Hello everyone! I will teach you how to install WiringOP on Armbian. It's not the most practical method, but it works.
First, we download the repository from the original website.
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install -y git
$ git clone https://github.com/orangepi-xunlong/wiringOP.git
Then, we proceed to look for the name of our board that is associated with Armbian.
$ cat /etc/armbian-release | grep "BOARD=" | awk -F'=' '{print $2}'
The previous command will give us the name of the board, which is the following:
root@armbian:~# cat /etc/armbian-release | grep "BOARD=" | awk -F'=' '{print $2}'
orangepi-r1plus-lts
Now, we proceed to go to the WiringOP folder downloaded from Git, and we will modify the "build" file by adding the name of the board in 2 sections.
$ sudo nano wiringOP/build
Inside the "build" file, we will look for the following variable:
boards=("orangepir1"
"orangepizero"
"orangepizero-lts"
"orangepipc"
"orangepipch5"
"orangepipcplus"
"orangepiplus2e"
"orangepione"
"orangepioneh5"
"orangepilite"
"orangepiplus"
"orangepizeroplus2h3"
"orangepizeroplus"
"orangepipc2"
"orangepiprime"
"orangepizeroplus2h5"
"orangepiwin"
"orangepiwinplus"
"orangepi3"
"orangepi3-lts"
"orangepilite2"
"orangepioneplus"
"orangepi4"
"orangepi4-lts"
"orangepirk3399"
"orangepi800"
"orangepizero2"
"orangepizero2-lts"
"orangepizero2-b"
"orangepizero3"
"orangepir1plus-lts"
"orangepir1plus"}
At the end of this variable, we add the board ID that we obtained before. It will look like this after adding the board ID:
boards=("orangepir1"
"orangepizero"
"orangepizero-lts"
"orangepipc"
"orangepipch5"
"orangepipcplus"
"orangepiplus2e"
"orangepione"
"orangepioneh5"
"orangepilite"
"orangepiplus"
"orangepizeroplus2h3"
"orangepizeroplus"
"orangepipc2"
"orangepiprime"
"orangepizeroplus2h5"
"orangepiwin"
"orangepiwinplus"
"orangepi3"
"orangepi3-lts"
"orangepilite2"
"orangepioneplus"
"orangepi4"
"orangepi4-lts"
"orangepirk3399"
"orangepi800"
"orangepizero2"
"orangepizero2-lts"
"orangepizero2-b"
"orangepizero3"
"orangepir1plus-lts"
"orangepir1plus"
"orangepi-r1plus-lts") #<- Here, the board ID was added.
Now, further down in the "Build" file, we will look for the following:
if [[ -f /etc/orangepi-release ]]; then
source /etc/orangepi-release
elif [[ -f /etc/armbian-release ]]; then
source /etc/armbian-release
[[ $BOARD == orangepi-r1 ]] && BOARD=orangepir1
[[ $BOARD == orangepi-rk3399 ]] && BOARD=orangepirk3399
[[ $BOARD == orangepizeroplus2-h3 ]] && BOARD=orangepizeroplus2h3
[[ $BOARD == orangepizeroplus2-h5 ]] && BOARD=orangepizeroplus2h5
#----->Here new board<---------------
else
In the brand section of the code above, we will place the following code.
Replace [board_id_goes_here] with the actual board ID that we obtained at the beginning of the tutorial.
[[board_id_goes_here]] && BOARD=orangepir1plus-rk3328
After making the modifications, it will look like this:
if [[ -f /etc/orangepi-release ]]; then
source /etc/orangepi-release
elif [[ -f /etc/armbian-release ]]; then
source /etc/armbian-release
[[ $BOARD == orangepi-r1 ]] && BOARD=orangepir1
[[ $BOARD == orangepi-rk3399 ]] && BOARD=orangepirk3399
[[ $BOARD == orangepizeroplus2-h3 ]] && BOARD=orangepizeroplus2h3
[[ $BOARD == orangepizeroplus2-h5 ]] && BOARD=orangepizeroplus2h5
[[ $BOARD == orangepi-r1plus-lts ]] && BOARD=orangepir1plus-rk3328
else
The last parameter can be modified with a different board, in case of using other versions of OrangePi. You just need to look for the corresponding one in the same "build" file, and replace only the board ID.
Now we can close the file and proceed to apply ./build clean and ./build. However, the current version of OrangePi r1+LTS officially has a problem that we will also fix next.
$ sudo nano wiringOP/wiringPi/OrangePi.h
Inside the file, some #define statements need to be added to resolve the conflicts they are causing. Hopefully, Xunlong will fix this issue in the future. For now, we will apply a patch as I haven't been able to find where to obtain these GPIO_BASE.
Inside the file "Orangepi.h," we will look for the following
//csy 2019.1.8
/*********** OrangePi R1PLUS *************/
#if CONFIG_ORANGEPI_R1PLUS
#define GPIO2_BASE 0xff230000
#define GPIO3_BASE 0xff240000
#define GPIO_NUM (0x40)
#define GPIO_SWPORTA_DR_OFFSET 0x00
#define GPIO_SWPORTA_DDR_OFFSET 0x04
#define GPIO_EXT_PORTA_OFFSET 0x50
#define GRF_BASE 0xff100000
#define GRF_GPIO2A_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x20
#define GRF_GPIO2BL_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x24
#define GRF_GPIO2BH_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x28
#define GRF_GPIO2CL_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x2c
#define GRF_GPIO2CH_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x30
#define GRF_GPIO2D_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x34
#define GRF_GPIO3AL_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x38
#define GRF_GPIO3AH_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x3c
#define GRF_GPIO3BL_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x40
#define GRF_GPIO3BH_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x44
#define GRF_GPIO3C_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x48
#define GRF_GPIO3D_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x4c
We will modify this to make it look like the following:
#endif /* CONFIG_ORANGEPI_RK3399 */
//csy 2019.1.8
/*********** OrangePi R1PLUS *************/
#if CONFIG_ORANGEPI_R1PLUS
#define GPIO2_BASE 0xff230000
#define GPIO3_BASE 0xff240000
#define GPIO_NUM (0x40)
#define GPIOL_BASE (0x0) #New lines added.
#define GPIO_BASE_MAP (0x0) #New lines added.
#define GPIO_SWPORTA_DR_OFFSET 0x00
#define GPIO_SWPORTA_DDR_OFFSET 0x04
#define GPIO_EXT_PORTA_OFFSET 0x50
#define GRF_BASE 0xff100000
#define GRF_GPIO2A_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x20
#define GRF_GPIO2BL_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x24
#define GRF_GPIO2BH_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x28

#define GRF_GPIO3C_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x48
#define GRF_GPIO3D_IOMUX_OFFSET 0x4c
#define CRU_BASE 0xff440000
#define CRU_CLKGATE_CON16_OFFSET 0x0240 //bit 7 8 9 10 9877
We save the changes and apply build clean and build.
The result is:
