I'm using image Armbian_23.8.3_Orangepizero2_bookworm_current_6.1.53

I'm building a DTS overlay for a SPI Touchscreen and every pin I try to use is showing this error:
 

[    1.441808] sun50i-h616-pinctrl 300b000.pinctrl: pin PC11 already requested by 5011000.spi; cannot claim for 300b000.pinctrl:75

[    1.441817] sun50i-h616-pinctrl 300b000.pinctrl: pin-75 (300b000.pinctrl:75) status -22

[    1.441829] sun6i-spi 5011000.spi: cannot register SPI master

 

I'm trying to configure my touchscreen dts to use the SPI1.0 & SPI1.1.  However, the pins exposed on the headers are all allocated for device use under 300b000.pinctrl.

How do you allocate header pins for another use?

 

I need 5 pins + SPI1 for the touchscreen to work.

You have just set up this touchscreen display for another device. This is a fact.

See the schematic diagram for this new device.

Perhaps SPI1 is already divorced on the board and connected to the memory chip?

Use my suggestions and do it by analogy. I'm sure you can handle it.

Yeah, I think you are right.  I got the device working on an Orange PI PC, but I wanted a lower cost board with wifi.  I thought I could use the same technique to get the display working on my Orange PI Zero 2, but I couldn't find any pins I could use to drive the display.  The device tree allocated all the exposed pins for other uses.  Has anyone had luck getting a display like this one working on an Orange PI Zero W2 or similar hardware?

@Peter GregoryAre you sure you are using the right pins? Based on the schematics, SPI1 should be PH5-PH9

pinctrl-names = "default", "default";

Also I am not sure about this. Can you try removing one of the default?

@Gunjan Gupta You are, as always, the very courtesy!

Provided a link to the documentation.
From which follows:

26 pins | pin name | function  |
-------------------------------|
  3     |    PH5   | spi1-cs0 ?|
 19     |    PH7   | spi1-mosi |
 21     |    PH8   | spi1-miso |
 23     |    PH6   | spi1-clk  |
 24     |    PH9   | spi1-cs0 ?|
 26     |    PC10  | spi1-cs1  |
-------------------------------

But this scheme says that the pins are divorced somewhere else. GPIO ASSIGNMENT (4)

 

The first thing that came to my mind was to take a soldering iron in my hands and .....

 

 

Alternatively, you can use a driver to emulate SPI on free pins (spi-gpio), if this driver is available in the kernel.

This is a slow driver. But complete freedom.

 

Can you show an example of spi-gpio being used for an ads7846 touch screen?
