Framebuffer

The frame buffer device provides an abstraction for the graphics hardware. It represents the frame buffer of some video hardware and allows application software to access the graphics hardware through a well-defined interface, so the software doesn't need to know anything about the low-level (hardware register) stuff.

The device is accessed through special device nodes, usually located in the /dev directory, i.e. /dev/fb*.

Get Display Mode

Refer to link as below:

GPIO

Configuration/Test

Configuration

Export GPIO then you can use control GPIO from userr space through sysfs

GPIO 27 is taken as an example:

Export GPIO 27

# echo 27 > /sys/class/gpio/export

Set GPIO direction to in/out

# echo "in" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio27/direction

Set GPIO value 0/1 if GPIO pin define is output

#  echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio27/value

Directly force a GPIO to output and set its initial value(high=1 low=0)

# echo high > /sys/class/gpio/gpio27/direction

Used as IRQ signal

Note:You have to configure GPIO to input

#  echo "rising" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio27/edge

• rising: Trigger on rising edge
• falling: Trigger on falling edge
• both: Trigger on both edges
• none: Disable interrupt on both edges

Unexport GPIO 27

# echo 27 /sys/class/gpio/unexport

Test

GPIO 27 and GPIO 29 are taken as an example:

• Connect GPIO 27 and GPIO 29
• Export GPIO 27 and GPIO 29

# echo 27 /sys/class/gpio/export
# echo 29 /sys/class/gpio/export

• Set GPIO 27 to output

# echo "out" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio27/direction

• Set GPIO 29 to input

# echo "in" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio29/direction

• Change GPIO 27 to 1 and read GPIO 29 value

# echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio27/value
# cat /sys/class/gpio/gpio29/value
1

• Change GPIO 27 to 0 and read GPIO 29 value

# echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio27/value
# cat /sys/class/gpio/gpio29/value
0

IR

To decode the infrared signals and provide an uniform interface

lircd -d /dev/lirc0

used parameters:

-d --device=device    read from given device
-u --uinput           generate Linux input events

Executes commands on an IR signal decoded by lircd,

irexec -d /devlirc0

Note: if show these message after running lircd

lircd: can't open or create /var/run/lirc/lircd.pid
lircd: No such file or directory

It has to add the "/var/run/lirc" folder

mkdir /var/run/lirc

How to debug:

1. To check that signals are decoded correctly

mode2 -d /dev/lirc0

It repeats to show "space" and "pulse" while clicking a control button

space 8451531
pulse 476

2. To check input events.

First, It must add the parameter,"-u", in lircd command

lircd -d /dev/lirc0 -u

It will register at inputX,

input: lircd as /devices/virtual/input/input1 

Run evtest to check events

evtest -d /dev/input/event1

One Wire

Example

RTC

Test

Confirm Which RTC

rtc-s35390a is taken as an example:

# dmesg| grep rtc0
[    1.644600] rtc-s35390a 0-0030: rtc core: registered rtc-s35390a as rtc0

rtc-s35390a is rtc0

Set system time to current, then write to RTC

# date 021710452016 && hwclock -w && date
Wed Feb 17 10:45:00 UTC 2016
Wed Feb 17 10:45:00 UTC 2016

Set one incorrect time, then read time from RTC to verify

# date 010100002000 && hwclock -r && date
Sat Jan  1 00:00:00 UTC 2000
Wed Feb 17 10:45:32 2016  0.000000 seconds
Sat Jan  1 00:00:00 UTC 2000

Restore the RTC time to system time

# hwclock -s && date
Wed Feb 17 10:46:26 UTC 2016

Watchdog

Instroduction

Introduction:

A Watchdog Timer (WDT) is a hardware circuit that can reset the computer system in case of a software fault.

Watchdog API

You can refer to the path as below in kernel source code to write a simple program to test watchdog

Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-api.txt

Example

i.MX series

NXP has written a tool to test watchdog in /unit_tests/

1.Executing wdt_driver_test.out

#/unit_tests/wdt_driver_test.out
Usage: wdt_driver_test <timeout> <sleep> <test>
timeout: value in seconds to cause wdt timeout/reset
sleep: value in seconds to service the wdt
test: 0 - Service wdt with ioctl(), 1 - with write()

2.Please try below command to set timeout as 10 seconds, system will reboot after then.

#/unit_tests/wdt_driver_test.out 10 5 0
