GPIO sysfs interface not available in 9.0

Hi,

I use the GPIO pins on my Odroid C2 to control various things (e.g. lights). In LE 8 the GPIO sysfs interface was available and I could enable a GPIO pin by doing `echo PIN-NUMBER > /sys/class/gpio/export`. The `export` file does not exist anymore in LE 9 so I cannot use the GPIOs anymore. And the pin numbers shown by `cat /sys/kernel/debug/gpio` have all changed.

Is there something I can do to regain control of the GPIOs? Or was another mechanism added to control the GPIOs?

I'm asking this in the General section since I don't know if this regression is specific to the Odroid C2 or if it is effecting all platforms. Searching the forum and the internet at Large didn't help me.

Cheers!

So for some reason the GPIO sysfs option in the kernel config has been disabled in LE9. Since I don't want to compile and maintain my own LE distribution just to change one option I switched to CoreELEC, which has the GPIO sysfs option enabled.

Still, thanks a lot for all your hard work on LE, which makes forks like CE possible in the first place!
