+What:		/dev/<gpioblock>
+Date:		Nov 2012
+KernelVersion:	3.7
+Contact:	Roland Stigge <stigge at antcom.de>
+Description:	The /dev/<gpioblock> character device node provides userspace
+		access to GPIO blocks, named exactly as the block, e.g.
+		/dev/block0.
+
+		Reading:
+		When reading sizeof(unsigned long) bytes from the device, the
+		current state of the block, masked by the current mask (see
+		below) can be obtained as a word.
+
+		Writing:
+		By writing sizeof(unsigned long) bytes to the device, the
+		current state of the block can be set. This operation is
+		masked by the current mask (see below).
+
+		Setting the mask (default: all bits set):
+		By doing an ioctl(fd, 0, &mask) with an unsigned long mask, the
+		current mask for read and write operations on this gpio block
+		can be set.
+
+		See also Documentation/gpio.txt for an explanation of block
+		GPIO.
