Subject: [Ksummit-discuss] [TECH TOPIC] GPIO API/ABI discussion
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2015 15:33:58 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150720203358.GA9205@deathstar> (raw)
I propose that there be a discussion as to the future direction
of the GPIO userspace interface.
Here are some topics in need of discussion:
- The continued use of the sysfs interface and possible enhancements
or restructuring.
- The possibility of a char interface and its implications.
- The introduction of gpio groups to userspace.
Here are some links to various discussions on the mailing list:
