How to use a GPIO(libgpiod) with gpioget/gpioset, on i.MX8Q as an example difference between gpioget and "cat /sys/class/gpio" in GPIO control:
gpioget :
This is a command-line utility provided by the libgpiod library. It is designed to interact with GPIO lines through the modern Linux GPIO character device interface ( /dev/gpiochipN ).
/sys/class/gpio :
This refers to the legacy sysfs interface for GPIO control in Linux. While widely used in the past, this interface has been officially deprecated in favor of the libgpiod character device interface since Linux kernel version 6.0 and later.
Below is an example of libgpiod tested on i.MX8Q-MEK, L6.12.3 BSP.
Device tree settings:
We use GPIO1-05 and GPIO1-06 in this example. can put GPIO pinctrls in a specific group like “gpio_test”, or under certain driver like “gpio-keys”
gpio_test: gpio-test {
pinctrl-names = "default", "sleep";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_gpio_test_default>;
pinctrl-1 = <&pinctrl_gpio_test_sleep>;
status = "okay";
};
gpio-keys {
compatible = "gpio-keys";
pinctrl-names = "default", "sleep";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_gpio_example_default>;
pinctrl-1 = <&pinctrl_gpio_example_sleep>;
key_wakeup2{
label = "wakeup_key";
gpios = <&lsio_gpio2 1 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
linux,code = ;
wakeup-source;
};

How to enable legacy GPIO SYSFS(default disabled on L6 kernel and above)

gpio: sysfs: Enforce character device
If users select sysfs support they get the character device
as well so that end-users cannot complain that they
"only have sysfs on my system". They should have the
character device at all times.
If someone is in so dire need of stripping out the
character device while still enabling the sysfs ABI they
can very well patch the kernel.
Also only show this obsolete option to expert users.

Say Y here to add the legacy sysfs interface for GPIOs.
To enable GPIO_SYSFS, from the patch. The best way is CONFIG_EXPERT = y, then enable CONFIG_GPIO_SYSFS=Y. not need to revert the patch.
SYSFS, as legacy interface for GPIO control in Linux. While widely used in the past, this interface has been officially deprecated in favor of the libgpiod character device interface since Linux kernel version 6.0 and later. i.MX Processors
