    I am thinking of writing some app on ODOO x86 which needs to access SPI port based on hardware interrupt on GPIO is it possible to do that in Win 7.

    1. Installing Windows 7 might not be very easy.
    2. Use the Arduino for the GPIO and hardware stuff, that is what is is for. Communicate the (processed) values to your program on the X86.

    Hi @Neelbhai, welcome to the forum :)
    The suggestion by @Maurice is the best route to consider for now, until details are released on GPIOs provided by the main processor.
    You can write an Arduino sketch to forward data from the microcontroller's SPI bus, to the main PC using a virtual com port.
