# Pico Host Adapter Dio

This project aims to turn the Raspberry Pi Pico into an USB Host Adapter to control each Digital Input/Output.

![](./schema.png)

## Install firmware on your Pico

[SEE Firmware Documentation](firmware/README.md)

## USB Commands

Commands on USB are based on:

- SLIP [Serial Line Internet Protocol](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Line_Internet_Protocol)
- Protobuf [From Google](https://protobuf.dev/)

The USB class used is CDC, it means that you can open it as a serial port.

You must then prepare a Protobuf message with the given specification:

```
firmware\src\api_dio.proto
```

Finally encode the message with SLIP then send it on the serial port.

## Commands examples

For example to set the pin 2 to OUTPUT (by default pins are in INPUT)

```protobuf
message PicohaDioRequest {
RequestType type = 1; => SET_PIN_DIRECTION OUTPUT
uint32 pin_num = 2; 2
PinValue value = 3; => OUTPUT
}
```

The board should respond with

```protobuf
message PicohaDioAnswer {
AnswerType type = 1; => SUCCESS
optional PinValue value = 2;
optional string error_message = 3;
}
```

# Panduza Device PicoHa DIO

## Flash your pico

First install Rust in your computer (https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install)

```sh
rustup target install thumbv6m-none-eabi
cargo install flip-link
# If you want to use elf2uf2-rs instead, do...
cargo install --locked elf2uf2-rs
```

```sh
cargo run --release
```

<!-- Requirements -->
<details open="open">
<summary><h2 style="display: inline-block" id="requirements">Requirements</h2></summary>

- The standard Rust tooling (cargo, rustup) which you can install from https://rustup.rs/

- Toolchain support for the cortex-m0+ processors in the rp2040 (thumbv6m-none-eabi)

- flip-link - this allows you to detect stack-overflows on the first core, which is the only supported target for now.

- (by default) A [`probe-rs` installation](https://probe.rs/docs/getting-started/installation/)

- A [`probe-rs` compatible](https://probe.rs/docs/getting-started/probe-setup/) probe

You can use a second
[Pico as a CMSIS-DAP debug probe](debug_probes.md#raspberry-pi-pico). Details
on other supported debug probes can be found in
[debug_probes.md](debug_probes.md)

</details>

<!-- Installation of development dependencies -->
<details open="open">
<summary><h2 style="display: inline-block" id="installation-of-development-dependencies">Installation of development dependencies</h2></summary>

```sh
rustup target install thumbv6m-none-eabi
cargo install flip-link
# Installs the probe-rs tools, including probe-rs run, our recommended default runner
cargo install --locked probe-rs-tools
# If you want to use elf2uf2-rs instead, do...
cargo install --locked elf2uf2-rs
```
If you get the error ``binary `cargo-embed` already exists`` during installation of probe-rs, run `cargo uninstall cargo-embed` to uninstall your older version of cargo-embed before trying again.

</details>
- Reset the board and keep it in reset
- then press the 'boot' button
- release the reset


<!-- Running -->
<details open="open">
<summary><h2 style="display: inline-block" id="running">Running</h2></summary>

For a debug build
```sh
cargo run
```
For a release build
```sh
# To build and flash the pico
cd pza-dev-picoha-dio/firmware
cargo run --release
```

If you do not specify a DEFMT_LOG level, it will be set to `debug`.
That means `println!("")`, `info!("")` and `debug!("")` statements will be printed.
If you wish to override this, you can change it in `.cargo/config.toml`
```toml
[env]
DEFMT_LOG = "off"
```
You can also set this inline (on Linux/MacOS)
```sh
DEFMT_LOG=trace cargo run
```

or set the _environment variable_ so that it applies to every `cargo run` call that follows:
#### Linux/MacOS/unix
```sh
export DEFMT_LOG=trace
```

Setting the DEFMT_LOG level for the current session
for bash
```sh
export DEFMT_LOG=trace
```

#### Windows
Windows users can only override DEFMT_LOG through `config.toml`
or by setting the environment variable as a separate step before calling `cargo run`
- cmd
```cmd
set DEFMT_LOG=trace
```
- powershell
```ps1
$Env:DEFMT_LOG = trace
```

```cmd
cargo run
```

<!-- ALTERNATIVE RUNNERS -->
<details open="open">
<summary><h2 style="display: inline-block" id="alternative-runners">Alternative runners</h2></summary>

If you don't have a debug probe or if you want to do interactive debugging you can set up an alternative runner for cargo.

Some of the options for your `runner` are listed below:

* **`cargo embed`**
This is basically a more configurable version of `probe-rs run`, our default runner.
See [the `cargo-embed` tool docs page](https://probe.rs/docs/tools/cargo-embed/) for
more information.

*Step 1* - Install `cargo-embed`. This is part of the [`probe-rs`](https://crates.io/crates/probe-rs) tools:

```console
$ cargo install --locked probe-rs-tools
```

*Step 2* - Update settings in [Embed.toml](./Embed.toml)
- The defaults are to flash, reset, and start a defmt logging session
You can find all the settings and their meanings [in the probe-rs repo](https://github.com/probe-rs/probe-rs/blob/c435072d0f101ade6fc3fde4a7899b8b5ef69195/probe-rs-tools/src/bin/probe-rs/cmd/cargo_embed/config/default.toml)

*Step 3* - Use the command `cargo embed`, which will compile the code, flash the device
and start running the configuration specified in Embed.toml

```console
$ cargo embed --release
```

* **probe-rs-debugger**
*Step 1* - Install Visual Studio Code from https://code.visualstudio.com/

*Step 2* - Install `probe-rs`
```console
$ cargo install --locked probe-rs-tools
```

*Step 3* - Open this project in VSCode

*Step 4* - Install `debugger for probe-rs` via the VSCode extensions menu (View > Extensions)

*Step 5* - Launch a debug session by choosing `Run`>`Start Debugging` (or press F5)

* **Loading a UF2 over USB**
*Step 1* - Install [`elf2uf2-rs`](https://github.com/JoNil/elf2uf2-rs):

```console
$ cargo install elf2uf2-rs --locked
```

*Step 2* - Modify `.cargo/config` to change the default runner

```toml
[target.`cfg(all(target-arch = "arm", target_os = "none"))`]
runner = "elf2uf2-rs -d"
```

The all-Arm wildcard `'cfg(all(target_arch = "arm", target_os = "none"))'` is used
by default in the template files, but may also be replaced by
`thumbv6m-none-eabi`.

*Step 3* - Boot your RP2040 into "USB Bootloader mode", typically by rebooting
whilst holding some kind of "Boot Select" button. On Linux, you will also need
to 'mount' the device, like you would a USB Thumb Drive.

*Step 4* - Use `cargo run`, which will compile the code and start the
specified 'runner'. As the 'runner' is the `elf2uf2-rs` tool, it will build a UF2
file and copy it to your RP2040.

```console
$ cargo run --release
```

* **Loading with picotool**
As ELF files produced by compiling Rust code are completely compatible with ELF
files produced by compiling C or C++ code, you can also use the Raspberry Pi
tool [picotool](https://github.com/raspberrypi/picotool). The only thing to be
aware of is that picotool expects your ELF files to have a `.elf` extension, and
by default Rust does not give the ELF files any extension. You can fix this by
simply renaming the file.

This means you can't easily use it as a cargo runner - yet.

Also of note is that the special
[pico-sdk](https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-sdk) macros which hide
information in the ELF file in a way that `picotool info` can read it out, are
not supported in Rust. An alternative is TBC.

<!-- Notes on using rp2040_hal and rp2040_boot2 -->
<details open="open">
<summary><h2 style="display: inline-block" id="notes-on-using-rp2040_boot2">Notes on using rp2040_boot2</h2></summary>

The second-stage boot loader must be written to the .boot2 section. That
is usually handled by the board support package (e.g.`rp-pico`). If you don't use
one, you should initialize the boot loader manually. This can be done by adding the
following to the beginning of main.rs:
```rust
use rp2040_boot2;
#[link_section = ".boot2"]
#[used]
pub static BOOT_LOADER: [u8; 256] = rp2040_boot2::BOOT_LOADER_W25Q080;
```

<!-- Feature flags -->
<details open="open">
<summary><h2 style="display: inline-block" id="feature-flags">Feature flags</h2></summary>

There are several [feature flags in rp2040-hal](https://docs.rs/rp2040-hal/latest/rp2040_hal/#crate-features).
If you want to enable some of them, uncomment the `rp2040-hal` dependency in `Cargo.toml` and add the
desired feature flags there. For example, to enable ROM functions for f64 math using the feature `rom-v2-intrinsics`:
```
rp2040-hal = { version="0.9", features=["rt", "critical-section-impl", "rom-v2-intrinsics"] }
```
</details>
