Hi, 

When Gerald Coley design the BBB, he planed to use the GPIO1_25 as an interrupt signal from the tda19988..

I wanted to know why the interrupt GPIO1_25 is not used for interrupt.

Micka,

It looks like the driver supports an interrupt:

Are you concerned this interrupt is necessary for some function missing in your system?

Is this something we can enable in the device tree?


We probably need to ask the original developer why the IRQ wasn't connected to the driver.
 

Micka,

Hi,

Thx for the answer, no I don't need it. It's just by curiosity.

This interrupt is to pass IR remote information to the processor over the HDMI from the TV. As the BBB is lacking a tuner, I am not sure how much value this feature has.

Well from those lines:

I thought that it was to help to read the edid data or about the plug/unplug:

566  * only 2 interrupts may occur: screen plug/unplug and EDID read

Not sure about unplug and plug in.
