-=== Raspbian for Raspberry Pi ===+=== Build ===
  
-First install development tools and the kernel headers.+This module is built out of kernel and depends on the header files and tools found locally or may be cross compiled. 
 + 
 +For cross compilation, an example Makefile named `cross-compile.mk' is provided which should work for Raspberry PI OS as explained [[:tools:raspbian#kernel|here]]. 
 + 
 +If the linux source directory was cross compiled and then copied to the target system to build the module, `scripts.sh' is provided to rebuild certain kernel header scripts locally. This is needed because some scripts are actually binary files on the foreign architecture. 
 + 
 + 
 + 
 +=== Raspberry Pi OS=== 
 + 
 +First install development tools and the kernel headers when using a regular kernel.
 <code> <code>
 apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-headers apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-headers
 </code> </code>
  
-Now install the kernel module. +If you updated the kernel with rpi-update, install [[https://github.com/RPi-Distro/rpi-source|rpi-source]]
-<code> +
-hg clone http://hg.kewl.org/pub/gpio-bb +
-cd gpio-bb +
-make +
-make install +

-=== Void Linux for Raspberry Pi === +Now install headers for kernel installed with rpi-update.

-=== Bananian for Banana Pi ===+=== Armbian ===

-=== Modprobe ===+=== Configuration ===
 Update the modprobe configuration to create the gpio-bb device node when the module is loaded. For example, add the following to /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf Update the modprobe configuration to create the gpio-bb device node when the module is loaded. For example, add the following to /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf

-[[projects:gpio-bb:openwrt|GPIO bit-bang driver for OpenWRT]]+
  
-=== Raspbian for Raspberry Pi (obsolete) === +gpio-bb uses the kernel API to access pins, this API demands exclusive access to a pin per process. This means you cannot use gpio-bb and sysfs export simultaneously for a single pin.
