Unable to toggle GPIO P0.0 or P0.1 with Zephyr

[tscribne]

Working with nrf52832_mdk and using basic GPIO functionality, I am unable to toggle the GPIO pins P0.0 or P0.1.   The code I am using is quite simple and I am able to toggle the LED's on a nrf52840_pca10056 when compiled in that environment.  When compiling on with nrf52932_mdk, I expect to see some activity on the pins P0.0 or P0.01 when I specify pin 0 or 1, however, there appears to be no activity.  My code is below:

nt 
gpio_set( 
    int pin, 
    bool set )
{
    int err;
    struct device *dev;

    dev = device_get_binding("GPIO_0");


    gpio_pin_configure( dev, pin, GPIO_OUTPUT_ACTIVE );


    if( verbose == true ){
        if ( set == true ) {
            printk("Set GPIO Pin %d - %d", pin,set);
        }else{
            printk("Clear GPIO Pin %d - %d", pin,set );
        }
    }

    err = gpio_pin_set(dev, pin, set);


    if ( verbose == true ) {
        if (err == 0) {
            printk("SUCCESS\n");
        }else{
            printk("FAILED\n");
        }                      
    }

    return( err );
}

Any clues as to why my pins are not toggles would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Any clues as to why my pins are not toggles would be greatly appreciated.

 It's most likely used for the 32.768 kHz crystal. See the pin assignments for the nRF52832 here.

Ah, you are correct, I was looking at the wrong schematic.  Anyhow, I'm experiencing the same behavior.  My pins are as follows: 

P0.06 - Wakeup

P0.07 - Enable

P0.08 - BUSY

P0.11 - RXD

P0.12 - TXD

I have normal activity on my RXD/TXD lines and I can communicate clearly with my serial connections, however, whenever I wish to toggle Wakeup, Enable or Busy with the above code I see not electrical activity on my pins (P0.06-07-08).

Could this be my configuration on my Device Tree for the nrf52832_mdk?

 Could be. Take a look at the zephyr.dts file in the build_folder/zephyr

Yes, I'm looking at my zephyr.dts file and it only includes pins for my UART 11 and 12.

Try building and running this program on your board:

gpio_test.zip

It should toggle pin 6,7 and 8 every second.
