Adding 7i95T configuration to PnCConf

Hi,

I'm trying to add 7i95T configuration to PnCConf. Istarted with "ADDING_A_MESA_CARD.md" and made through most of the changes on private_data.py
It seems stepgen part are working. But GPIO seems odd. I added 30 GPIO (24 In/6 Out in 7i95T) and GPIO numbers start from "048" and it generate hal entry as
Code:
net home-x <= hm2_7i95.0.gpio.048.in
where mesact2 created following working hal line
Code:
net joint-0-home jjoint.0.home-sw-in <= hm2_7i95.0.inmux.00.input-18

I'm not sure what have I done wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
Here are my structures added.
Code:
'7i95':{'DRIVER':'hm2_eth','PINS_PER_CONNECTOR':24,'TOTAL_CONNECTORS':4,'TAB_NUMS':[1,2,3,4],'TAB_NAMES':['TB3/TB4','TB1/TB2','TB5','TB6']},
Code:

take a look at pncconf.py
def make_pinname

I think that adjusts pin numbers

Ok. It took quite some time to figure out the pin mappings in private_data are not physical connector map. So six encoders actually should be mapped into MXEx.
But on the other hand, INM has to be enumerated to actual input pin number instead of exact pin mapping. I'm still confused the concept but it works for now.

The only problem is that INM0 is translated into

hm2_7i95.0.inm.00.input-%02d

But it crashes LCNC as it can't find "inm" port.
So I had to add mapping them as

hm2_7i95.0.inmux.00.input-%02d

as MesaCT does, then it works with LCNC.
Is this typical? or "inm" configuration is never tested?

Also, looking for a way to add different serial vfd (nowforever). Is there a configurable way? or it has to be added into source code? I tried and it involves bunch of glades and buildHAL code update.

What would be the way to contribute back these changes into LCNC?
Git clone and commit to pull request?

BTW, is "inm" correct for other board and only 7i95 uses "inmux" for the muxed inputs?

inm is used on the 7I96S

inm can actually can be used on any FPGA card
but its in all standard 7I96S firmware

The 7I95,7I95T,7I97,7C80, and 7I36 all use inmux
