This is a Proof-of-Concept for a GPIO backend, which allows to connect
virtual GPIOs on the guest to physical GPIOs on the host. This allows
the guest to control any external device connected to the physical
GPIOs.
Features and limitations:
- The backend uses libgpiod on Linux,
- For now only GPIO outputs are supported,
- The frontend is currently hardcoded to be the PL061 GPIO controller
on the arm virtual machine. As the generic qdev_connect_gpio_out()
API call is used, any virtual GPIO controller could do, though.
Future work:
- Adding a user-instantiable GPIO frontend (or is any of the existing
virtualized GPIO controllers already user-instantiable?),
- Proper frontend/backend interface using IDs,
- Adding a QEMU internal API for controlling multiple GPIOs at once,
- Defining an API for GPIO paravirtualization,
- ...
Example:
To connect the first three GPIOs of the virtual PL061 GPIO controller
to the GPIOs controlling the three LEDs on the Renesas Salvator-X(S)
board, add the following to your qemu command invocation:
-gpiodev e6055400.gpio,vgpios=0:1:2,gpios=11:12:13
After that, the guest can cycle through the three LEDs using:
for i in $(seq 504 506); do echo $i > /sys/class/gpio/export; done
while /bin/true; do
for i in $(seq 504 506); do
echo high > /sys/class/gpio/gpio$i/direction
sleep 1
echo low > /sys/class/gpio/gpio$i/direction
done
done
