4. USERSPACE PROGRAMMING
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The cfag12864bfb describes a framebuffer device (/dev/fbX).
|
||||
|
||||
It has a size of 1024 bytes = 1 Kbyte.
|
||||
Each bit represents one pixel. If the bit is high, the pixel will
|
||||
turn on. If the pixel is low, the pixel will turn off.
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the framebuffer as a file: fopen, fwrite, fclose...
|
||||
Although the LCD won't get updated until the next refresh time arrives.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, you can mmap the framebuffer: open & mmap, munmap & close...
|
||||
which is the best option for most uses.
|
||||
|
||||
Check Documentation/auxdisplay/cfag12864b-example.c
|
||||
for a real working userspace complete program with usage examples.

||||
|
||||
|
||||
1. Intro
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
devres came up while trying to convert libata to use iomap. Each
|
||||
iomapped address should be kept and unmapped on driver detach. For
|
||||
example, a plain SFF ATA controller (that is, good old PCI IDE) in
|
||||
native mode makes use of 5 PCI BARs and all of them should be
|
||||
maintained.
|
||||
|
||||
As with many other device drivers, libata low level drivers have
|
||||
sufficient bugs in ->remove and ->probe failure path. Well, yes,
|
||||
that's probably because libata low level driver developers are lazy
|
||||
bunch, but aren't all low level driver developers? After spending a
|
||||
day fiddling with braindamaged hardware with no document or
|
||||
braindamaged document, if it's finally working, well, it's working.
|
||||
|
||||
For one reason or another, low level drivers don't receive as much
|
||||
attention or testing as core code, and bugs on driver detach or
|
||||
initilaization failure doesn't happen often enough to be noticeable.
|
||||
Init failure path is worse because it's much less travelled while
|
||||
needs to handle multiple entry points.
|
||||
|
||||
So, many low level drivers end up leaking resources on driver detach
|
||||
and having half broken failure path implementation in ->probe() which
|
||||
would leak resources or even cause oops when failure occurs. iomap
|
||||
adds more to this mix. So do msi and msix.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. Devres
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
devres is basically linked list of arbitrarily sized memory areas
|
||||
associated with a struct device. Each devres entry is associated with
|
||||
a release function. A devres can be released in several ways. No
|
||||
matter what, all devres entries are released on driver detach. On
|
||||
release, the associated release function is invoked and then the
|
||||
devres entry is freed.
|
||||
|
||||
Managed interface is created for resources commonly used by device
|
||||
drivers using devres. For example, coherent DMA memory is acquired
|
||||
using dma_alloc_coherent(). The managed version is called
|
||||
dmam_alloc_coherent(). It is identical to dma_alloc_coherent() except
|
||||
for the DMA memory allocated using it is managed and will be
|
||||
automatically released on driver detach. Implementation looks like
|
||||
the following.
|
||||
|
||||
struct dma_devres {
|
||||
size_t size;
|
||||
void *vaddr;
|
||||
dma_addr_t dma_handle;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
static void dmam_coherent_release(struct device *dev, void *res)
|
||||
{
|
||||
struct dma_devres *this = res;
|
||||
|
||||
dma_free_coherent(dev, this->size, this->vaddr, this->dma_handle);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
dmam_alloc_coherent(dev, size, dma_handle, gfp)
|
||||
{
|
||||
struct dma_devres *dr;
|
||||
void *vaddr;
|
||||
|
||||
dr = devres_alloc(dmam_coherent_release, sizeof(*dr), gfp);
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
/* alloc DMA memory as usual */
|
||||
vaddr = dma_alloc_coherent(...);
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
/* record size, vaddr, dma_handle in dr */
|
||||
dr->vaddr = vaddr;
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
devres_add(dev, dr);
|
||||
|
||||
return vaddr;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
If a driver uses dmam_alloc_coherent(), the area is guaranteed to be
|
||||
freed whether initialization fails half-way or the device gets
|
||||
detached. If most resources are acquired using managed interface, a
|
||||
driver can have much simpler init and exit code. Init path basically
|
||||
looks like the following.
