Hi everyone,

 

I'm struggling to get gpio_keys working.

 

I'm trying to use the overlay, which I have attached below, but after reboot there is no event node listed in "/dev/input/". (There is only one node named mice.)

 

Inspecting dmesg, I found the following error messages:

[    1.529891] sun50i-h616-pinctrl 300b000.pinctrl: pin PC8 already requested by gpio-keys-user; cannot claim for 300b000.pinctrl:72
[    1.529917] gpio-keys gpio-keys-user: failed to get gpio: -22
[    1.529926] gpio-keys: probe of gpio-keys-user failed with error -22

 

Inspecting the dts file of my board (orange pi zero 2), I found that PC5,PC6 and PC8 are already listed as mmc2-pins, but mmc2 is disabled, so I don't think that this is the issue. However, I have no idea what else might be wrong.

 

Any help?
