DESCRIPTION
The libgpio library provides an interface to configure GPIO pins. The
library operates with a gpio_handle_t opaque type which can be created
with gpio_open() or gpio_open_device(). When no more GPIO operations are
needed, this handle can be destroyed with gpio_close().
To get a list of all available pins, one can call gpio_pin_list(). This
function takes a pointer to a gpio_config_t which is dynamically
allocated. This pointer should be freed with free(3) when it is no
longer necessary.
The function gpio_pin_config() retrieves the current configuration of a
pin. The pin number should be passed in via the g_pin variable which is
part of the gpio_config_t structure.
The function gpio_pin_set_name() sets the name used to describe a pin.
The function gpio_pin_set_flags() configures a pin with the flags passed
in by the gpio_config_t structure. The pin number should also be passed
in through the g_pin variable. All other structure members will be
ignored by this function. The list of flags can be found in
/usr/include/sys/gpio.h.
The get or set the state of a GPIO pin, the functions gpio_pin_get() and
gpio_pin_set() are available, respectively. To toggle the state, use
gpio_pin_toggle().
The functions gpio_pin_low() and gpio_pin_high() are wrappers around
gpio_pin_set().
The functions gpio_pin_input(), gpio_pin_output(), gpio_pin_opendrain(),
gpio_pin_pushpull(), gpio_pin_tristate(), gpio_pin_pullup(),
gpio_pin_pulldown(), gpio_pin_invin(), gpio_pin_invout() and
gpio_pin_pulsate() are wrappers around gpio_pin_set_flags().
EXAMPLES
The following example shows how to configure pin 16 as output and then
drive it high:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <err.h>
#include <libgpio.h>
gpio_handle_t handle;
handle = gpio_open(0);
if (handle == GPIO_INVALID_HANDLE)
gpio_config_t cfg;
cfg.g_pin = 32;
gpio_pin_config(handle, &cfg);
The structure will contain the name of the pin and its flags.
