Hardware GPIO-IRQ

---

ODROID-C1 supports the GPIO interrupt of Edge trigger.
The maximum number of interrupt is limited to 8 when you use the falling(Low) or rising(High) edge trigger.
If you use the Both (rising and falling together) edge triggers, the maximum number is only 4.

You must use the Linux 3.10.79-87 June or higher to use the GPIO interrupt in the user-land.

To use the GPIO Interrupt in the User space, you must export the GPIO and add the Trigger option in Edge parameter.

GPIO SYSFS node is accessible via /sys/class/aml_gpio/. The access method is exactly same as /sys/class/gpio.

echo [GPIO Number(Refer expansion_connectors )] > /sys/class/aml_gpio/export

e.g) GPIOY.BIT3 Export (Pin Number 7)

echo 83 > /sys/class/aml_gpio/export

This C example code shows the status of GPIO interrupts in the User Space.
This example uses Both(rising + falling) edges on the GPIO Pin 7.
