What does libgpiod enable?
Comment by Antonio Borneo (borneoa) - Wednesday, 10 March 2021, 13:50 GMT
It enables using bitbanging on available GPIO to emulate either JTAG or SWD.
This is surely valuable on embedded hosts that have available GPIOs, e.g. raspberry PI.
On standard x86 PCs I use a USB-to-GPIO adapter, e.g. DLN2 or a FTDI-SIO.
You can check the configuration file "tcl/interface/dln-2-gpiod.cfg" in the source code ("/usr/share/openocd/scripts/interface/dln-2-gpiod.cfg" in the package)

Actually OpenOCD can also use the SYSFS_GPIO for GPIO bitbanging, but that's deprecated and not enabled on Arch standard kernel.