|
||||
|
||||
my_init_one()
|
||||
{
|
||||
struct mydev *d;
|
||||
|
||||
d = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(*d), GFP_KERNEL);
|
||||
if (!d)
|
||||
return -ENOMEM;
|
||||
|
||||
d->ring = dmam_alloc_coherent(...);
|
||||
if (!d->ring)
|
||||
return -ENOMEM;
|
||||
|
||||
if (check something)
|
||||
return -EINVAL;
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
return register_to_upper_layer(d);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
And exit path,
|
||||
|
||||
my_remove_one()
|
||||
{
|
||||
unregister_from_upper_layer(d);
|
||||
shutdown_my_hardware();
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
As shown above, low level drivers can be simplified a lot by using
|
||||
devres. Complexity is shifted from less maintained low level drivers
|
||||
to better maintained higher layer. Also, as init failure path is
|
||||
shared with exit path, both can get more testing.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3. Devres group
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
Devres entries can be grouped using devres group. When a group is
|
||||
released, all contained normal devres entries and properly nested
|
||||
groups are released. One usage is to rollback series of acquired
|
||||
resources on failure. For example,
|
||||
|
||||
if (!devres_open_group(dev, NULL, GFP_KERNEL))
|
||||
return -ENOMEM;
|
||||
|
||||
acquire A;
|
||||
if (failed)
|
||||
goto err;
|
||||
|
||||
acquire B;
|
||||
if (failed)
|
||||
goto err;
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
devres_remove_group(dev, NULL);
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
|
||||
err:
|
||||
devres_release_group(dev, NULL);
|
||||
return err_code;
|
||||
|
||||
As resource acquision failure usually means probe failure, constructs
|
||||
like above are usually useful in midlayer driver (e.g. libata core
|
||||
layer) where interface function shouldn't have side effect on failure.
|
||||
For LLDs, just returning error code suffices in most cases.
|
||||
|
||||
Each group is identified by void *id. It can either be explicitly
|
||||
specified by @id argument to devres_open_group() or automatically
|
||||
created by passing NULL as @id as in the above example. In both
|
||||
cases, devres_open_group() returns the group's id. The returned id
|
||||
can be passed to other devres functions to select the target group.
|
||||
If NULL is given to those functions, the latest open group is
|
||||
selected.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, you can do something like the following.
|
||||
|
||||
int my_midlayer_create_something()
|
||||
{
|
||||
if (!devres_open_group(dev, my_midlayer_create_something, GFP_KERNEL))
|
||||
return -ENOMEM;
|
||||
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
devres_close_group(dev, my_midlayer_something);
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
void my_midlayer_destroy_something()
|
||||
{
|
||||
devres_release_group(dev, my_midlayer_create_soemthing);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
4. Details
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
Lifetime of a devres entry begins on devres allocation and finishes
|
||||
when it is released or destroyed (removed and freed) - no reference
|
||||
counting.
|
||||
|
||||
devres core guarantees atomicity to all basic devres operations and
|
||||
has support for single-instance devres types (atomic
|
||||
lookup-and-add-if-not-found). Other than that, synchronizing
|
||||
concurrent accesses to allocated devres data is caller's
|
||||
responsibility. This is usually non-issue because bus ops and
|
||||
resource allocations already do the job.
|
||||
|
||||
For an example of single-instance devres type, read pcim_iomap_table()
|
||||
in lib/iomap.c.
|
||||
|
||||
All devres interface functions can be called without context if the
|
||||
right gfp mask is given.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
5. Overhead
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
Each devres bookkeeping info is allocated together with requested data
|
||||
area. With debug option turned off, bookkeeping info occupies 16
|
||||
bytes on 32bit machines and 24 bytes on 64bit (three pointers rounded
|
||||
up to ull alignment). If singly linked list is used, it can be
|
||||
reduced to two pointers (8 bytes on 32bit, 16 bytes on 64bit).
|
||||
|
||||
Each devres group occupies 8 pointers. It can be reduced to 6 if
|
||||
singly linked list is used.
|
||||
|
||||
Memory space overhead on ahci controller with two ports is between 300
|
||||
and 400 bytes on 32bit machine after naive conversion (we can
|
||||
certainly invest a bit more effort into libata core layer).

