Programming GPIO on Fedora

Project Description

A guide and some simple projects that run on different boards on Fedora.

Package appropriate libraries and provide instructions on interfacing devices to the BeagleBoard/BeagleBone and PandaBoard devices using the GPIO/SPI/I2C interfaces.

Expected outcome: appropriate libraries for GPIO/SPI/I2C support will be present in Fedora, and documentation page will be available outlining how to use these features.

Skills required: packaging, testing, writing

Maximum number of participants: 2 (one per board)

Resources: Chris Tyler (ctyler), Peter Robinson (pbrobinson)

Project Details

Step 1: Look for libraries for the GPIO and I2C interfaces.

Find libraries related to GIPO. Currently, we have the source package for the Raspberry PI GPIO.

Get the hardware (Pandaboard device)

Step 2: Test the libraries with panda board.

Step 3: Write final documentation.

Project Plan

Tracking mechanism (bugzilla, trac, github, ...):

Key contacts:

Goals for each release and plans for reaching those goals:

0.0 Plan

We are going to use the Pandaboard device for the I2C/GPIO/SPI interfaces.

Luis Fuentes  : Package appropriate libraries for I2C
Jiecheng Qiu  : Package appropriate libraries for GPIO


  • 0.1 Research the library of GPIO/I2C and package it on Pandaboard with Fedora System
  • 0.2 Test it and make it done


  • 0.3 Finalize the package release and finish the documentation

Links/Bugs/Tracking

Here is a page that I've recently started writing about GPIO/Serial/I2C/SPI on the Pandaboard: http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Raspberry_Pi_Interfacing

This is an unfinished project started by a CDOT research assistant for interfacing a motion sensor to a Pandaboard: http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Motion_Sensor_Interfacing_for_Panda_Board_based_Dash_Board_System
