Unable to use config-pin on beagleboneAI

[Zeki411]

Hello !
I cant use config-pin on beaglebone AI
When I use "config-pin P8.07 gpio" it shows the failure:
"P8_07 pinmux file not found!
Pin has no cape: P8_07"

Here is my version

@Zeki411 config-pin will "NEVER" be supported on the AM5x based BeagleBone AI.

You will have to use u-boot overlays..

now i want to enable spi at P9.17,P9.18,P9.21,P9.22 but i dont know how to do it
can you help me pls ?

[Zeki411]

i try to use u-boot overlays by adding these following line in uEnv.txt but it doesnt work:

###U-Boot Overlays###

cmdline=coherent_pool=1M net.ifnames=0 quiet cape_universal=enable
uboot_overlay_addr4=/lib/firmware/BB-SPIDEV0-00A0.dtbo
uboot_overlay_addr5=/lib/firmware/BB-SPIDEV1-00A0.dtbo

[RobertCNelson]

@Zeki411 correct, those won't work.. All the "BB-" and "PB-" overlays are am335x based and will not work on the AM5x. There are a few "BBAI_*" example overlays.

But I haven't had any free personal time over this last few months to add more..

So, patches welcome..

I know when you write a python script using adafruit_bbio.spi as the import, it will auto load SPIDEV0 or SPIDEV1 into an available cape slot based on your code i.e. spi(0,0).
Wouldn't it do this for this board? Auto load the correct cape?.... assuming there was one.

[RobertCNelson]

@willisjr40 that doesn't support the BBAI yet..
