdev_write_ptr) iis2dh_i2c_write,
 41 };
 42 
 43 int iis2dh_i2c_init(const struct device *dev)
 44 {
 45         struct iis2dh_data *data = dev->data;
 46         const struct iis2dh_device_config *config = dev->config;
 47 
 48         if (!device_is_ready(config->i2c.bus)) {
 49                 LOG_ERR("Bus device is not ready");
 50                 return -ENODEV;
 51         }
 52 
 53         data->ctx = &iis2dh_i2c_ctx;
 54         data->ctx->handle = (void *)dev;
 55 
 56         return 0;
 57 }
 58 #endif /* DT_ANY_INST_ON_BUS_STATUS_OKAY(i2c) */

The above init function is called from iis2dh.c:

232 static int iis2dh_init_interface(const struct device *dev)
233 {
234         int res;
235 
236 #if DT_ANY_INST_ON_BUS_STATUS_OKAY(spi)
237         res = iis2dh_spi_init(dev);
238         if (res) {
239                 return res;
240         }
241 #elif DT_ANY_INST_ON_BUS_STATUS_OKAY(i2c)
242         res = iis2dh_i2c_init(dev);
243         if (res) {
244                 return res;
245         }
246 #else
247 #error "BUS MACRO NOT DEFINED IN DTS"
248 #endif
249 
250         return 0;
251 }
252 
253 static int iis2dh_init(const struct device *dev)
254 {
255         struct iis2dh_data *iis2dh = dev->data;
256         const struct iis2dh_device_config *cfg = dev->config;
257         uint8_t wai;
258 
259         if (iis2dh_init_interface(dev)) {
260                 return -EINVAL;
261         }


Pointer *dev has a member named 'data', which in turn has a member named 'ctx', which in turn gets assigned the address of a not named instance of `iis2dh_i2c_ctx`. This means that we have `dev->data->ctx->read_reg()` and `dev->data->ctx->write_reg` on successful completion of routine iis2dh_i2c_init(). This is reflected in modules/hal/st/sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.c, in the two generalized register read and write functions:

  39 /**

  47   *
  48   */
  49 int32_t iis2dh_read_reg(stmdev_ctx_t *ctx, uint8_t reg, uint8_t *data,
  50                         uint16_t len)
  51 {
  52   int32_t ret;
  53 
  54   ret = ctx->read_reg(ctx->handle, reg, data, len);

  56   return ret;

  69 int32_t iis2dh_write_reg(stmdev_ctx_t *ctx, uint8_t reg,

^ Zephyr interrupts

This sections aims to cover Zephyr interrupts, and some example Zephyr interrupt set up code fragments.

In Zephyr RTOS context, triggers are interrupts which are generated by sensors. Zephyr constructs a notion of "trigger types" and "trigger channels". Some pages from Zephyr 3.2.0 documentation:


This section created to help address a challenge we have, setting up a sensor interrupt or Zephyr "trigger" in KX132 driver. While unsure, there is suspicion that the `int_gpio` member of the sensor's `config` data structure may not be getting assigned a GPIO port at all, in an early Zephyr init level at boot time. In a diagnostic, `cfg->int_gpio.port->name` shows as "=&", which does not look like a valid port name.

KX132's config data structure include set up codes this snippet of code:

 58         uint8_t pm;
 59 #ifdef CONFIG_KX132_TRIGGER
 60 #warning "KX132 1211 driver - compiling gpio_dt_spec instance in struct 'kx132_device_config'"
 61 // # REF https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/blob/main/include/zephyr/drivers/gpio.h#L271
 62         struct gpio_dt_spec int_gpio;
 63 #endif /* CONFIG_KX132_TRIGGER */
 64 };

In a different sample app, iis2dh-driver-demo, we were able to set up a trigger per the code from Zephyr's `samples/basic/button` app. The early declarative elements to prepare to use a GPIO pin on the MCU, as an interrupt input line connected to a sensor, are in this sample:

 127 #include <zephyr/drivers/gpio.h>   // needed to provide GPIO_DT_SPEC_GET_OR Zephyr device tree macro
 128 
 129 #define SENSOR_INT1_NODE        DT_ALIAS(sensorinterrupt1)
 130 #if !DT_NODE_HAS_STATUS(SENSOR_INT1_NODE, okay)
 131 #error "- DEV 1108 - Could not find in device tree source any sensor interrupt type node!"
 132 #endif
 133 //static const struct gpio_dt_spec button = GPIO_DT_SPEC_GET_OR(SW0_NODE, gpios, {0});
 134 static const struct gpio_dt_spec interrupt_line_1 = GPIO_DT_SPEC_GET_OR(SENSOR_INT1_NODE, gpios, {0});
 135 
 136 static struct gpio_callback sensor_interrupt_1_cb_data;

Device tree overlay expresses the above referenced DTS node alias:

  5 / {
  6     aliases {
  9         sensorinterrupt1 = &iis2dhint1;
 11     };
 12 };

 65 / {
 66         sensor_interrupts {
 67                 compatible = "gpi set up codeo-keys";
 68                 iis2dhint1: iis2dh_int1 {
 69                         gpios = < &gpio1 9 (GPIO_PULL_UP | GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW)>;
 70                 };
 71                 /* ... other buttons ... */
 72         };
 73 };
set up code

In a driver use case, the interrupt line(s) or pins themselves likely won't require a DTS node alias. These GPIO pins will be expressed as values in the sensor's device tree node. The property will be one of `irq-gpios`, `drdy-gpios` and similar, depending on the given sensor's device tree bindings file. Of course, the port controlling the given pins must somewhere in device tree or DTS overlay files be enabled.



Zephyr interrupt set up code from button sample app . . .

      MODULE_ID__THREAD_IIS2DH, sensor->state->init_res);



// 'button' from samples/basic/button becomes 'interrupt_line_1':

// STEP config step
        if (!device_is_ready(interrupt_line_1.port)) {
                printk("Error: sensor interrupt 1 port '%s' detected as not ready\n",
                       interrupt_line_1.port->name);
//                return;
        }

// STEP config step
        rstatus = gpio_pin_configure_dt(&interrupt_line_1, GPIO_INPUT);
        if (rstatus != 0) { 
                printk("Error %d: failed to configure %s pin %d\n",
                       rstatus, interrupt_line_1.port->name, interrupt_line_1.pin);
//                return;
        }

// STEP config step
        rstatus = gpio_pin_interrupt_configure_dt(&interrupt_line_1,
                                              GPIO_INT_EDGE_TO_ACTIVE);
        if (rstatus != 0) { 
                printk("Error %d: failed to configure interrupt on %s pin %d\n",
                        rstatus, interrupt_line_1.port->name, interrupt_line_1.pin);
//                return;
        }

// STEP config step
//        gpio_init_callback(&button_cb_data, button_pressed, BIT(button.pin));
//        gpio_add_callback(button.port, &button_cb_data);
//        printk("Set up button at %s pin %d\n", button.port->name, button.pin);

        gpio_init_callback(&sensor_interrupt_1_cb_data, sensor_interrupt_1_cb, BIT(interrupt_line_1.pin));
        gpio_add_callback(interrupt_line_1.port, &sensor_interrupt_1_cb_data);
        printk("Set up button at %s pin %d\n", interrupt_line_1.port->name, interrupt_line_1.pin);

Interestingly this demo code gives the following port name after the GPIO based interrupt is successfully configured:

*** Booting Zephyr OS build zephyr-v3.2.0  ***

Set up button at gpio@1 pin 9

Name `gpio@1` is definitely not equivalent or like `=&`. So QUESTION: where in the run time process, and in the source code of a given out-of-tree driver, is a valid port controller assigned to `const struct device *dev->cfg->int_gpio.port`?

