NAME

       pigpiod_if - A C library to interface to the pigpio daemon.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <pigpiod_if.h>

       gcc -Wall -pthread -o prog prog.c -lpigpiod_if -lrt

        ./prog

DESCRIPTION

       THIS LIBRARY IS DEPRECATED.  NEW CODE SHOULD BE WRITTEN TO USE THE MORE VERSATILE
       pigpiod_if2 LIBRARY.

       pigpiod_if is a C library for the Raspberry which allows control of the GPIO via the
       socket interface to the pigpio daemon.

   Features
       o hardware timed PWM on any of GPIO 0-31

       o hardware timed servo pulses on any of GPIO 0-31

       o callbacks when any of GPIO 0-31 change state

       o callbacks at timed intervals

       o reading/writing all of the GPIO in a bank as one operation

       o individually setting GPIO modes, reading and writing

       o notifications when any of GPIO 0-31 change state

       o the construction of output waveforms with microsecond timing

       o rudimentary permission control over GPIO

       o a simple interface to start and stop new threads

       o I2C, SPI, and serial link wrappers

       o creating and running scripts on the pigpio daemon

   GPIO
       ALL GPIO are identified by their Broadcom number.

   Notes
       The PWM and servo pulses are timed using the DMA and PWM/PCM peripherals.

   Usage
       Include <pigpiod_if.h> in your source files.

       Assuming your source is in prog.c use the following command to build

       gcc -Wall -pthread -o prog prog.c -lpigpiod_if -lrt

       to run make sure the pigpio daemon is running

       sudo pigpiod

        ./prog # sudo is not required to run programs linked to pigpiod_if

       For examples see x_pigpiod_if.c within the pigpio archive file.

   Notes
       All the functions which return an int return < 0 on error

       int set_PWM_dutycycle(unsigned user_gpio, unsigned dutycycle)

           Start (non-zero dutycycle) or stop (0) PWM pulses on the GPIO.

           user_gpio: 0-31.
           dutycycle: 0-range (range defaults to 255).

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, PI_BAD_DUTYCYCLE, or PI_NOT_PERMITTED.
           Notes

           For normal PWM the dutycycle will be out of the defined range for the GPIO (see
           get_PWM_range).

           If a hardware clock is active on the GPIO the reported dutycycle will be 500000 (500k)
           out of 1000000 (1M).

           If hardware PWM is active on the GPIO the reported dutycycle will be out of a 1000000
           (1M).

       int set_PWM_range(unsigned user_gpio, unsigned range)

           Set the range of PWM values to be used on the GPIO.

           user_gpio: 0-31.

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, PI_BAD_DUTYRANGE, or PI_NOT_PERMITTED.

           Notes

           If PWM is currently active on the GPIO its dutycycle will be scaled to reflect the new
           range.

           The real range, the number of steps between fully off and fully on for each of the 18
           available GPIO frequencies is

             25(#1),    50(#2),   100(#3),   125(#4),    200(#5),    250(#6),
            400(#7),   500(#8),   625(#9),   800(#10),  1000(#11),  1250(#12),
           2000(#13), 2500(#14), 4000(#15), 5000(#16), 10000(#17), 20000(#18)

           The real value set by set_PWM_range is (dutycycle * real range) / range.

       int get_PWM_range(unsigned user_gpio)

           Get the range of PWM values being used on the GPIO.

           user_gpio: 0-31.

           Returns the dutycycle range used for the GPIO if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO.

           If a hardware clock or hardware PWM is active on the GPIO the reported range will be
           1000000 (1M).

       int get_PWM_real_range(unsigned user_gpio)

           Get the real underlying range of PWM values being used on the GPIO.

           user_gpio: 0-31.

           Returns the real range used for the GPIO if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO.

           If a hardware clock is active on the GPIO the reported real range will be 1000000
           (1M).

