@이광철 , you need to disable uart:
/* M0104 - J10 JST connector */ &qupv3_se14_2uart { status = "disabled"; }; -
First of all thank you for your advice.

&qupv3_se14_spi {

&qupv3_se14_2uart {
status = "disabled";
};Modified as above.
After building the kernel, the contents of /dev are as follows.

@이광철 , just to double check.. after building the kernel, did you install it to voxl2 mini?
If all else fails, you can test (without overwriting) the kernel from SDK 1.1.1 like this :

Yes

spidev14.0 still does not exist.
There is something strange.
Why voxl-suite: 1.1.2?
voxl-suite: 1.1.1 Isn't that correct? -
@이광철 , if you update just the kernel (or boot using a temporary one), the rest of the file system is unaffected, so voxl suite will remain the same. You can look at the kernel build dates to see the difference (it is also printed when you start adb shell).
I am not sure why spi is not showing up, will need to ask @admin
-
Maybe the change spi ->uart was actually made before sdk 1.1.1. We will need to double check that.
-
I confirmed that kernel from SDK 1.1.1 does not have the spi mapped. So i tried the kernel from SDK 1.0.0 and it does. In this case my board has SDK 1.1.1 installed, but i am booting into kernel from SDK 1.0.0.

There is no response to the qrb5165io-spi-test -d 14 command.
is this right?
Is spidev14.0 not working? -
@이광철 , do you have anything connected to spidev14.0 ? You need a device connected to the spi port.
If you look at the source code for this test app, it simply tries to ping a specific IMU device, which happens to be installed on board on SPI3 (ICM42688 IMU) : https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/core-libs/libqrb5165-io/-/blob/master/apps/examples/qrb5165io-spi-test.c
So, you should connect your desired device to J10 and modify the example to communicate with your device.
Also, based on this documentation, https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-mini-connectors/#j10-pin-out-spi-mode-gpio_67--low-kernel-rebuild-required-to-use, you need to set the GPIO before using:
voxl-gpio -w 67 1I hope that helps
-
Another quick tip for testing SPI stuff. I found this useful:
https://github.com/rm-hull/spidev-test/blob/master/spidev_test.c
You can download this file to VOXL2, build it using
gcc -O2 spidev_test.c -o spidev_testand then you can actually query the IMU on spi 3:
voxl2-mini:~$ ./spidev_test -D /dev/spidev3.0 -p "\x76\x00\xF5\x00" spi mode: 0x0 bits per word: 8 max speed: 500000 Hz (500 KHz) RX | 00 00 00 47 ...and from here we know that 0x47 is actually the value WHOAMI register of ICM42688 IMU
The data i am sending to the device is 4 bytes used to query the imu, as done here . the value
0xF5 = 0x75 | 0x80which tells the IMU to send back the value of register0x75 -
I will connect my spi device and let you know the results after testing.
Thanks for your help. -
Hi.
I tested it by connecting my spi device to j10.
This spi device is working normally in voxl2.
My program for testing also operates normally with this spi device in voxl2.
However, when I test the spi device and test program on voxl mini, there is no response to the voxl_spi_write function.Also, the test below is the same as before.
voxl2-mini:/dev$ qrb5165io-spi-test -d 14
There is no response to the qrb5165io-spi-test -d 14 command.I need your help and thanks in advance.
-
I tested according to your advice.
This is the result of testing on my mini.voxl2-mini:~$ cd /usr/bin

@이광철 ,
Please note that
qrb5165io-spi-test -d 14is a test app that just tries to detect a specific IMU on the SPI port. If the specific IMU is not connected, the test will not be successful.Are you able to read any data from your SPI sensor (using
spidev_test -D /dev/spidev14.0 ...? Can you share what your sensor is? You should look in the documentation of your sensor and it will tell you how to communicate with it. SPI protocol for reading / writing is specific to the device.Also, don't forget about the gpio setting that needs to be made before using SPI 14 (
voxl-gpio -w 67 1). this needs to be run after each reboot.Alex

Yes I know.My spi device and test program works fine on volx2's J10.
Please refer to j10 in the url below.
https://docs.px4.io/main/en/flight_controller/modalai_voxl_2.html -
@이광철 , do you still have any issue? Does spidev_test work with spi 14?
-
I tested it by connecting my spi device to j10.
This spi device is working normally in voxl2.
My program for testing also operates normally with this spi device in voxl2.voxl_spi_init(SPI_BUS, SPI_MODE_0, VOXL_SPI_MAX_SPEED) is OK
but, there is no response to the voxl_spi_write function. -
@이광철 , can you confirm that you are setting gpio 67 on voxl2 mini before testing spi 14?
