Problem setting up an ISR for a K60 PORT

Problem setting up an ISR for a K60 PORT

[Michael Jones]

I am struggling to setup an ISR/DSR for a PORT on the K60. My goal is to get an ISR/DSR when Pin 19 of PORTA transitions from high to low. This is pin PTA19 of the device.

My non-working code and complete code below.

What the code tries to do is setup PORTA PIN19 as input. Then take the PCR register and set the interrupt to work off a falling edge. 

Then create the ISR/DSR.

When I toggle the pin, nothing happens. 

FYI the hardware works with MQX, so I know the hardware is ok. I use it the same way under MQX where I get an ISR from a negative edge. And I have put a scope on it to make sure there is an edge. So I am quite sure the problem is the code.

This code was generated by trying to understand the Kinetis code, but things were not clear to me. Some macros use __pin to mean different things. So this is my best guess.

Does anyone know how to do this?

PORT SETUP CODE
================

    cyghwr_hal_kinetis_port_t *port_p;

	CYGHWR_HAL_KINETIS_GPIO_PIN_DDR_IN(ALERT_PORT, ALERT_PIN);

    // Get address for PORTA
    port_p = Ports[0];

    // 0xA means interrupt on falling edge.
    // Read modify write PCR
    port_p->pcr[ALERT_PIN] =
    		(port_p->pcr[ALERT_PIN] & 0xFFF0FFFF) |
			(0xA << 16);

    // Create an ISR/DSR for PORTA.
    // Assuming the priority is what the DSR will run at.
    // No data passed.
	cyg_interrupt_create(
			CYGNUM_HAL_INTERRUPT_PORTA, // Vector
			3, 							// Priority
			(cyg_addrword_t)0, 			// Data
			alert_isr, 					// ISR
			alert_dsr, 					// DSR
			&alert_handle,		 		// Handle

Hi Michael,

first of all, I think your message should be sent to ecos-discuss 
instead (so I put it in cc).

I put some comments below - it is a long time ago I coded ISR/DSR, so I 
just looked to some working code of ours to compare.

After our 'interrupt_create', we also have those calls (we use IRQ2 
instead of your PORTA):
   cyg_interrupt_attach(t_intrhandle);
   cyg_interrupt_configure(CYGNUM_HAL_INTERRUPT_IRQ2, TLV_FALSE, TLV_FALSE);
   cyg_interrupt_acknowledge(CYGNUM_HAL_INTERRUPT_IRQ2);
   cyg_interrupt_unmask(CYGNUM_HAL_INTERRUPT_IRQ2);

Why do you call 'cyg_thread_suspend...' ? I do not see code that creates 
a thread. And when I create a thread, I do cyg_thread_create(...); 
cyg_thread_resume(..);.

Why do you need a thread when your code is run by interrupts?

No need for:
   cyg_interrupt_mask(CYGNUM_HAL_INTERRUPT_IRQ2);
   cyg_interrupt_acknowledge(CYGNUM_HAL_INTERRUPT_IRQ2);
?

I guess you still need to add code here.
No need for this at the end:
   cyg_interrupt_unmask(CYGNUM_HAL_INTERRUPT_IRQ2);
?

I hope this helps. Kind regards,

I am creating all my threads from cyg_user_start. Each "task" (thread) has its own file and interface (psuedo OO). The overall app has multiple threads, one of them handling telemetry, and a higher priority one handling ALERTB problems using a PMBus (I2C). Once the interrupt works and the DSR is called, the DSR code will do an ARA (get addresses vis I2C), get STATUS_WORD for all address that ALERTed, and then send events so that the alert thread can respond by interacting over the PMBus. I just suspended the thread until I get the ISR to work, then I will add then event and processing code. 

I could do all the work in the DSR as long as I can call I2C from the DSR. However, I am porting an application from MQX and maintaining its structure, and in MQX I don't have a DSR, so in that version the ARA and read of STATUS_WORD is all in the task code.

I tried making some I2C calls from a DSR by using a timer, and the code locked up somewhere. I did not have time to track down the problem. It could have gotten in trouble on a mutex, in the driver, etc. So I may have to put all the code in the task/thread anyway until I have a better understanding of what code can execute in the DSR. I just have to dig through the eCos Ref Manual.

Seeing your code, brought something to mind. I had assumed that the interrupt was enabled in the Kinetis HAL and all I had to do was configure the port. Perhaps that is not the case. I'll try to use your example and see what happens.

Thanks
