<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hello there,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I am having difficulties with some xilinx gpios and the xilinx-2.6-xlnx kernel. As far as I can tell the kernel is configured correctly for gpio.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I can see that the module_init function "xgpio_init" is called, and that bus_add_driver and driver_add_groups returns without error. But I cannot see that the probe function is called. /proc/misc doesnt list a driver for the gpios. I am not sure where to go next as there is no error printouts.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have seen other peoples consoles stating that the gpio is mapped to xx but this doesn't happen for me.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I am using the default bit file for the ml507 board, and have created device files </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">/dev/xgpio0 </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">/dev/xgpio1 etc with major 10 and minor 185 </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">However if I try to open these devices the open fails. </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I would rally appreciate it if someone could give me some pointers as to what to look for, or how a to go about debugging this.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Many thanks</FONT>
