OWNERS: update

It's been quite some time since I've helped maintain gpio-monitor in any
meaningful way, and I don't intend to going forward, so it is time to
drop my name from the list.

I'm happy to help debug, provide historical insight or help out in some
other way; however, and will try to make the time if anyone reaches out.

phosphor-gpio-monitor

This daemon accepts a command line parameter for monitoring single gpio line and take action if requested. This implementation uses GPIO keys and only supports monitoring single GPIO line, for multiple lines, user has to run this daemon seperately for each gpio line.

phosphor-multi-gpio-monitor

This daemon accepts command line parameter as a well-defined GPIO configuration file in json format to monitor list of gpios from config file and take action defined in config based on gpio state change. It uses libgpiod library.

Difference

New implementation (phosphor-multi-gpio-monitor) provides multiple gpio line monitoring in single instance of phosphor-multi-gpio-monitor running. It is very easy to add list of gpios into JSON config file and it also supports of GPIO line by name defined in kernel.

Configuration

There is a phosphor-multi-gpio-monitor.json file that defines details of GPIOs which is required to be monitored. This file can be replaced with a platform specific configuration file via bbappend.

Following are fields in json file

  1. Name: Name of gpio for reference.
  2. LineName: this is the line name defined in device tree for specific gpio
  3. GpioNum: GPIO offset, this field is optional if LineName is defined.
  4. ChipId: This is device name either offset ("0") or complete gpio device ("gpiochip0"). This field is not required if LineName is defined.
  5. EventMon: Event of gpio to be monitored. This can be "FALLING", "RISING" OR "BOTH". Default value for this is "BOTH".
  6. Target: This is an optional systemd service which will get started after triggering event. A journal entry will be added for every event occurs irrespective of this definition.
  7. Continue: This is a optional flag and if it is defined as true then this gpio will be monitored continously. If not defined then monitoring of this gpio will stop after first event.

Sample config file

[ { "Name": "PowerButton", "LineName": "POWER_BUTTON", "GpioNum": 34, "ChipId": "gpiochip0", "EventMon": "BOTH", "Continue": true }, { "Name": "PowerGood", "LineName": "PS_PWROK", "EventMon": "FALLING", "Continue": false }, { "Name": "SystemReset", "GpioNum": 46, "ChipId": "0" } ]
