Hi Tim,

Let me know if you find the event manager docs lying around anywhere. I think I was able to work out a bit of it.

CSR_CAS_BUTTONS_EV_STATUS register is 1 when the button is being pressed and goes back to 0 on release.

CSR_CAS_BUTTONS_EV_PENDING register starts off at 1 when the board is started. Writing 1 to any bit sets it back to 0. If the button is pressed it goes back to 1 and stays at one till it's written to again. I'm not sure if it should be 1 on boot, I would expect it to be 0 till the button is pressed for the first time.

I can't work out what CSR_CAS_BUTTONS_EV_ENABLE is for. I can read and write to it and just keeps whatever value I give it. But the other registers function the same no matter what value is in this one. I'm thinking maybe it's for enabling interrupts? Not sure how I could test that though.

Cheers,
Karl

You are correct about pretty much everything. There is actually quite a lot of documentation at https://github.com/m-labs/misoc/blob/master/misoc/interconnect/csr_eventmanager.py

The CSR_CAS_BUTTONS_EV_ENABLE is for which events will trigger the IRQ. To test you are going to need to register an IRQ handler and then enable interrupts. 

I don't know if anyone has tested interrupts in MicroPython on FPGAs yet.
