Tom Rini53633a82024-02-29 12:33:36 -05001Raspberry Pi GPIO expander
2
3The Raspberry Pi 3 GPIO expander is controlled by the VC4 firmware. The
4firmware exposes a mailbox interface that allows the ARM core to control the
5GPIO lines on the expander.
6
7The Raspberry Pi GPIO expander node must be a child node of the Raspberry Pi
8firmware node.
9
10Required properties:
11
12- compatible : Should be "raspberrypi,firmware-gpio"
13- gpio-controller : Marks the device node as a gpio controller
14- #gpio-cells : Should be two. The first cell is the pin number, and
15 the second cell is used to specify the gpio polarity:
16 0 = active high
17 1 = active low
18
19Example:
20
21firmware: firmware-rpi {
22 compatible = "raspberrypi,bcm2835-firmware";
23 mboxes = <&mailbox>;
24
25 expgpio: gpio {
26 compatible = "raspberrypi,firmware-gpio";
27 gpio-controller;
28 #gpio-cells = <2>;
29 };
30};
