Description Yuntian Zhang 2018-09-06 19:05:21 UTC
https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/tree/package/python-rpi-gpio/Config.in

When using raspberrypi3_64_defconfig, python-rpi-gpio is not available since this defconfig only sets BR2_aarch64.
Comment 1 Yuntian Zhang 2018-09-06 21:09:07 UTC
After testing with this dependency the python-rpi-gpio is included in the sdcard.img for 3_64_defconfig. However /proc/cpuinfo doesn't match the output of 3_defconfig, which fails rpi.gpio/source/cpuinfo.c:get_rpi_info() test.
Comment 2 Thomas Petazzoni 2018-09-06 21:36:17 UTC
So, in other words, upstream never tested/supported using on AArch64 it seems, so there is no point in enabling this package on AArch64 in Buildroot at the moment. So, I'll mark the bug as INVALID. You can take this up with the upstream project, and then update the package in Buildroot. Thanks!
