Thanks for following up on this Martin.
I did notice the changes to interrupt handling and updated my drivers accordingly, including the initial ack...interrupts are working well in my 15.11 code.
The io mapping changes I was referring to were in Attached_io_mem_dataspace where sub page handling is apparently is now managed at the byte and not page level. After reading the notes I realized that all the device registers in my platform start on a 4K boundary and also end on one. So that idea went nowhere!
I put a 'scope on several of the pins outputting the PWM signal. To my surprise the pulses were present and their width did change correctly as the driver code altered the duty cycle values, identical to the behavior on 15.02. The compiler did change between 15.02 and 15.11 and this leads me to think I may have some poor code design in my pwm device driver causing a race condition during the set up of the pwm subsystem or the pwm channels...a timing change due to the different compiled code could expose such an issue. My current belief is that the ESC is being reset after set up or because of some wrong sequence during set up. The ESC's emit audible tones when they receive initial pulses after power on and there are differences between the tones emitted between the 15.02 version and 15.11.
I'm ok with sharing my code but I think the hardware is needed to really debug this issue. Every other piece of code in this scenario works as it did in 15.02 including gpio output to status leds and pwm inputs on gpio pins.
I'll keep you posted as I progress.

Hi Bob,

The scenario I run includes sdcard, gpio, gp timers, uarts, i2c, and PWM drivers and vfs is also in there. All of this, with my modified base-hw kernel, appears to be running as it does in 15.02 with the exception of the PWM driver. The log from the 15.11 implementation shows nothing exceptional (attached) and is practically identical to what is output on
While reading this, it came to my mind that somewhere around the beginning of the year, interrupt semantics have changed on base-hw. In the past, an IRQ session, once opened, directly started handling interrupts. Today, the handling, and therefore also the reception, of interrupts doesn't start until an initial 'Irq_session::irq_ack' call. I know, its a shot in the dark. But just to be sure you may check whether your drivers already send this initial ack.
15.02. Running my PWM driver in verbose mode shows that data received from sensors on the i2c bus and from a manual input controller is being correctly received, processed, and sent to the PWM driver. The PWM does some signal conditioning and writes updated duty cycle values to an IO register from which the SoC's pwm subsystem sends the modified pulse to an IO pin. That pin is attached to a motor ESC which provides the power to drive the motor. The motor never receives the pulse. So, presumably,
My first intention is, that this could also be a bad GPIO configuration. However, with the information I have this can only be a vague guess. Can you share your source code including the run script that you're using? Most comfortable would be an on-line git branch :)
there is an issue with IO mapping and the signal is not going to the correct register location. I notice in the 5.11 release notes that there have been changes in the area of memory mapped IO, so I'm starting to
Sorry, I'm afraid that I do not know which changes you mean. Could you please go in more detail?
explore that avenue. I have not touched the PWM driver code in more than a year so I doubt that the problem is there.
Cheers, Martin
