Thanks for feedback.

 I don't see a particular reason why some channels would not work.
For pins, there's alway a possibility of pin conflicts (as I can see that pa8 is also used on i2c2).
So please take care to this.

Otherwise, don't hesitate to raise a bug if things don't work as expected.

Hello,

I've added the pin PA8 to PWM of timers1:

timers1: timers@40010000 {
             status = "okay";

             pwm {
                 status = "okay";
                 pinctrl-0 = <&tim1_ch1_pwm_pa8>;
             };
  };

This did not work (no output pulse, no error logged either).

However, the PA5 pin (configured like above for PWM of timers2) did
work, and now i have a nice 100 microsecond period pulse on that pin.

I've tried the second channel (tim1_ch2_pwm_pa9) of the first
timer, but
that one (like the first channel) also does not work (no output
pulse).

Im going try more of the PWM channels, to see what is working and
what
is not, but it seems like the first pwm device (PWM_1, as part of
timers1) is not working, any reason why not?