In Jared Wolff's sgp40 driver there's explicit code to assign values to sensor data structure members which support an enable line. Line of interest is sgp40.c line 153. In this case the line communication is an enable line, not an interrupt, but the needed set up should be equivalent.

QUESTION: where and how is STMicro IIS2DH driver achieving the same set up for its "data ready", drdy gpio?


    ^ QUESTION sensor interrupts configured in drivers at boot time?

    From 2022 Q4, it looks like Zephyr sensor drivers, a couple at least, may not handle or set up SPI chip select lines. This so in spite of there being a way to express chip select lines in device tree overlays. From other work in 2022 Q4 it looks further like certain Zephyr out-of-tree drivers may also not provide for setting up sensor interrupts at boot time. In particular, contributor Ted has so far found few to no example code or developer forum posts on how to configure STMicro sensor "data ready" interrupts in or using the driver provided by STMicro.

    It is possible to manually set up a GPIO port and pin to serve as a physical interrupt line coming into the MCU. This can be done by borrowing code from 3.2.0 button sample app. But is this always necessary when enabling a hardware interrupt line support from a sensor, in a Zephyr based app?

    So far still in the research and debugging stage on this question. Some references to Zephyr triggers include:


^ C Preprocessor macros


^ Zephyr device tree macros

Section on Zephyr device tree macros, many defined in devicetree.h. Also worth noting is Zephyr 3.2.0 notes on device drivers that depend on other devices.


^ device drivers two ways

Zephyr documentation states that, using devicetree API there are two way to write device drivers. These ways are (1) by using instance numbers and (2) by using nodelabels. Links to both these device driver topics:

Definition of DT_INST

 232 /**
 233  * @brief Get a node identifier for an instance of a compatible
 234  *
 235  * All nodes with a particular compatible property value are assigned
 236  * instance numbers, which are zero-based indexes specific to that
 237  * compatible. You can get a node identifier for these nodes by
 238  * passing DT_INST() an instance number, @p inst, along with the
 239  * lowercase-and-underscores version of the compatible, @p compat.
 240  *
 241  * Instance numbers have the following properties:
 242  *
 243  * - for each compatible, instance numbers start at 0 and are contiguous
 244  * - exactly one instance number is assigned for each node with a compatible,
 245  *   **including disabled nodes**
 246  * - enabled nodes (status property is `okay` or missing) are assigned the
 247  *   instance numbers starting from 0, and disabled nodes have instance
 248  *   numbers which are greater than those of any enabled node
 249  *
 250  * No other guarantees are made. In particular:
 251  *
 252  * - instance numbers **in no way reflect** any numbering scheme that
 253  *   might exist in SoC documentation, node labels or unit addresses,
 254  *   or properties of the /aliases node (use DT_NODELABEL() or DT_ALIAS()
 255  *   for those)
 256  * - there **is no general guarantee** that the same node will have
 257  *   the same instance number between builds, even if you are building
 258  *   the same application again in the same build directory
 259  *
 260  * Example devicetree fragment:
 261  *
 262  * @code{.dts}
 263  *     serial1: serial@40001000 {
 264  *             compatible = "vnd,soc-serial";
 265  *             status = "disabled";
 266  *             current-speed = <9600>;
 267  *             ...
 268  *     };
 269  *
 270  *     serial2: serial@40002000 {
 271  *             compatible = "vnd,soc-serial";
 272  *             status = "okay";
 273  *             current-speed = <57600>;
 274  *             ...
 275  *     };
 276  *
 277  *     serial3: serial@40003000 {
 278  *             compatible = "vnd,soc-serial";
 279  *             current-speed = <115200>;
 280  *             ...
 281  *     };

