Hello,

I'm Bowen Wang and nice to answer your question. Please correct me If I 
understand wrong.

I think you want to use the relay framework in 
nuttx/drivers/power/relay/relay.c and relay_gpio.c,
which are added by me in PR: power/relay: add relay driver framework for NuttX 
by CV-Bowen · Pull Request #7954 · apache/nuttx 
(github.com)<https://github.com/apache/nuttx/pull/7954>.

The realy framework has two part:

1. The first part is relay.c, relay.c did a very simple thing: convert user 
ioctl(RELAYIOC_SET/GET) to the relay driver implemented dev->ops->set()/get(),
and you can follow the following steps to implement a relay driver:
a. implement the relay ops (set()/get());
b. call relay_register() to register your relay driver (just like relay_gpio.c 
does);

2. The second part is relay_gpio.c, relay_gpio.c base on the alreay implemented 
gpio driver (ioexpander) to resigter a relay driver, so if you has implemented
a ioexpander driver, you can enable config: CONFIG_RELAY_GPIO and then call 
relay_gpio_register() to register a driver, a simple example in sim is:

```c
diff --git a/boards/sim/sim/sim/src/sim_ioexpander.c 
b/boards/sim/sim/sim/src/sim_ioexpander.c

```

And I'm sorry that I missed the docs and examples about the new added relay 
framework, I will add this later.

Kind regards
Bowen Wang

Subject: [External Mail][Quarantine]GPIO drivers

Hello,

I have a processor board with GPIO ports which I would like to use to
control such things as relays and PSU enable pins.

Do I need to write a GPIO driver? There is an I/O expander driver. Is
the I/O expander driver specific to expanders or can it be used for GPIO
control?

Kind regards

Stewart Charnell