|
||||
|
||||
S3 Trio32
|
||||
S3 Trio64 (and variants V+, UV+, V2/DX, V2/GX)
|
||||
S3 Virge (and variants VX, DX, GX and GX2+)
|

S3 Aurora64V+ (completely untested)
|
||||
|
||||
- only PCI bus supported
|
||||
- only BIOS initialized VGA devices supported
|
||||
- probably not working on big endian
|
||||
|
||||
I tested s3fb on Trio64 (plain, V+ and V2/DX) and Virge (plain, VX, DX),
|
||||
all on i386.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Supported Features
|
||||
==================
|
||||
|
||||
* 4 bpp pseudocolor modes (with 18bit palette, two variants)
|
||||
* 8 bpp pseudocolor mode (with 18bit palette)
|
||||
* 16 bpp truecolor modes (RGB 555 and RGB 565)
|
||||
* 24 bpp truecolor mode (RGB 888) on (only on Virge VX)
|
||||
* 32 bpp truecolor mode (RGB 888) on (not on Virge VX)
|
||||
* text mode (activated by bpp = 0)
|
||||
* interlaced mode variant (not available in text mode)
|
||||
* doublescan mode variant (not available in text mode)
|
||||
* panning in both directions
|
||||
* suspend/resume support
|
||||
* DPMS support
|
||||
|
||||
Text mode is supported even in higher resolutions, but there is limitation
|
||||
to lower pixclocks (maximum between 50-60 MHz, depending on specific hardware).
|
||||
This limitation is not enforced by driver. Text mode supports 8bit wide fonts
|
||||
only (hardware limitation) and 16bit tall fonts (driver limitation).
|
||||
|
||||
There are two 4 bpp modes. First mode (selected if nonstd == 0) is mode with
|
||||
packed pixels, high nibble first. Second mode (selected if nonstd == 1) is mode
|
||||
with interleaved planes (1 byte interleave), MSB first. Both modes support
|
||||
8bit wide fonts only (driver limitation).
|
||||
|
||||
Suspend/resume works on systems that initialize video card during resume and
|
||||
if device is active (for example used by fbcon).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Missing Features
|
||||
================
|
||||

|
||||
* big endian support
|
||||
* Zorro bus support
|
||||

|
||||
* support for fontheight != 16 in text mode
|
||||
* composite and external sync (is anyone able to test this?)
|
||||
* hardware cursor
|
||||
* video overlay support
|
||||
* vsync synchronization
|
||||
* feature connector support
|
||||
* acceleration support (8514-like 2D, Virge 3D, busmaster transfers)
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Known bugs

GPIO Interfaces
|
||||
|
||||
This provides an overview of GPIO access conventions on Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
What is a GPIO?
|
||||
===============
|
||||
A "General Purpose Input/Output" (GPIO) is a flexible software-controlled
|
||||
digital signal. They are provided from many kinds of chip, and are familiar
|
||||
to Linux developers working with embedded and custom hardware. Each GPIO
|
||||
represents a bit connected to a particular pin, or "ball" on Ball Grid Array
|
||||
(BGA) packages. Board schematics show which external hardware connects to
|
||||
which GPIOs. Drivers can be written generically, so that board setup code
|
||||
passes such pin configuration data to drivers.
|
||||
|
||||
System-on-Chip (SOC) processors heavily rely on GPIOs. In some cases, every
|
||||
non-dedicated pin can be configured as a GPIO; and most chips have at least
|
||||
several dozen of them. Programmable logic devices (like FPGAs) can easily
|
||||
provide GPIOs; multifunction chips like power managers, and audio codecs
|
||||
often have a few such pins to help with pin scarcity on SOCs; and there are
|
||||
also "GPIO Expander" chips that connect using the I2C or SPI serial busses.
|
||||
Most PC southbridges have a few dozen GPIO-capable pins (with only the BIOS
|
||||
firmware knowing how they're used).
