KernelVersion: 2.6.27
Contact: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
Description:
As a Kconfig option, individual GPIO signals may be accessed from
userspace. GPIOs are only made available to userspace by an explicit
"export" operation. If a given GPIO is not claimed for use by
kernel code, it may be exported by userspace (and unexported later).
Kernel code may export it for complete or partial access.
GPIOs are identified as they are inside the kernel, using integers in
the range 0..INT_MAX. See Documentation/gpio.txt for more information.
/sys/class/gpio
/export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace
/unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel
/gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N
/value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs
/direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write: high, low
/gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO

If you want to use SELinux, chances are you will want
to use the distro-provided policies, or install the
latest reference policy release from
http://oss.tresys.com/projects/refpolicy
However, if you want to install a dummy policy for
testing, you can do using 'mdp' provided under
scripts/selinux. Note that this requires the selinux
userspace to be installed - in particular you will
need checkpolicy to compile a kernel, and setfiles and
fixfiles to label the filesystem.
1. Compile the kernel with selinux enabled.
2. Type 'make' to compile mdp.
3. Make sure that you are not running with
SELinux enabled and a real policy. If
you are, reboot with selinux disabled
before continuing.
4. Run install_policy.sh:
cd scripts/selinux
sh install_policy.sh
Step 4 will create a new dummy policy valid for your
kernel, with a single selinux user, role, and type.
It will compile the policy, will set your SELINUXTYPE to
dummy in /etc/selinux/config, install the compiled policy
as 'dummy', and relabel your filesystem.