 282  * @endcode
 283  *
 284  * Assuming no other nodes in the devicetree have compatible
 285  * `"vnd,soc-serial"`, that compatible has nodes with instance numbers
 286  * 0, 1, and 2.
 287  *
 288  * The nodes `serial@40002000` and `serial@40003000` are both enabled, so
 289  * their instance numbers are 0 and 1, but no guarantees are made
 290  * regarding which node has which instance number.
 291  *
 292  * Since `serial@40001000` is the only disabled node, it has instance
 293  * number 2, since disabled nodes are assigned the largest instance
 294  * numbers. Therefore:
 295  *
 296  * @code{.c}
 297  *     // Could be 57600 or 115200. There is no way to be sure:
 298  *     // either serial@40002000 or serial@40003000 could
 299  *     // have instance number 0, so this could be the current-speed
 300  *     // property of either of those nodes.
 301  *     DT_PROP(DT_INST(0, vnd_soc_serial), current_speed)
 302  *
 303  *     // Could be 57600 or 115200, for the same reason.
 304  *     // If the above expression expands to 57600, then
 305  *     // this expands to 115200, and vice-versa.
 306  *     DT_PROP(DT_INST(1, vnd_soc_serial), current_speed)
 307  *
 308  *     // 9600, because there is only one disabled node, and
 309  *     // disabled nodes are "at the the end" of the instance
 310  *     // number "list".
 311  *     DT_PROP(DT_INST(2, vnd_soc_serial), current_speed)
 312  * @endcode
 313  *
 314  * Notice how `"vnd,soc-serial"` in the devicetree becomes `vnd_soc_serial`
 315  * (without quotes) in the DT_INST() arguments. (As usual, `current-speed`
 316  * in the devicetree becomes `current_speed` as well.)
 317  *
 318  * Nodes whose `compatible` property has multiple values are assigned
 319  * independent instance numbers for each compatible.
 320  *
 321  * @param inst instance number for compatible @p compat
 322  * @param compat lowercase-and-underscores compatible, without quotes
 323  * @return node identifier for the node with that instance number and
 324  *         compatible

From Zephyr 3.2.0 `zephyr/devicetree/spi.h`:

202  *     spi1: spi@... {
203  *             compatible = "vnd,spi";
204  *             cs-gpios = <&gpio1 10 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>,
205  *                        <&gpio2 20 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
206  *
207  *             a: spi-dev-a@0 {
208  *                     reg = <0>;
209  *             };
210  *
211  *             b: spi-dev-b@1 {
212  *                     reg = <1>;
213  *             };
214  *     };
215  *
216  * Example usage:
217  *
218  *     DT_SPI_DEV_CS_GPIOS_PIN(DT_NODELABEL(a)) // 10
219  *     DT_SPI_DEV_CS_GPIOS_PIN(DT_NODELABEL(b)) // 20

^ HAL level driver code

This section intended for findings about Hardware Abstraction Layer device driver code, normally provided by MCU or part manufacturer engineering teams. A starting search point is NXP's GPIO controller HAL code base:

 zephyr/drivers/gpio$ vi gpio_mcux_lpc.c

2022-12-11 Sunday

In some SPI debugging efforts on a board bring-up task, we're also interested to review NXP's HAL level SPI driver sources. Excerpts from a successful build, which appear to identify by name the NXP SPI source file of interest:

[77/184] Building C object zephyr/drivers/spi/CMa    keFiles/drivers__spi.dir/spi_mcux_flexcomm.c.obj^[[K^M
[78/184] Linking C static library zephyr/soc/arm/common/cortex_m/libsoc__arm__common__cortex_m.a

Source file `spi_mcux_flexcomm.c` is found in Zephyr 3.2.0's source tree path `zephyr/drivers/spi/spi_mcux_flexcomm.c`.


^ Supporting and Tangential Topics

Following sections hold notes and links to topics, which are themselves supporting but not specifically RTOS driver in their content:


^ Sensors to seek for Zephyr demo exercising

Keywords: sensor interrupts : sensor triggers : Zephyr triggers : sensor interrupt support

[ ] MCP9808 I2C based temperature sensor, datasheet, long lead times at Mouser