           If hardware PWM is active on the GPIO the reported real range will be approximately
           250M divided by the set PWM frequency.

       int set_PWM_frequency(unsigned user_gpio, unsigned frequency)

           Set the frequency (in Hz) of the PWM to be used on the GPIO.

           user_gpio: 0-31.
           frequency: >=0 (Hz).

           Returns the numerically closest frequency if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO or
           PI_NOT_PERMITTED.

           If PWM is currently active on the GPIO it will be switched off and then back on at the
           new frequency.

           Each GPIO can be independently set to one of 18 different PWM frequencies.

           The selectable frequencies depend upon the sample rate which may be 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, or
           10 microseconds (default 5).  The sample rate is set when the pigpio daemon is
           started.

           The frequencies for each sample rate are:

                                  Hertz

                  1: 40000 20000 10000 8000 5000 4000 2500 2000 1600

           For normal PWM the frequency will be that defined for the GPIO by set_PWM_frequency.

           If a hardware clock is active on the GPIO the reported frequency will be that set by
           hardware_clock.

           If hardware PWM is active on the GPIO the reported frequency will be that set by
           hardware_PWM.

           Returns the frequency (in hertz) used for the GPIO if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO.

       int set_servo_pulsewidth(unsigned user_gpio, unsigned pulsewidth)

           Start (500-2500) or stop (0) servo pulses on the GPIO.

            user_gpio: 0-31.
           pulsewidth: 0 (off), 500 (anti-clockwise) - 2500 (clockwise).

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, PI_BAD_PULSEWIDTH or PI_NOT_PERMITTED.

           The selected pulsewidth will continue to be transmitted until changed by a subsequent
           call to set_servo_pulsewidth.

           The pulsewidths supported by servos varies and should probably be determined by
           experiment. A value of 1500 should always be safe and represents the mid-point of
           rotation.

           You can DAMAGE a servo if you command it to move beyond its limits.

           OTHER UPDATE RATES:

           This function updates servos at 50Hz.  If you wish to use a different update frequency
           you will have to use the PWM functions.

           Update Rate (Hz)     50   100  200  400  500
           1E6/Hz            20000 10000 5000 2500 2000

           Firstly set the desired PWM frequency using set_PWM_frequency.

           Then set the PWM range using set_PWM_range to 1E6/Hz.  Doing this allows you to use
           units of microseconds when setting the servo pulsewidth.

           E.g. If you want to update a servo connected to GPIO 25 at 400Hz

           set_PWM_frequency(25, 400);
           set_PWM_range(25, 2500);

           Thereafter use the set_PWM_dutycycle function to move the servo, e.g.
           set_PWM_dutycycle(25, 1500) will set a 1500 us pulse.

       int get_servo_pulsewidth(unsigned user_gpio)

           Return the servo pulsewidth in use on a GPIO.

           user_gpio: 0-31.

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO or PI_NOT_SERVO_GPIO.

       int notify_open(void)

           Get a free notification handle.

           Returns a handle greater than or equal to zero if OK, otherwise PI_NO_HANDLE.

           A notification is a method for being notified of GPIO state changes via a pipe.

           Pipes are only accessible from the local machine so this function serves no purpose if
           you are using the library from a remote machine.  The in-built (socket) notifications
           provided by callback should be used instead.

           Notifications for handle x will be available at the pipe named /dev/pigpiox (where x
           is the handle number).  E.g. if the function returns 15 then the notifications must be
           read from /dev/pigpio15.

       int notify_begin(unsigned handle, uint32_t bits)

           Start notifications on a previously opened handle.

           handle: 0-31 (as returned by notify_open)
             bits: a mask indicating the GPIO to be notified.

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_HANDLE.

           The notification sends state changes for each GPIO whose corresponding bit in bits is
           set.

           Each notification occupies 12 bytes in the fifo as follows:

           typedef struct
           {
              uint16_t seqno;
              uint16_t flags;
              uint32_t tick;
              uint32_t level;
           } gpioReport_t;

           seqno: starts at 0 each time the handle is opened and then increments by one for each
           report.

           flags: two flags are defined, PI_NTFY_FLAGS_WDOG and PI_NTFY_FLAGS_ALIVE.

