d2xx
Package d2xx is a thin Go wrapper for the Future Technology "D2XX" driver at https://ftdichip.com/drivers/d2xx-drivers/.
This package is not Go idiomatic. You will want to use https://periph.io/x/host/v3/ftdi (or later) instead.
But if you really want, here it goes:
This Go package includes third party software. See third_party/README.md.
Configuration
See https://periph.io/device/ftdi/ to configure the host to be able to use this driver.
Availability
On darwin_amd64, linux_amd64 linux_arm (v6, v7 compatible) and linux_arm64 (v8),
cgo is required. If cgo is disabled (via CGO_ENABLED=0), all functions in this
driver return error NoCGO.
On Windows, cgo is not required. If the dynamic library is not found at runtime, Missing is returned.
bcm2385
On linux_arm (v6), hard-float is required. For cross compilation, this means arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc is preferred to arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc. Using hardfloat causes a segfault on Raspberry Pi 1, Zero and Zero Wireless. It is recommended to disable this driver if targeting these hosts, see below.
Disabling
To disable this driver, build with tag no_d2xx, e.g.
go install -tags no_d2xx periph.io/x/cmd/gpio-list@latest
This will behave has if cgo was disabled, even on Windows.
