Functions (API)
Some of the functions in
the WiringPi library are designed to mimic
those in the Arduino Wiring system. There are relatively easy to use and should
present no problems for anyone used to the Arduino system, or C programming
in-general.
The main difference is that unlike the Arduino system, the main loop of the
program is not provided for you – you need to write it yourself. This is often
desirable in a Linux system anyway as it can give you access to command-line
arguments and so on. See the examples page
for some simple examples and a Makefile to use.
Before using the WiringPi library, you
need to include its header file:
#include <wiringPi.h>
You may also need to add
-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib -lwiringPi
to the compile line of your program depending on the environment you are
using. The important one is -lwiringPi
Setup Functions
There are three ways to
initialise wiringPi.
- int wiringPiSetup (void) ;
- int wiringPiSetupGpio (void) ;
- int wiringPiSetupSys (void) ;
One of the setup functions must be called
at the start of your program. If it returns -1 then
the initialisation of the GPIO has failed, and you should consult the
global errno to see why.
The differences between the setup functions are as follows:
- wiringPiSetup(void) ;
This initialises the wiringPi system and assumes that the calling program is
going to be using the wiringPi pin numbering
scheme. This is a simplified numbering scheme which provides a mapping from
virtual pin numbers 0 through 16 to the real underlying Broadcom GPIO pin
numbers. See the pins page for a table which maps
the wiringPi pin number to the Broadcom GPIO
pin number to the physical location on the edge connector.
This function needs to be called with root privileges.
- wiringPiSetupGpio(void) ;
This is identical to above, however it allows the calling programs to use the
Broadcom GPIO pin numbers directly with no re-mapping.
As above, this function need to be called with root priveledges
- wiringPiSetupSys(void)
This initialises the wiringPi system but uses the /sys/class/gpio interface
rather than accessing the hardware directly. This can be called as a non-root
user provided the GPIO pins have been exported before-hand using
the gpio program. Pin number in this mode is
the native Broadcom GPIO numbers.
Note: In this mode you can only use the pins which have been
exported via the /sys/class/gpio interface. You must export these pins before
you call your program. You can do this in a separate shell-script, or by using
the system() function from inside your program.
Also note that some functions (noted below) have no effect when using this
mode as they’re not currently possible to action unless called with root
privileges.
General wiring functions
- void pinMode (int pin, int mode) ;
This sets the mode of a pin to
either INPUT, OUTPUT,
or PWM_OUTPUT. Note that
onlywiringPi pin 1 (BCM_GPIO 18) supports PWM
output. The pin number is the number obtained from the pins table.
This function has no effect when in Sys mode.
- void digitalWrite (int pin, int value) ;
Writes the
value HIGH or LOW (1 or 0)
to the given pin which must have been previously set as an output.
- void digitalWriteByte (int value) ;
This writes the 8-bit byte supplied to the 8 GPIO pins. It’s the fastest way
to set all 8 bits at once to a particular value, although it still takes twi
write operations to the GPIO hardware.
- void pwmWrite (int pin, int value) ;
Writes the value to the PWM register for the given pin. The value must be
between 0 and 1024. (Again, note that only pin 1 (BCM_GPIO 18) supports PWM)
This function has no effect when in Sys mode (see above)
- int digitalRead (int pin) ;
This function returns the value read at the given pin. It will
be HIGH or LOW (1 or 0)
depending on the logic level at the pin.
- void pullUpDnControl (int pin, int pud) ;
This sets the pull-up or pull-down resistor mode on the given pin, which
should be set as an input. Unlike the Arduino, the BCM2835 has both pull-up an
down internal resistors. The parameter pud should
be; PUD_OFF, (no pull
up/down), PUD_DOWN (pull to ground)
orPUD_UP (pull to 3.3v)
This function has no effect when in Sys mode. If you need to activate a
pull-up/pull-down, then you can do it with
the gpio program in a script before you
start your program.
PWM Control
PWM can not be controlled when running in Sys mode.
- pwmSetMode (int mode) ;
The PWM generator can run in 2 modes – “balanced” and “mark:space”. The
mark:space mode is traditional, however the default mode in the Pi is
“balanced”. You can switch modes by supplying the
parameter: PWM_MODE_BAL or PWM_MODE_MS.
- pwmSetRange (unsigned int range) ;
This sets the range register in the PWM generator. The default is 1024.
- pwmSetClock (int divisor) ;
This sets the divisor for the PWM clock.
To understand more about the PWM system, you’ll need to read the Broadcom ARM
peripherals manual.
Timing functions
- unsigned int millis (void)
This returns a number representing the number if milliseconds since your
program called one of
the wiringPiSetup functions. It returns an
unsigned 32-bit number which wraps after 49 days.
- void delay (unsigned int howLong)
This causes program execution to pause for at
least howLong milliseconds. Due
to the multi-tasking nature of Linux it could be longer. Note that the maximum
delay is an unsigned 32-bit integer or approximately 49 days.
- void delayMicroseconds (unsigned int howLong)
This causes program execution to pause for at
least howLong microseconds. Due
to the multi-tasking nature of Linux it could be longer. Note that the maximum
delay is an unsigned 32-bit integer microseconds or approximately 71
minutes.