           PI_NTFY_FLAGS_WDOG, if bit 5 is set then bits 0-4 of the flags indicate a GPIO which
           has had a watchdog timeout.

           PI_NTFY_FLAGS_ALIVE, if bit 6 is set this indicates a keep alive signal on the
           pipe/socket and is sent once a minute in the absence of other notification activity.

           tick: the number of microseconds since system boot.  It wraps around after 1h12m.

           level: indicates the level of each GPIO.  If bit 1<<x is set then GPIO x is high.

       int notify_pause(unsigned handle)

           Pause notifications on a previously opened handle.

           handle: 0-31 (as returned by notify_open)

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_HANDLE.

           Notifications for the handle are suspended until notify_begin is called again.

       int notify_close(unsigned handle)

           Stop notifications on a previously opened handle and release the handle for reuse.

           handle: 0-31 (as returned by notify_open)

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_HANDLE.

       int set_watchdog(unsigned user_gpio, unsigned timeout)

           Sets a watchdog for a GPIO.

           user_gpio: 0-31.
             timeout: 0-60000.

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO or PI_BAD_WDOG_TIMEOUT.

           The watchdog is nominally in milliseconds.

           Only one watchdog may be registered per GPIO.

           The watchdog may be cancelled by setting timeout to 0.

           Once a watchdog has been started callbacks for the GPIO will be triggered every
           timeout interval after the last GPIO activity.

           The callback will receive the special level PI_TIMEOUT.

       int set_glitch_filter(unsigned user_gpio, unsigned steady)

           Sets a glitch filter on a GPIO.

           Level changes on the GPIO are not reported unless the level has been stable for at
           least steady microseconds.  The level is then reported.  Level changes of less than
           steady microseconds are ignored.

           user_gpio: 0-31
              steady: 0-300000

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, or PI_BAD_FILTER.

           This filter affects the GPIO samples returned to callbacks set up with callback,
           callback_ex and wait_for_edge.

           It does not affect levels read by gpio_read, read_bank_1, or read_bank_2.  Each
           (stable) edge will be timestamped steady microseconds after it was first detected.

       int set_noise_filter(unsigned user_gpio, unsigned steady, unsigned active)

           Sets a noise filter on a GPIO.

           Level changes on the GPIO are ignored until a level which has been stable for steady
           microseconds is detected.  Level changes on the GPIO are then reported for active
           microseconds after which the process repeats.

           user_gpio: 0-31
              steady: 0-300000
              active: 0-1000000

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, or PI_BAD_FILTER.

           This filter affects the GPIO samples returned to callbacks set up with callback,
           callback_ex and wait_for_edge.

           It does not affect levels read by gpio_read, read_bank_1, or read_bank_2.

           Level changes before and after the active period may be reported.  Your software must
           be designed to cope with such reports.

       uint32_t read_bank_1(void)

           Read the levels of the bank 1 GPIO (GPIO 0-31).

           The returned 32 bit integer has a bit set if the corresponding GPIO is logic 1.  GPIO
           n has bit value (1<<n).

       uint32_t read_bank_2(void)

           Read the levels of the bank 2 GPIO (GPIO 32-53).

           The returned 32 bit integer has a bit set if the corresponding GPIO is logic 1.  GPIO
           n has bit value (1<<(n-32)).

       int clear_bank_1(uint32_t bits)

           Clears GPIO 0-31 if the corresponding bit in bits is set.

           bits: a bit mask with 1 set if the corresponding GPIO is
                 to be cleared.

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_SOME_PERMITTED.

           A status of PI_SOME_PERMITTED indicates that the user is not allowed to write to one
           or more of the GPIO.

       int clear_bank_2(uint32_t bits)

           Clears GPIO 32-53 if the corresponding bit (0-21) in bits is set.

           bits: a bit mask with 1 set if the corresponding GPIO is
                 to be cleared.