|
||||
|
||||
The exact capabilities of GPIOs vary between systems. Common options:
|
||||
|
||||
- Output values are writable (high=1, low=0). Some chips also have
|
||||
options about how that value is driven, so that for example only one
|
||||
value might be driven ... supporting "wire-OR" and similar schemes
|
||||
for the other value.
|
||||
|
||||
- Input values are likewise readable (1, 0). Some chips support readback
|
||||
of pins configured as "output", which is very useful in such "wire-OR"
|
||||
cases (to support bidirectional signaling). GPIO controllers may have
|
||||
input de-glitch logic, sometimes with software controls.
|
||||
|
||||
- Inputs can often be used as IRQ signals, often edge triggered but
|
||||
sometimes level triggered. Such IRQs may be configurable as system
|
||||
wakeup events, to wake the system from a low power state.
|
||||
|
||||
- Usually a GPIO will be configurable as either input or output, as needed
|
||||
by different product boards; single direction ones exist too.
|
||||
|
||||
- Most GPIOs can be accessed while holding spinlocks, but those accessed
|
||||
through a serial bus normally can't. Some systems support both types.
|
||||
|
||||
On a given board each GPIO is used for one specific purpose like monitoring
|
||||
MMC/SD card insertion/removal, detecting card writeprotect status, driving
|
||||
a LED, configuring a transceiver, bitbanging a serial bus, poking a hardware
|
||||
watchdog, sensing a switch, and so on.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
GPIO conventions
|
||||
================
|
||||
Note that this is called a "convention" because you don't need to do it this
|
||||
way, and it's no crime if you don't. There **are** cases where portability
|
||||
is not the main issue; GPIOs are often used for the kind of board-specific
|
||||
glue logic that may even change between board revisions, and can't ever be
|
||||
used on a board that's wired differently. Only least-common-denominator
|
||||
functionality can be very portable. Other features are platform-specific,
|
||||
and that can be critical for glue logic.
|
||||
|
||||
Plus, this doesn't define an implementation framework, just an interface.
|
||||
One platform might implement it as simple inline functions accessing chip
|
||||
registers; another might implement it by delegating through abstractions
|
||||
used for several very different kinds of GPIO controller.
|
||||
|
||||
That said, if the convention is supported on their platform, drivers should
|
||||
use it when possible:
|
||||
|
||||
#include <asm/gpio.h>
|
||||
|
||||
If you stick to this convention then it'll be easier for other developers to
|
||||
see what your code is doing, and help maintain it.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Identifying GPIOs
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
GPIOs are identified by unsigned integers in the range 0..MAX_INT. That
|
||||
reserves "negative" numbers for other purposes like marking signals as
|
||||
"not available on this board", or indicating faults.
|
||||
|
||||
Platforms define how they use those integers, and usually #define symbols
|
||||
for the GPIO lines so that board-specific setup code directly corresponds
|
||||
to the relevant schematics. In contrast, drivers should only use GPIO
|
||||
numbers passed to them from that setup code, using platform_data to hold
|
||||
board-specific pin configuration data (along with other board specific
|
||||
data they need). That avoids portability problems.
|
||||
|
||||
So for example one platform uses numbers 32-159 for GPIOs; while another
|
||||
uses numbers 0..63 with one set of GPIO controllers, 64-79 with another
|
||||
type of GPIO controller, and on one particular board 80-95 with an FPGA.
|
||||
The numbers need not be contiguous; either of those platforms could also
|
||||
use numbers 2000-2063 to identify GPIOs in a bank of I2C GPIO expanders.
|
||||
|
||||
Whether a platform supports multiple GPIO controllers is currently a
|
||||
platform-specific implementation issue.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Using GPIOs
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
One of the first things to do with a GPIO, often in board setup code when
|
||||
setting up a platform_device using the GPIO, is mark its direction:
|
||||
|
||||
/* set as input or output, returning 0 or negative errno */
|
||||
int gpio_direction_input(unsigned gpio);
|
||||
int gpio_direction_output(unsigned gpio);
|
||||
|
||||
The return value is zero for success, else a negative errno. It should
|
||||
be checked, since the get/set calls don't have error returns and since
|
||||
misconfiguration is possible. (These calls could sleep.)
