when I increased or decreased PIO component width from the existing qsys file, its not working.

I need to control 7 gpio pins for output and 8 gpio pins for bidirectional. when I tried to change the pre-existing qsys file from my_first_hps-fpga, it did not work.

I only tried to change the PIO width and added another PIO component on that, there was no error, and compilation was fine, but when I sent the embedded C program on board and tried to run it did not work. I put printf statement after every operation, I found out dev\mem opened only, after that program do not work.

I am not able to find out what the problem is, I tried everything, and I feel I will be stuck here forever, please help me with this, at this point it is frustrating.

    Show your system design. Show the PIO parameter settings. Show the connections to the HPS. Which target device?

    Really need to see more of what you've done here.

    Hi,


    I really apologies for the delay response. I am contacting the expert for the HPS-related issue. This is my findings:


    We recommend you should confirm that PIO works on U-Boot.

    U-Boot has useful commands such as’ md’ and ‘mw’ for debugging.


    For example, PIO assigned to 0xFF200100 on LW-H2F bridge.

    The following command shows a value of PIO. Value for md and mw command is always hexadecimal so that a prefixes such as 0x is not necessary.


    Example

    # md FF200100

    00000000

    # mw FF200100 12345678

    Lastly, before accessing the bridges, please enable the bridges using “bridge enable” command.


    Thank you for your understanding.

    Thank you for the reply. I have attached the qsys file, PIO LED setting, and HPS configuration along with the embedded C program too.

    Target device is De1-Soc.

    Hello,


    To get the right person to support you, may I know if this is related to HPS or FPGA GPIO?


    Regards,