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_SOME_PERMITTED.

           A status of PI_SOME_PERMITTED indicates that the user is not allowed to write to one
           or more of the GPIO.

       int set_bank_1(uint32_t bits)

           Sets GPIO 0-31 if the corresponding bit in bits is set.

           bits: a bit mask with 1 set if the corresponding GPIO is
                 to be set.

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_SOME_PERMITTED.

           A status of PI_SOME_PERMITTED indicates that the user is not allowed to write to one
           or more of the GPIO.

       int set_bank_2(uint32_t bits)

           Sets GPIO 32-53 if the corresponding bit (0-21) in bits is set.

           bits: a bit mask with 1 set if the corresponding GPIO is
                 to be set.

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_SOME_PERMITTED.

           A status of PI_SOME_PERMITTED indicates that the user is not allowed to write to one
           or more of the GPIO.

       int hardware_clock(unsigned gpio, unsigned clkfreq)

           Starts a hardware clock on a GPIO at the specified frequency.  Frequencies above 30MHz
           are unlikely to work.

                gpio: see description
           frequency: 0 (off) or 4689-250000000 (250M)

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_NOT_PERMITTED, PI_BAD_GPIO, PI_NOT_HCLK_GPIO,
           PI_BAD_HCLK_FREQ,or PI_BAD_HCLK_PASS.

           The same clock is available on multiple GPIO.  The latest frequency setting will be
           used by all GPIO which share a clock.

           The GPIO must be one of the following.

           4   clock 0  All models
           5   clock 1  All models but A and B (reserved for system use)
           6   clock 2  All models but A and B
           20  clock 0  All models but A and B
           21  clock 1  All models but A and Rev.2 B (reserved for system use)

           32  clock 0  Compute module only
           34  clock 0  Compute module only
           42  clock 1  Compute module only (reserved for system use)
           43  clock 2  Compute module only
           44  clock 1  Compute module only (reserved for system use)

           Access to clock 1 is protected by a password as its use will likely crash the Pi.  The
           password is given by or'ing 0x5A000000 with the GPIO number.

       int hardware_PWM(unsigned gpio, unsigned PWMfreq, uint32_t PWMduty)

           Starts hardware PWM on a GPIO at the specified frequency and dutycycle.  Frequencies
           above 30MHz are unlikely to work.

           NOTE: Any waveform started by wave_send_once, wave_send_repeat, or wave_chain will be
           cancelled.

           This function is only valid if the pigpio main clock is PCM.  The main clock defaults
           to PCM but may be overridden when the pigpio daemon is started (option -t).

              gpio: see descripton
           PWMfreq: 0 (off) or 1-125000000 (125M)
           PWMduty: 0 (off) to 1000000 (1M)(fully on)

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_NOT_PERMITTED, PI_BAD_GPIO, PI_NOT_HPWM_GPIO,
           PI_BAD_HPWM_DUTY, PI_BAD_HPWM_FREQ, or PI_HPWM_ILLEGAL.

           The same PWM channel is available on multiple GPIO.  The latest frequency and
           dutycycle setting will be used by all GPIO which share a PWM channel.

           The GPIO must be one of the following.

           12  PWM channel 0  All models but A and B
           13  PWM channel 1  All models but A and B
           18  PWM channel 0  All models
           19  PWM channel 1  All models but A and B

           40  PWM channel 0  Compute module only
           41  PWM channel 1  Compute module only
           45  PWM channel 1  Compute module only
           52  PWM channel 0  Compute module only
           53  PWM channel 1  Compute module only

       uint32_t get_current_tick(void)

           Gets the current system tick.

           Tick is the number of microseconds since system boot.

           As tick is an unsigned 32 bit quantity it wraps around after 2**32 microseconds, which
           is approximately 1 hour 12 minutes.

       uint32_t get_hardware_revision(void)

           Get the Pi's hardware revision number.