|
||||
|
||||
Setting the direction can fail if the GPIO number is invalid, or when
|
||||
that particular GPIO can't be used in that mode. It's generally a bad
|
||||
idea to rely on boot firmware to have set the direction correctly, since
|
||||
it probably wasn't validated to do more than boot Linux. (Similarly,
|
||||
that board setup code probably needs to multiplex that pin as a GPIO,
|
||||
and configure pullups/pulldowns appropriately.)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Spinlock-Safe GPIO access
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
Most GPIO controllers can be accessed with memory read/write instructions.
|
||||
That doesn't need to sleep, and can safely be done from inside IRQ handlers.
|
||||
|
||||
Use these calls to access such GPIOs:
|
||||
|
||||
/* GPIO INPUT: return zero or nonzero */
|
||||
int gpio_get_value(unsigned gpio);
|
||||
|
||||
/* GPIO OUTPUT */
|
||||
void gpio_set_value(unsigned gpio, int value);
|
||||
|
||||
The values are boolean, zero for low, nonzero for high. When reading the
|
||||
value of an output pin, the value returned should be what's seen on the
|
||||
pin ... that won't always match the specified output value, because of
|
||||
issues including wire-OR and output latencies.
|
||||
|
||||
The get/set calls have no error returns because "invalid GPIO" should have
|
||||
been reported earlier in gpio_set_direction(). However, note that not all
|
||||
platforms can read the value of output pins; those that can't should always
|
||||
return zero. Also, these calls will be ignored for GPIOs that can't safely
|
||||
be accessed wihtout sleeping (see below).
|
||||
|
||||
Platform-specific implementations are encouraged to optimise the two
|
||||
calls to access the GPIO value in cases where the GPIO number (and for
|
||||
output, value) are constant. It's normal for them to need only a couple
|
||||
of instructions in such cases (reading or writing a hardware register),
|
||||
and not to need spinlocks. Such optimized calls can make bitbanging
|
||||
applications a lot more efficient (in both space and time) than spending
|
||||
dozens of instructions on subroutine calls.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
GPIO access that may sleep
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
Some GPIO controllers must be accessed using message based busses like I2C
|
||||
or SPI. Commands to read or write those GPIO values require waiting to
|
||||
get to the head of a queue to transmit a command and get its response.
|
||||
This requires sleeping, which can't be done from inside IRQ handlers.
|
||||
|
||||
Platforms that support this type of GPIO distinguish them from other GPIOs
|
||||
by returning nonzero from this call:
|
||||
|
||||
int gpio_cansleep(unsigned gpio);
|
||||
|
||||
To access such GPIOs, a different set of accessors is defined:
|
||||
|
||||
/* GPIO INPUT: return zero or nonzero, might sleep */
|
||||
int gpio_get_value_cansleep(unsigned gpio);
|
||||
|
||||
/* GPIO OUTPUT, might sleep */
|
||||
void gpio_set_value_cansleep(unsigned gpio, int value);
|
||||
|
||||
Other than the fact that these calls might sleep, and will not be ignored
|
||||
for GPIOs that can't be accessed from IRQ handlers, these calls act the
|
||||
same as the spinlock-safe calls.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Claiming and Releasing GPIOs (OPTIONAL)
|
||||
---------------------------------------
|
||||
To help catch system configuration errors, two calls are defined.
|
||||
However, many platforms don't currently support this mechanism.
|
||||
|
||||
/* request GPIO, returning 0 or negative errno.
|
||||
* non-null labels may be useful for diagnostics.
|
||||
*/
|
||||
int gpio_request(unsigned gpio, const char *label);
|
||||
|
||||
/* release previously-claimed GPIO */
|
||||
void gpio_free(unsigned gpio);
|
||||
|
||||
Passing invalid GPIO numbers to gpio_request() will fail, as will requesting
|
||||
GPIOs that have already been claimed with that call. The return value of
|
||||
gpio_request() must be checked. (These calls could sleep.)
