Once the file descriptor is closed, the state of +the line becomes uncontrolled from the userspace perspective, and may revert +to its default state. + +Requesting a line already in use is an error (**EBUSY**). + +Requesting edge detection on a line that does not support interrupts is an +error (**ENXIO**). + +As with the :ref:`line handle<gpio-get-linehandle-config-support>`, the +bias configuration is best effort. + +Closing the ``chip_fd`` has no effect on existing line events. + +Configuration Rules +------------------- + +The following configuration rules apply: + +The line event is requested as an input, so no flags specific to output lines, +``GPIOHANDLE_REQUEST_OUTPUT``, ``GPIOHANDLE_REQUEST_OPEN_DRAIN``, or +``GPIOHANDLE_REQUEST_OPEN_SOURCE``, may be set. + +Only one bias flag, ``GPIOHANDLE_REQUEST_BIAS_xxx``, may be set. +If no bias flags are set then the bias configuration is not changed. + +The edge flags, ``GPIOEVENT_REQUEST_RISING_EDGE`` and +``GPIOEVENT_REQUEST_FALLING_EDGE``, may be combined to detect both rising +and falling edges. + +Requesting an invalid configuration is an error (**EINVAL**). + +Return Value +============ + +On success 0 and the :c:type:`request.fd<gpioevent_request>` contains the file +descriptor for the request. + +On error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set appropriately. +Common error codes are described in error-codes.rst. |
