| What:		/sys/class/gpio/

| Date:		July 2008

| KernelVersion:	2.6.27
 | |
| Contact:	David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
 | |
| Description:
 | |
| 
 | |
|   As a Kconfig option, individual GPIO signals may be accessed from
 | |
|   userspace.  GPIOs are only made available to userspace by an explicit
 | |
|   "export" operation.  If a given GPIO is not claimed for use by
 | |
|   kernel code, it may be exported by userspace (and unexported later).
 | |
|   Kernel code may export it for complete or partial access.
 | |
| 
 | |
|   GPIOs are identified as they are inside the kernel, using integers in
 | |
|   the range 0..INT_MAX.  See Documentation/gpio.txt for more information.

|     /sys/class/gpio
 | |
| 	/export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace
 | |
| 	/unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel
 | |
| 	/gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N
 | |
| 	    /value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs
 | |
| 	    /direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write: high, low
 | |
| 	    /edge ... r/w as: none, falling, rising, both
 | |
| 	/gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO
 | |
| 	    /base ... (r/o) same as N
 | |
| 	    /label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique
 | |
| 	    /ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N to N + (ngpio - 1)