|
||||
|
||||
These calls serve two basic purposes. One is marking the signals which
|
||||
are actually in use as GPIOs, for better diagnostics; systems may have
|
||||
several hundred potential GPIOs, but often only a dozen are used on any
|
||||
given board. Another is to catch conflicts between drivers, reporting
|
||||
errors when drivers wrongly think they have exclusive use of that signal.
|
||||
|
||||
These two calls are optional because not not all current Linux platforms
|
||||
offer such functionality in their GPIO support; a valid implementation
|
||||
could return success for all gpio_request() calls. Unlike the other calls,
|
||||
the state they represent doesn't normally match anything from a hardware
|
||||
register; it's just a software bitmap which clearly is not necessary for
|
||||
correct operation of hardware or (bug free) drivers.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that requesting a GPIO does NOT cause it to be configured in any
|
||||
way; it just marks that GPIO as in use. Separate code must handle any
|
||||
pin setup (e.g. controlling which pin the GPIO uses, pullup/pulldown).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
GPIOs mapped to IRQs
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
GPIO numbers are unsigned integers; so are IRQ numbers. These make up
|
||||
two logically distinct namespaces (GPIO 0 need not use IRQ 0). You can
|
||||
map between them using calls like:
|
||||
|
||||
/* map GPIO numbers to IRQ numbers */
|
||||
int gpio_to_irq(unsigned gpio);
|
||||
|
||||
/* map IRQ numbers to GPIO numbers */
|
||||
int irq_to_gpio(unsigned irq);
|
||||
|
||||
Those return either the corresponding number in the other namespace, or
|
||||
else a negative errno code if the mapping can't be done. (For example,
|
||||
some GPIOs can't used as IRQs.) It is an unchecked error to use a GPIO
|
||||
number that hasn't been marked as an input using gpio_set_direction(), or
|
||||
to use an IRQ number that didn't originally come from gpio_to_irq().
|
||||
|
||||
These two mapping calls are expected to cost on the order of a single
|
||||
addition or subtraction. They're not allowed to sleep.
|
||||
|
||||
Non-error values returned from gpio_to_irq() can be passed to request_irq()
|
||||
or free_irq(). They will often be stored into IRQ resources for platform
|
||||
devices, by the board-specific initialization code. Note that IRQ trigger
|
||||
options are part of the IRQ interface, e.g. IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING, as are
|
||||
system wakeup capabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
Non-error values returned from irq_to_gpio() would most commonly be used
|
||||
with gpio_get_value().
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
What do these conventions omit?
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
One of the biggest things these conventions omit is pin multiplexing, since
|
||||
this is highly chip-specific and nonportable. One platform might not need
|
||||
explicit multiplexing; another might have just two options for use of any
|
||||
given pin; another might have eight options per pin; another might be able
|
||||
to route a given GPIO to any one of several pins. (Yes, those examples all
|
||||
come from systems that run Linux today.)
|
||||
|
||||
Related to multiplexing is configuration and enabling of the pullups or
|
||||
pulldowns integrated on some platforms. Not all platforms support them,
|
||||
or support them in the same way; and any given board might use external
|
||||
pullups (or pulldowns) so that the on-chip ones should not be used.
|
||||
|
||||
There are other system-specific mechanisms that are not specified here,
|
||||
like the aforementioned options for input de-glitching and wire-OR output.
|
||||
Hardware may support reading or writing GPIOs in gangs, but that's usually
|
||||
configuration dependednt: for GPIOs sharing the same bank. (GPIOs are
|
||||
commonly grouped in banks of 16 or 32, with a given SOC having several such
|
||||
banks.) Code relying on such mechanisms will necessarily be nonportable.
|
||||
|
||||
Dynamic definition of GPIOs is not currently supported; for example, as
|
||||
a side effect of configuring an add-on board with some GPIO expanders.
|
||||
|
||||
These calls are purely for kernel space, but a userspace API could be built
|
||||
on top of it.
