Hello Jan,

Duc Doan worked on that topic during his GSoC project last year:
  https://github.com/dtbpkmte/GSoC-2022-RTEMS
  https://github.com/dtbpkmte/GSoC-2022-RTEMS/commit/0aec268f1209c
  https://medium.com/@dtbpkmte

The results looked quite interesting (even if some functions were still missing like switching GPIO groups). But at the end there was a problem with the Apache license of the STM libraries so that the new API would have been left without a reference implementation.
The API in the current bsp/gpio.h is designed to match a certain GPIO 
hardware module structure. It is currently implemented only on raspberry 
and beagle. For every GPIO module that doesn't match the structure, it 
adds quite some overhead. For example on the i.MX I tried to use it and 
gave up soon because mapping the structure would have wasted a lot of 
CPU cycles.
Best regards

Christian

We now found this general GPIO API here:

Is this the current one to use when implementing a new GPIO driver?

Subject: New GPIO-API merged?

Hello everyone,

Alex' patch reminded me that there was work done related a new general
GPIO-API.
Has that been finished? I tried to find the corresponding header files, but
couldn't.
So, I was wondering what the current status is.

Best regards,

     Jan
