Hi Scott,
This is not for Altera PIO interface. I followed the gpio interface of
Linux, linux-2.6/Documentation/gpio.txt, and created a trivial bit
addressing gpio core, which uses fewer LE and doesn't required interrupt
disabled to write a bit. With this core, all output pins are
bidirectional and can be read. I used it to access i2c, one-wire, leds,
buttons and nand flash busy flag in nios2 linux. I didn't add irq
support, because input layer of linux can do debounce. Please look at
http://nioswiki.com/GPIO.
Best regards,
Thomas
