GPIO Sysfs Interface for Userspace
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
Platforms which use the "gpiolib" implementors framework may choose to
|
||||
configure a sysfs user interface to GPIOs. This is different from the
|
||||
debugfs interface, since it provides control over GPIO direction and
|
||||
value instead of just showing a gpio state summary. Plus, it could be
|
||||
present on production systems without debugging support.
|
||||
|
||||
Given appropriate hardware documentation for the system, userspace could
|
||||
know for example that GPIO #23 controls the write protect line used to
|
||||
protect boot loader segments in flash memory. System upgrade procedures
|
||||
may need to temporarily remove that protection, first importing a GPIO,
|
||||
then changing its output state, then updating the code before re-enabling
|
||||
the write protection. In normal use, GPIO #23 would never be touched,
|
||||
and the kernel would have no need to know about it.
|
||||
|
||||
Again depending on appropriate hardware documentation, on some systems
|
||||
userspace GPIO can be used to determine system configuration data that
|
||||
standard kernels won't know about. And for some tasks, simple userspace
|
||||
GPIO drivers could be all that the system really needs.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that standard kernel drivers exist for common "LEDs and Buttons"
|
||||
GPIO tasks: "leds-gpio" and "gpio_keys", respectively. Use those
|
||||
instead of talking directly to the GPIOs; they integrate with kernel
|
||||
frameworks better than your userspace code could.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Paths in Sysfs
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
There are three kinds of entry in /sys/class/gpio:
|
||||
|
||||
- Control interfaces used to get userspace control over GPIOs;
|
||||
|
||||
- GPIOs themselves; and
|
||||
|
||||
- GPIO controllers ("gpio_chip" instances).
|
||||
|
||||
That's in addition to standard files including the "device" symlink.
|
||||
|
||||
The control interfaces are write-only:
|
||||
|
||||
/sys/class/gpio/
|
||||
|
||||
"export" ... Userspace may ask the kernel to export control of
|
||||
a GPIO to userspace by writing its number to this file.
|
||||
|
||||
Example: "echo 19 > export" will create a "gpio19" node
|
||||
for GPIO #19, if that's not requested by kernel code.
|
||||
|
||||
"unexport" ... Reverses the effect of exporting to userspace.
|
||||
|
||||
Example: "echo 19 > unexport" will remove a "gpio19"
|
||||
node exported using the "export" file.
|
||||
|
||||
GPIO signals have paths like /sys/class/gpio/gpio42/ (for GPIO #42)
|
||||
and have the following read/write attributes:
|
||||
|
||||
/sys/class/gpio/gpioN/
|
||||
|
||||
"direction" ... reads as either "in" or "out". This value may
|
||||
normally be written. Writing as "out" defaults to
|
||||
initializing the value as low. To ensure glitch free
|
||||
operation, values "low" and "high" may be written to
|
||||
configure the GPIO as an output with that initial value.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that this attribute *will not exist* if the kernel
|
||||
doesn't support changing the direction of a GPIO, or
|
||||
it was exported by kernel code that didn't explicitly
|
||||
allow userspace to reconfigure this GPIO's direction.
|
||||
|
||||
"value" ... reads as either 0 (low) or 1 (high). If the GPIO
|
||||
is configured as an output, this value may be written;
|
||||
any nonzero value is treated as high.
|
||||
|
||||
If the pin can be configured as interrupt-generating interrupt
|
||||
and if it has been configured to generate interrupts (see the
|
||||
description of "edge"), you can poll(2) on that file and
|
||||
poll(2) will return whenever the interrupt was triggered. If
|
||||
you use poll(2), set the events POLLPRI and POLLERR. If you
|
||||
use select(2), set the file descriptor in exceptfds. After
|
||||
poll(2) returns, either lseek(2) to the beginning of the sysfs
|
||||
file and read the new value or close the file and re-open it
|
||||
to read the value.
|
||||
|
||||
"edge" ... reads as either "none", "rising", "falling", or
|
||||
"both". Write these strings to select the signal edge(s)
|
||||
that will make poll(2) on the "value" file return.
|
||||
|
||||
This file exists only if the pin can be configured as an
|
||||
interrupt generating input pin.
|
||||
|
||||
"active_low" ... reads as either 0 (false) or 1 (true). Write
|
||||
any nonzero value to invert the value attribute both
|
||||
for reading and writing. Existing and subsequent
|
||||
poll(2) support configuration via the edge attribute
|
||||
for "rising" and "falling" edges will follow this
|
||||
setting.
|
||||
|
||||
GPIO controllers have paths like /sys/class/gpio/gpiochip42/ (for the
|
||||
controller implementing GPIOs starting at #42) and have the following
|
||||
read-only attributes:
|
||||
|
||||
/sys/class/gpio/gpiochipN/
|
||||
|
||||
"base" ... same as N, the first GPIO managed by this chip
|
||||
|
||||
"label" ... provided for diagnostics (not always unique)
|
||||
|
||||
"ngpio" ... how many GPIOs this manges (N to N + ngpio - 1)
|
||||
|
||||
Board documentation should in most cases cover what GPIOs are used for
|
||||
what purposes. However, those numbers are not always stable; GPIOs on
|
||||
a daughtercard might be different depending on the base board being used,
|
||||
or other cards in the stack. In such cases, you may need to use the
|
||||
gpiochip nodes (possibly in conjunction with schematics) to determine
|
||||
the correct GPIO number to use for a given signal.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Exporting from Kernel code
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
Kernel code can explicitly manage exports of GPIOs which have already been
|
||||
requested using gpio_request():
|
||||
|
||||
/* export the GPIO to userspace */
|
||||
int gpiod_export(struct gpio_desc *desc, bool direction_may_change);
|
||||
|
||||
/* reverse gpio_export() */
|
||||
void gpiod_unexport(struct gpio_desc *desc);
|
||||
|
||||
/* create a sysfs link to an exported GPIO node */
|
||||
int gpiod_export_link(struct device *dev, const char *name,
|
||||
struct gpio_desc *desc);
|
||||
|
||||
/* change the polarity of a GPIO node in sysfs */
|
||||
int gpiod_sysfs_set_active_low(struct gpio_desc *desc, int value);
|
||||
|
||||
After a kernel driver requests a GPIO, it may only be made available in
|
||||
the sysfs interface by gpiod_export(). The driver can control whether the
|
||||
signal direction may change. This helps drivers prevent userspace code
|
||||
from accidentally clobbering important system state.
|
||||
|
||||
This explicit exporting can help with debugging (by making some kinds
|
||||
of experiments easier), or can provide an always-there interface that's
|
||||
suitable for documenting as part of a board support package.
|
||||
|
||||
After the GPIO has been exported, gpiod_export_link() allows creating
|
||||
symlinks from elsewhere in sysfs to the GPIO sysfs node. Drivers can
|
||||
use this to provide the interface under their own device in sysfs with
|
||||
a descriptive name.
|
||||
|
||||
Drivers can use gpiod_sysfs_set_active_low() to hide GPIO line polarity
|
||||
differences between boards from user space. Polarity change can be done both
|
||||
before and after gpiod_export(), and previously enabled poll(2) support for
|
||||
either rising or falling edge will be reconfigured to follow this setting.
