Access from userland is performed through .Xr ioctl 2 calls on these devices. .Pp Whether the layout of the GPIO device can be configured is subject to authorization by the .Xr kauth 9 framework. .Pp If for example .Xr secmodel_securelevel 9 is active, the layout of the GPIO device is defined at a securelevel less than 1, i.e. typically during system boot, and cannot be changed later. GPIO pins can be configured and given a symbolic name and device drivers that use GPIO pins can be attached to the .Nm device at a securelevel less than 1. All other pins will not be accessible once the runlevel has been raised. .Sh IOCTL INTERFACE The following structures and constants are defined in the .In sys/gpio.h header file: .Pp .Bl -tag -width XXXX -compact .It Dv GPIOINFO ( struct gpio_info ) Returns information about the GPIO controller in the .Fa gpio_info structure: .Bd -literal struct gpio_info { int gpio_npins; /* total number of pins available */ }; .Ed .Pp .It Dv GPIOREAD ( struct gpio_req ) Returns the input pin value in the .Fa gpio_pin_op structure: .Bd -literal #define GPIOMAXNAME 64 struct gpio_req { char gp_name[GPIOMAXNAME]; /* pin name */ int gp_pin; /* pin number */ int gp_value; /* value */ }; .Ed .Pp The .Fa gp_name or .Fa gp_pin field must be set before calling. .Pp .It Dv GPIOWRITE ( struct gpio_req ) Writes the output value to the pin. The value set in the .Fa gp_value field must be either .Dv GPIO_PIN_LOW (logical 0) or .Dv GPIO_PIN_HIGH (logical 1). On return, the .Fa gp_value field contains the old pin state. .Pp .It Dv GPIOTOGGLE ( struct gpio_req ) Toggles the pin output value, i.e. changes it to the opposite. .Fa gp_value field is ignored and on return contains the old pin state. .Pp .It Dv GPIOSET ( struct gpio_set ) Changes pin configuration flags with the new ones provided in the .Fa gpio_set structure: .Bd -literal #define GPIOMAXNAME 64 struct gpio_set { char gp_name[GPIOMAXNAME]; /* pin name */ int gp_pin; /* pin number */ int gp_caps; /* pin capabilities (ro) */ int gp_flags; /* pin configuration flags */ char gp_name2[GPIOMAXNAME]; /* new name */ }; .Ed .Pp The .Fa gp_flags field is a combination of the following flags: .Pp .Bl -tag -width GPIO_PIN_OPENDRAIN -compact .It Dv GPIO_PIN_INPUT input direction .It Dv GPIO_PIN_OUTPUT output direction .It Dv GPIO_PIN_INOUT bi-directional .It Dv GPIO_PIN_OPENDRAIN open-drain output .It Dv GPIO_PIN_PUSHPULL push-pull output .It Dv GPIO_PIN_TRISTATE output disabled .It Dv GPIO_PIN_PULLUP internal pull-up enabled .It Dv GPIO_PIN_PULLDOWN internal pull-down enabled .It Dv GPIO_PIN_INVIN invert input .It Dv GPIO_PIN_INVOUT invert output .It Dv GPIO_PIN_PULSATE pulsate output .It Dv GPIO_PIN_ALT0 - .It Dv GPIO_PIN_ALT7 select alternate pin function 0 to 7 .El .Pp Note that the GPIO controller may not support all of these flags. On return the .Fa gp_caps field contains flags that are supported. If no flags are specified, the pin configuration stays unchanged. .Pp Only GPIO pins that have been set using .Ar GPIOSET will be accessible at securelevels greater than 0. .Pp .It Dv GPIOUNSET ( struct gpio_set ) Unset the specified pin, i.e. clear its name and make it unaccessible at securelevels greater than 0. .Pp .It Dv GPIOATTACH ( struct gpio_attach ) Attach the device described in the .Fa gpio_attach structure on this gpio device. .Bd -literal struct gpio_attach { char ga_dvname[16]; /* device name */ int ga_offset; /* pin number */ uint32_t ga_mask; /* binary mask */ uint32_t ga_flags; /* driver dependent */ }; .Ed .Pp The .Xr drvctl 8 command can be used to detach a device from a gpio pin. .El .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width "/dev/gpiou" -compact .It /dev/gpio Ns Ar u GPIO device unit .Ar u file. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr ioctl 2 , .Xr drvctl 8 , .Xr gpioctl 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm device first appeared in .Ox 3.6 and .Nx 4.0 . .Sh AUTHORS .An -nosplit The .Nm driver was written by .An Alexander Yurchenko Aq Mt grange@openbsd.org . .Nm and was ported to .Nx by .An Jared D.
