GPIO interrupts not recognized on RP2350 (Pico 2)

[tdunning]

I have written a simple program that should recognize edges on an input and trigger an interrupt. The interrupt doesn't happen.

Here is the simple program:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"machine"
	"time"
)

func bcast(x bool) int {
	if x {
		return 1
	} else {
		return 0
	}
}

func main() {
	// square wave is fed to pin 10
	p := machine.Pin(10)
	p.Configure(machine.PinConfig{Mode: machine.PinInputPullup})
	// and should be echoed to pin 11
	q := machine.Pin(11)
	q.Configure(machine.PinConfig{Mode: machine.PinOutput})
	err := p.SetInterrupt(machine.PinRising, func(pin machine.Pin) {
		fmt.Printf("verify pin: %d\n", pin)
		fmt.Printf("interrupt: %d, %d\n", bcast(p.Get()), bcast(pin.Get()))
		q.Set(p.Get())
	})
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Printf("err set interrupt: %s\n", err.Error())
		panic(err.Error())
	} else {
		fmt.Printf("set interrupt ok\n")
	}
	for i := 0; i < 300; i++ {
		fmt.Printf("tick %d, pin=%d\n", i, bcast(p.Get()))
		time.Sleep(1 * time.Second)
	}
}

And here is the output when run on a Pico2. The main loop runs fine and the pin is clearly changing state but the interrupt is not recognized.

I suspect that there is something about the RP2350 that requires a slight additional bit of work in order to enable the control of interrupts. It may have to do with the newly introduced security model.

I don't have a 2040 based Pico to test on right now so I can't confirm this works on the RP2040

I have now confirmed that interrupts worked as expected on the RP2040.

That means that this is, indeed, an issue introduced by the 2350. My guess is the security stuff isn't being disabled during initial boot.
