Disabling the User led pins on Beaglebone black board

We are using the GPMC bus on the beaglebone black. To achieve this, we have defined our own dts file for configuring the pins on P8 and P9 headers for GPMC purpose. Though, we have enabled the User led pin group through our dts file, we are observing those pins as userled group in our pin mux.  We were using Kernel 3.14, which was downgraded to Kernel 3.8 to use its capemanager to enable our dts file. Therefore, we are using Kernel 3.8 as of now.How do we disable them as user led group such that, they should belong to the gpmc pin group?

Please provide us the solution to this issue.

  • Hi Biser,

    Thanks for your reply. But, we have another query here. Though, we have configured those user led pins as GPMC pins, they are getting listed as user led groups twice when we 

    cat /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/44e10800.pinmux/pingroups

    registered pin groups:
    group: pinmux_userled_pins
    pin 21 (44e10854)

    pin 23 (44e1085c)

    pin 32 (44e10880)
    pin 28 (44e10870)
    pin 31 (44e1087c)

    Could you please let us know why these are being listed twice and how do we disable them as user led pins and enable them as gpmc pins?
