DESCRIPTION
     The libgpio library provides an interface to configure GPIO pins.  The
     library operates with a gpio_handle_t opaque type which can be created
     with gpio_open() or gpio_open_device().  When no more GPIO operations are
     needed, this handle can be destroyed with gpio_close().

     To get a list of all available pins, one can call gpio_pin_list().  This
     function takes a pointer to a gpio_config_t which is dynamically
     allocated.  This pointer should be freed with free(3) when it is no
     longer necessary.

     The function gpio_pin_config() retrieves the current configuration of a
     pin.  The pin number should be passed in via the g_pin variable which is
     part of the gpio_config_t structure.

     The function gpio_pin_set_name() sets the name used to describe a pin.

     The function gpio_pin_set_flags() configures a pin with the flags passed
     in by the gpio_config_t structure.  The pin number should also be passed
     in through the g_pin variable.  All other structure members will be
     ignored by this function.  The list of flags can be found in
     /usr/include/sys/gpio.h.

     The get or set the state of a GPIO pin, the functions gpio_pin_get() and
     gpio_pin_set() are available, respectively.  To toggle the state, use
     gpio_pin_toggle().

     The functions gpio_pin_low() and gpio_pin_high() are wrappers around
     gpio_pin_set().

     The functions gpio_pin_input(), gpio_pin_output(), gpio_pin_opendrain(),
     gpio_pin_pushpull(), gpio_pin_tristate(), gpio_pin_pullup(),
     gpio_pin_pulldown(), gpio_pin_invin(), gpio_pin_invout() and
     gpio_pin_pulsate() are wrappers around gpio_pin_set_flags().

EXAMPLES
     The following example shows how to configure pin 16 as output and then
     drive it high:

     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <err.h>
     #include <libgpio.h>

     gpio_handle_t handle;

     handle = gpio_open(0);
     if (handle == GPIO_INVALID_HANDLE)
             err(1, "gpio_open failed");
     gpio_pin_output(handle, 16);
     gpio_pin_high(handle, 16);
     gpio_close(handle);

     The following example shows how to get a configuration of a pin:

     gpio_config_t cfg;

     cfg.g_pin = 32;
     gpio_pin_config(handle, &cfg);

     The structure will contain the name of the pin and its flags.
