+Raspberry Pi GPIO expander
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The Raspberry Pi 3 GPIO expander is controlled by the VC4 firmware. The
|
|
|
+firmware exposes a mailbox interface that allows the ARM core to control the
|
|
|
+GPIO lines on the expander.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The Raspberry Pi GPIO expander node must be a child node of the Raspberry Pi
|
|
|
+firmware node.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Required properties:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- compatible : Should be "raspberrypi,firmware-gpio"
|
|
|
+- gpio-controller : Marks the device node as a gpio controller
|
|
|
+- #gpio-cells : Should be two. The first cell is the pin number, and
|
|
|
+ the second cell is used to specify the gpio polarity:
|
|
|
+ 0 = active high
|
|
|
+ 1 = active low
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Example:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+firmware: firmware-rpi {
|
|
|
+ compatible = "raspberrypi,bcm2835-firmware";
|
|
|
+ mboxes = <&mailbox>;
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ expgpio: gpio {
|
|
|
+ compatible = "raspberrypi,firmware-gpio";
|
|
|
+ gpio-controller;
|
|
|
+ #gpio-cells = <2>;
|
|
|
+ };
|
|
|
+};