           The hardware revision is the last few characters on the Revision line of
           /proc/cpuinfo.

           If the hardware revision can not be found or is not a valid hexadecimal number the
           function returns 0.

           The revision number can be used to determine the assignment of GPIO to pins (see
           gpio).

           There are at least three types of board.

           Type 1 boards have hardware revision numbers of 2 and 3.

           Type 2 boards have hardware revision numbers of 4, 5, 6, and 15.

           Type 3 boards have hardware revision numbers of 16 or greater.

       uint32_t get_pigpio_version(void)

           Returns the pigpio version.

       int wave_clear(void)

           This function clears all waveforms and any data added by calls to the wave_add_*
           functions.

           Returns 0 if OK.

       int wave_add_new(void)

           This function starts a new empty waveform.  You wouldn't normally need to call this
           function as it is automatically called after a waveform is created with the
           wave_create function.

           Returns 0 if OK.

       int wave_add_generic(unsigned numPulses, gpioPulse_t *pulses)

           This function adds a number of pulses to the current waveform.

           numPulses: the number of pulses.
              pulses: an array of pulses.

           Returns the new total number of pulses in the current waveform if OK, otherwise
           PI_TOO_MANY_PULSES.

           The pulses are interleaved in time order within the existing waveform (if any).

           Merging allows the waveform to be built in parts, that is the settings for GPIO#1 can
           be added, and then GPIO#2 etc.

           If the added waveform is intended to start after or within the existing waveform then
           the first pulse should consist solely of a delay.

       int wave_add_serial(unsigned user_gpio, unsigned baud, unsigned data_bits, unsigned
       stop_bits, unsigned offset, unsigned numBytes, char *str)

           This function adds a waveform representing serial data to the existing waveform (if
           any).  The serial data starts offset microseconds from the start of the waveform.

           user_gpio: 0-31.
                baud: 50-1000000
           data_bits: number of data bits (1-32)
           stop_bits: number of stop half bits (2-8)
              offset: >=0
            numBytes: >=1
                 str: an array of chars.

           Returns the new total number of pulses in the current waveform if OK, otherwise
           PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, PI_BAD_WAVE_BAUD, PI_BAD_DATABITS, PI_BAD_STOP_BITS,
           PI_TOO_MANY_CHARS, PI_BAD_SER_OFFSET, or PI_TOO_MANY_PULSES.

           NOTES:

           The serial data is formatted as one start bit, data_bits data bits, and stop_bits/2
           stop bits.

           It is legal to add serial data streams with different baud rates to the same waveform.

           numBytes is the number of bytes of data in str.

           The bytes required for each character depend upon data_bits.

           For data_bits 1-8 there will be one byte per character.
           For data_bits 9-16 there will be two bytes per character.
           For data_bits 17-32 there will be four bytes per character.

       int wave_create(void)

           This function creates a waveform from the data provided by the prior calls to the
           wave_add_* functions.  Upon success a wave id greater than or equal to 0 is returned,
           otherwise PI_EMPTY_WAVEFORM, PI_TOO_MANY_CBS, PI_TOO_MANY_OOL, or PI_NO_WAVEFORM_ID.

           The data provided by the wave_add_* functions is consumed by this function.

           As many waveforms may be created as there is space available.  The wave id is passed
           to wave_send_* to specify the waveform to transmit.

           Normal usage would be

           Step 1. wave_clear to clear all waveforms and added data.

           Step 2. wave_add_* calls to supply the waveform data.

           Step 3. wave_create to create the waveform and get a unique id

           Repeat steps 2 and 3 as needed.

           Step 4. wave_send_* with the id of the waveform to transmit.

           A waveform comprises one or more pulses.  Each pulse consists of a gpioPulse_t
           structure.

           typedef struct
           {
              uint32_t gpioOn;
              uint32_t gpioOff;
              uint32_t usDelay;
           } gpioPulse_t;

           The fields specify

           1) the GPIO to be switched on at the start of the pulse.
           2) the GPIO to be switched off at the start of the pulse.
           3) the delay in microseconds before the next pulse.