Program/Thread Priority
- int piHiPri (int priority) ;
This attempts to shift your program (or thread in a multi-threaded program)
to a higher priority and enables a real-time scheduling.
The priority parameter should be from 0 (the default)
to 99 (the maximum). This won’t make your program go any faster, but it will
give it a bigger slice of time when other programs are running. The priority
parameter works relative to others – so you can make one program priority 1 and
another priority 2 and it will have the same effect as setting one to 10 and the
other to 90 (as long as no other programs are running with elevated
priorities)
The return value is 0 for success and -1 for error. If an error is returned,
the program should then consult the errno global variable, as
per the usual conventions.
Note: Only programs running as root can change their
priority. If called from a non-root program then nothing happens.
Interrupts
With a newer kernel patched with the GPIO interrupt handling code, (ie. any
kernel after about June 2012), you can now wait for an interrupt in your
program. This frees up the processor to do other tasks while you’re waiting for
that interrupt. The GPIO can be set to interrupt on a rising, falling or both
edges of the incoming signal.
Note: Jan 2013: The waitForInterrupt() function is
deprecated – you should use the newer and easier to use wiringPiISR() function
below.
- int waitForInterrupt (int pin, int timeOut) ;
When called, it will wait for an interrupt event to happen on that pin and
your program will be stalled. The timeOut parameter
is given in milliseconds, or can be -1 which means to wait forever.
The return value is -1 if an error occurred
(and errno will be set appropriately), 0 if it timed out, or
1 on a successful interrupt event.
Before you call waitForInterrupt, you must first initialise the GPIO pin and
at present the only way to do this is to use the gpio program, either in a
script, or using the system() call from inside your program.
e.g. We want to wait for a falling-edge interrupt on GPIO pin 0, so to setup
the hardware, we need to run:
gpio edge 0 falling
before running the program.
- int wiringPiISR (int pin, int edgeType, void
(*function)(void)) ;
This function registers a function to received interrupts on the specified
pin. The edgeType parameter is
either INT_EDGE_FALLING, INT_EDGE_RISING, INT_EDGE_BOTH orINT_EDGE_SETUP.
If it is INT_EDGE_SETUP then no initialisation of the
pin will happen – it’s assumed that you have already setup the pin elsewhere
(e.g. with the gpio program), but if you
specify one of the other types, then the pin will be exported and initialised as
specified. This is accomplished via a suitable call to
the gpio utility program, so it need to be
available.
The pin number is supplied in the current mode – native wiringPi, BCM_GPIO or
Sys modes.
This function will work in any mode, and does not need root privileges to
work.
The function will be called when the interrupt triggers. When it is
triggered, it’s cleared in the dispatcher before calling your function, so if a
subsequent interrupt fires before you finish your handler, then it won’t be
missed. (However it can only track one more interrupt, if more than one
interrupt fires while one is being handled then they will be ignored)
This function is run at a high priority (if the program is run using sudo, or
as root) and executes concurrently with the main program. It has full access to
all the global variables, open file handles and so on.
See the isr.c example program for more details on how to
use this feature.
Concurrent Processing (multi-threading)
wiringPi has a simplified interface to the
Linux implementation of Posix threads, as well as a (simplified) mechanisms to
access mutex’s (Mutual exclusions)
Using these functions you can create a new process (a function inside your
main program) which runs concurrently with your main program and using the mutex
mechanisms, safely pass variables between them.
- int piThreadCreate (name) ;
This function creates a thread which is another function in your program
previously declared using the PI_THREAD declaration.
This function is then run concurrently with your main program. An example may be
to have this function wait for an interrupt while your program carries on doing
other tasks. The thread can indicate an event, or action by using global
variables to communicate back to the main program, or other threads.
Thread functions are declared as follows:
PI_THREAD (myThread)
{
.. code here to run concurrently with
the main program, probably in an
infinite loop
}
and would be started in the main program with:
x = piThreadCreate (myThread) ;
if (x != 0)
printf ("it didn‘t start\n")
This is really nothing more than a simplified interface to the Posix threads
mechanism that Linux supports. See the manual pages on Posix threads (man
pthread) if you need more control over them.
- piLock (int keyNum) ;
- piUnlock (int keyNum) ;
These allow you to synchronise variable updates from your main program to any
threads running in your program. keyNum is a number from 0 to 3 and represents a
“key”. When another process tries to lock the same key, it will be stalled until
the first process has unlocked the same key.
You may need to use these functions to ensure that you get valid data when
exchanging data between your main program and a thread – otherwise it’s possible
that the thread could wake-up halfway during your data copy and change the data
– so the data you end up copying is incomplete, or invalid. See the wfi.c
program in the examples directory for an example.
Misc. Functions
- piBoardRev (void) ;
This returns the board revision of the Raspberry Pi. It will be either 1 or
2. Some of the BCM_GPIO pins changed number and function when moving from board
revision 1 to 2, so if you are using BCM_GPIO pin numbers, then you need to be
aware of the differences.
- wpiPinToGpio (int wPiPin) ;
This returns the BCM_GPIO pin number of the supplied wiringPi pin. It takes
the board revision into account.
- setPadDrive (int group, int value) ;
This sets the “strength” of the pad drivers for a particular group of pins.
There are 3 groups of pins and the drive strength is from 0 to 7. Do not use
this unless you know what you are doing.
