Usage: /usr/bin/gpioset [OPTIONS] <line=value>...
Set values of GPIO lines.
Lines are specified by name, or optionally by offset if the chip option
is provided.
Values may be '1' or '0', or equivalently 'active'/'inactive' or 'on'/'off'.
The line output state is maintained until the process exits, but after that
is not guaranteed.
Options:
--banner display a banner on successful startup
-b, --bias <bias> specify the line bias
Possible values: 'pull-down', 'pull-up', 'disabled'.
(default is to leave bias unchanged)
--by-name treat lines as names even if they would parse as an offset
-c, --chip <chip> restrict scope to a particular chip
-C, --consumer <name> consumer name applied to requested lines (default is 'gpioset')
-d, --drive <drive> specify the line drive mode
Possible values: 'push-pull', 'open-drain', 'open-source'.
(default is 'push-pull')
-h, --help display this help and exit
-i, --interactive set the lines then wait for additional set commands
Use the 'help' command at the interactive prompt to get help
for the supported commands.
-l, --active-low treat the line as active low
-p, --hold-period <period>
the minimum time period to hold lines at the requested values
-s, --strict abort if requested line names are not unique
-t, --toggle <period>[,period]...
toggle the line(s) after the specified period(s)
If the last period is 0 then gpioset exits else the sequence repeats.
--unquoted don't quote line names
-v, --version output version information and exit
-z, --daemonize set values then detach from the controlling terminal
Chips:
A GPIO chip may be identified by number, name, or path.
e.g. '0', 'gpiochip0', and '/dev/gpiochip0' all refer to the same chip.
Periods:
Periods are taken as milliseconds unless units are specified. e.g. 10us.
Supported units are 'm', 's', 'ms', and 'us' for minutes, seconds, milliseconds and
microseconds respectively.
*Note*
It should not be assumed that a line will retain its state after gpioset exits.
When a process exits, any GPIO lines it has requested are automatically released.
Once released, the state of a line may be modified by the kernel or another process.
To guarantee the requested value, by default gpioset does not exit.
