Interfacing Sparkfun micro OLED with the MODM7AE70

I ported the library to interface with the Sparkfun micro OLED (#13003).
The OLED displays something but it doesn't quite work.

My code is on Github here:
https://github.com/jpelletier/oled_spi/tree/master

Values at initialisation are good and validated on another platform. The OLED isn't defective, same hardware runs fine on 3 other platforms.

OLED - Netburner connexions

Netb. OLED 0.66" Sparkfun 64x48 pixels #LCD-13003
P2.1 1 GND
P2.2 2 VDD
P2.28 3 D1/MOSI
P2.25 4 D0/SCK
-- 5 D2
P2.9 6 D/C
P2.19 7 nRESET
P2.29 8 nCS

To start with did you set all the functions?
IE
P2[25].function(PINP2_25_SPI0_SPCK);
P2[28].function(PINP2_28_SPI0_MOSI );
P2[9].function(PINP2_9_OUT);

Pin 29 you could choose GPIO or SP{I CS (I'd choose GPIO to start, and manage the CS manually).
I might swithc to QSPI managing the SPI if I got DMA moving a whole image across without intervantion so I just updated ta memory structure and the OLED followed without code action...

P2[29],function(PINP2_29_OUT );
Or for QSPI...PINP2_29_SPI0_NPCS0

What does your SPI code look like?

One could also start by putting all the pins in GPIO mode and bitbanging the interface..

I setted all the function correctly, since it was displaying text. I changed to software management of CS

There was a few bugs but I finally made it work.
The setting for the offset needed to be set to 0x20 to make it display properly.
See here for final code (may still have 'not working' comments but ignore them).
