+Description:
+		The character device files /dev/gpiochip* are the interface
+		between GPIO chips and userspace.
+
+		The ioctl(2)-based ABI is defined and documented in
+		[include/uapi]<linux/gpio.h>.
+
+		The following file operations are supported:
+
+		open(2)
+		Currently the only useful flags are O_RDWR.
+
+		ioctl(2)
+		Initiate various actions.
+		See the inline documentation in [include/uapi]<linux/gpio.h>
+		for descriptions of all ioctls.
+
+		close(2)
+		Stops and free up the I/O contexts that was associated
+		with the file descriptor.
+
