Hello Santhosh Kumar S,

You can try the way as following:

1. Make sure the pad mux is GPIO ALT in dts.

2. Linux Userspace Naming Conversion

Linux gpio number = (gpio_bank - 1) * 32 + gpio_bit

For example, for gpiom_n, num=32 * (m-1) + n.

3. Input command to your Linux console

/* export gpio */

echo num > /sys/class/gpio/export

/* set the direction of gpio as output */

echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio[num]/direction

/* output low level */

echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio[num]/value

/* output high level */

echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio[num]/value

Best Regards,

Peter
