Worked on the flipperdevices/u-boot repository to enhance GPIO driver compatibility with live device trees, focusing on the 74x164 GPIO controller. Updated the driver to use dev_read_* APIs, replacing flat-FDT parsing to ensure seamless property reads for both live and flat device trees. This change resolved historical binding issues and enabled full 32-GPIO exposure across a four-chip daisy chain on the stm32mp153d-ssonic board. The work involved C programming and embedded systems expertise, aligning code structure with established DM GPIO driver patterns and removing unused global data, which improved maintainability and consistency across device driver implementations.
April 2026 monthly summary for flipperdevices/u-boot focused on improving GPIO reliability and live-device-tree compatibility. Implemented a significant driver upgrade for the 74x164 GPIO controller to work seamlessly with both live and flat device trees, resolving historical binding gaps and enabling full 32-GPIO exposure across a four-chip daisy chain. The work validates on the stm32mp153d-ssonic board (CONFIG_OF_LIVE=y) and strengthens DM GPIO consistency across drivers.
