Hi,

I’m sure this is a very stupid question, but I haven’t been able to get to get this working.  I’ve got the following device tree fragment:

     gpio0: gpio@842500 {

           compatible = "nordic,nrf-gpio";

           gpio-controller;

           reg = < 0x842500 0x300 >;

           #gpio-cells = < 0x2 >;

           label = "GPIO_0";

           status = "okay";

           port = < 0x0 >;

          phandle = < 0x2 >;

     };

(and elsewhere…)

     buttons {

           compatible = "gpio-keys";

           button_sel_role: button_1 {

                gpios = < &gpio0 0x2 0x11 >;

                label = "Push button 1";

           };

     };

Button_sel_role is on different GPIO controllers on some of the devices I’m developing on.  I’d like to get the GPIO controller handle, and figured I could do it with something like the following:

     static const struct device *gpio_dev = DT_GPIO_CTLR(DT_NODELABEL(button_sel_role), gpios);

Unfortunately, this gives me a long chain of macro expansions, eventually terminating in

<build_dir>/zephyr/include/generated/devicetree_unfixed.h:656:52: error: 'DT_N_S_soc_S_peripheral_50000000_S_gpio_842500' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'DT_N_S_soc_S_peripheral_50000000_S_gpio_842500_ORD'?

[build]   656 | #define DT_N_S_buttons_S_button_1_P_gpios_IDX_0_PH DT_N_S_soc_S_peripheral_50000000_S_gpio_842500

Using DT_PROP, I can access the label, so I don’t think the expansion of DT_NODELABEL is wrong.  I’m not really sure how to continue troubleshooting this.  Any advice?

Thanks,

Solved, and yes, it was a stupid question.  Given a closer read of the DT_GPIO_CTLR documentation, I noticed that it returns a node identifier, and not, as I expected a device handle.  The correct statement:

static const struct device *gpio_dev = DEVICE_DT_GET(DT_GPIO_CTLR(DT_NODELABEL(button_sel_role), gpios));

Thank you for everyone’s help,