           Any or all the fields can be zero.  It doesn't make any sense to set all the fields to
           zero (the pulse will be ignored).

           When a waveform is started each pulse is executed in order with the specified delay
           between the pulse and the next.

           Returns the new waveform id if OK, otherwise PI_EMPTY_WAVEFORM, PI_NO_WAVEFORM_ID,
           PI_TOO_MANY_CBS, or PI_TOO_MANY_OOL.

       int wave_delete(unsigned wave_id)

           This function deletes the waveform with id wave_id.

           wave_id: >=0, as returned by wave_create.

           Wave ids are allocated in order, 0, 1, 2, etc.

           The wave is flagged for deletion.  The resources used by the wave will only be reused
           when either of the following apply.

           - all waves with higher numbered wave ids have been deleted or have been flagged for
           deletion.

           - a new wave is created which uses exactly the same resources as the current wave (see
           the C source for gpioWaveCreate for details).

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_WAVE_ID.

       int wave_send_once(unsigned wave_id)

           This function transmits the waveform with id wave_id.  The waveform is sent once.

           NOTE: Any hardware PWM started by hardware_PWM will be cancelled.

           wave_id: >=0, as returned by wave_create.

           Returns the number of DMA control blocks in the waveform if OK, otherwise
           PI_BAD_WAVE_ID, or PI_BAD_WAVE_MODE.

       int wave_send_repeat(unsigned wave_id)

           This function transmits the waveform with id wave_id.  The waveform cycles until
           cancelled (either by the sending of a new waveform or by wave_tx_stop).

           NOTE: Any hardware PWM started by hardware_PWM will be cancelled.

           wave_id: >=0, as returned by wave_create.

           Returns the number of DMA control blocks in the waveform if OK, otherwise
           PI_BAD_WAVE_ID, or PI_BAD_WAVE_MODE.

       int wave_chain(char *buf, unsigned bufSize)

           This function transmits a chain of waveforms.

           NOTE: Any hardware PWM started by hardware_PWM will be cancelled.

           The waves to be transmitted are specified by the contents of buf which contains an
           ordered list of wave_ids and optional command codes and related data.

               buf: pointer to the wave_ids and optional command codes
           bufSize: the number of bytes in buf

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_CHAIN_NESTING, PI_CHAIN_LOOP_CNT, PI_BAD_CHAIN_LOOP,
           PI_BAD_CHAIN_CMD, PI_CHAIN_COUNTER, PI_BAD_CHAIN_DELAY, PI_CHAIN_TOO_BIG, or
           PI_BAD_WAVE_ID.

           Each wave is transmitted in the order specified.  A wave may occur multiple times per
           chain.

           A blocks of waves may be transmitted multiple times by using the loop commands. The
           block is bracketed by loop start and end commands.  Loops may be nested.

           Delays between waves may be added with the delay command.

           The following command codes are supported:

           Name           Cmd & Data   Meaning
           Loop Start     255 0        Identify start of a wave block
           Loop Repeat    255 1 x y    loop x + y*256 times
           Delay          255 2 x y    delay x + y*256 microseconds
           Loop Forever   255 3        loop forever

           If present Loop Forever must be the last entry in the chain.

           The code is currently dimensioned to support a chain with roughly 600 entries and 20
           loop counters.

       int bb_i2c_open(unsigned SDA, unsigned SCL, unsigned baud)

           This function selects a pair of GPIO for bit banging I2C at a specified baud rate.

           Bit banging I2C allows for certain operations which are not possible with the standard
           I2C driver.

           o baud rates as low as 50
           o repeated starts
           o clock stretching
           o I2C on any pair of spare GPIO

            SDA: 0-31
            SCL: 0-31
           baud: 50-500000

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, PI_BAD_I2C_BAUD, or PI_GPIO_IN_USE.

