The .Ar mask should have 1 or 2 bits set, indicating which pins offset from the base pin should be used .Pq 0 .. 31 . Pin configurations are discussed below. .Pp The .Ar flag locator modifies the pin configuraiton: .Bl -tag -width "XXXXXXXX" .It Dv 0x01 The PPS ASSERT signal should be triggered on the negative .Pq falling edge of the assert pin. The default is to trigger on the positive .Pq rising edge of the pin. .It Dv 0x02 By default, .Nm will use double-edge triggering when only a single pin is specified and the underlying GPIO hardware supports it. This flag disables the use of double-edge triggering. .El .Pp If a single pin is specified, .Nm uses double-edge triggering to support ASSERT and CLEAR PPS signals. If the underlying GPIO hardware does not support double-edge triggering, or if this feature is diabled in the .Ar flag locator, then only ASSERT will be signaled on the specified edge. .Pp If two pins are specified, the first pin is used to trigger the ASSERT signal and the second pin is used to trigger the CLEAR signal. The ASSERT pin's trigger edge is specified by by the .Ar flag locator, and the CLEAR pin triggers on the opposite edge. This allows ASSERT and CLEAR signals to be triggered even if the underlying GPIO hardware does not support double-edge triggering. In this scenario, both GPIO pins would be connected in parallel to the device sending the 1PPS signals. .Pp The .Ar offset , .Ar mask , and .Ar flag locators can also be specified when .Nm is attached at runtime using the .Dv GPIOATTACH .Xr ioctl 2 on the .Xr gpio 4 device. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr gpio 4 , .Xr drvctl 8 , .Xr gpioctl 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm driver first appeared in .Nx 9.0 . .Sh AUTHORS .An -nosplit The .Nm driver was written by .An Brad Spencer Aq Mt brad@anduin.eldar.org .
