Hello all,
I was wondering if it's possible to configure a GPIO pin on the Beaglebone 
black as a bidirectional GPIO via device tree overlays. Essentially 
allowing the developer to control the pins direction via the 
/sys/class/gpio/gpioxx/direction file in sysfs.

A close look at the pinmux table/registers in the TRM reveals that setting 
bit 5 enables the receiver (input) and clearing bit 5 disables the receiver 
(input). If I enable the receiver can I use the GPIO pin as both input and 
output or would it have to be input only ?

And if that isn't possible is there any other way to use the GPIO pins 
bidirectionally without having to dynamically load device tree overlays 
every time we need to change the direction of a GPIO ?

 
Thanks!  
Hussam