           NOTE:

           The GPIO used for SDA and SCL must have pull-ups to 3V3 connected.  As a guide the
           hardware pull-ups on pins 3 and 5 are 1k8 in value.

       int bb_i2c_close(unsigned SDA)

           Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, or PI_NOT_I2C_GPIO.

       int bb_i2c_zip(unsigned SDA, char *inBuf, unsigned inLen, char *outBuf, unsigned outLen)

           This function executes a sequence of bit banged I2C operations.  The operations to be
           performed are specified by the contents of inBuf which contains the concatenated
           command codes and associated data.

           PI_I2C_READ_FAILED, or PI_I2C_WRITE_FAILED.

           The following command codes are supported:

           Name      Cmd & Data     Meaning
           End       0              No more commands

           The address, read, and write commands take a parameter P.  Normally P is one byte
           (0-255).  If the command is preceded by the Escape command then P is two bytes
           (0-65535, least significant byte first).

           The address and flags default to 0.  The address and flags maintain their previous
           value until updated.

           No flags are currently defined.

           The returned I2C data is stored in consecutive locations of outBuf.

       int spi_open(unsigned spi_channel, unsigned baud, unsigned spi_flags)

           This function returns a handle for the SPI device on the channel.  Data will be
           transferred at baud bits per second.  The flags may be used to modify the default
           behaviour of 4-wire operation, mode 0, active low chip select.

           The Pi has two SPI peripherals: main and auxiliary.

           The main SPI has two chip selects (channels), the auxiliary has three.

           The auxiliary SPI is available on all models but the A and B.

           The GPIO used are given in the following table.

                      MISO   MOSI   SCLK   CE0   CE1   CE2
           Main SPI      9     10     11     8     7     -
           Aux SPI      19     20     21    18    17    16

           spi_channel: 0-1 (0-2 for the auxiliary SPI).
                  baud: 32K-125M (values above 30M are unlikely to work).
             spi_flags: see below.

           Returns a handle (>=0) if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_SPI_CHANNEL, PI_BAD_SPI_SPEED,
           PI_BAD_FLAGS, PI_NO_AUX_SPI, or PI_SPI_OPEN_FAILED.

           spi_flags consists of the least significant 22 bits.

           21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10  9  8  7  6  5  4  3  2  1  0

           mm defines the SPI mode.

           Warning: modes 1 and 3 do not appear to work on the auxiliary SPI.

           Mode POL PHA
            0    0   0
            1    0   1
            2    1   0
            3    1   1

           px is 0 if CEx is active low (default) and 1 for active high.

           ux is 0 if the CEx GPIO is reserved for SPI (default) and 1 otherwise.

           A is 0 for the main SPI, 1 for the auxiliary SPI.

           W is 0 if the device is not 3-wire, 1 if the device is 3-wire.  Main SPI only.

           nnnn defines the number of bytes (0-15) to write before switching the MOSI line to
           MISO to read data.  This field is ignored if W is not set.  Main SPI only.

           T is 1 if the least significant bit is transmitted on MOSI first, the default (0)
           shifts the most significant bit out first.  Auxiliary SPI only.

           R is 1 if the least significant bit is received on MISO first, the default (0)
           receives the most significant bit first.  Auxiliary SPI only.

           bbbbbb defines the word size in bits (0-32).  The default (0) sets 8 bits per word.
           Auxiliary SPI only.

           The spi_read, spi_write, and spi_xfer functions transfer data packed into 1, 2, or 4
           bytes according to the word size in bits.

           For bits 1-8 there will be one byte per word.
           For bits 9-16 there will be two bytes per word.
           For bits 17-32 there will be four bytes per word.

           Multi-byte transfers are made in least significant byte first order.

           E.g. to transfer 32 11-bit words buf should contain 64 bytes and count should be 64.

           E.g. to transfer the 14 bit value 0x1ABC send the bytes 0xBC followed by 0x1A.

           The other bits in flags should be set to zero.
