Hi all,

Since GPIO support for RFNoC blocks has been requested so often, and by so
many people, it deserves its own email.

With the latest push of commits onto our master branch, we now have support
for connecting your RFNoC blocks to front-panel GPIOs on *all* of our RFNoC
devices (so including the often requested X310, the recently requested
N310, but also all the other devices, i.e. X410/X440/E320). If you're
interested in the details, see this and the following commits:
https://github.com/EttusResearch/uhd/commit/789301bde1c612a09290a54a4d36ff8962b36dfa.
In a nutshell, RFNoC blocks can be connected to the front panel through
regular IO ports. All the RFNoC tooling will make it reasonably simple to
build blocks that require access to GPIOs. You can even select which GPIO
pins are driven by your RFNoC block, and which pins are driven by the radio
(so you don't lose any features this way).

We will be also providing an example in the rfnoc-oot-blocks repository,
but that is not quite ship-shape yet. Keep your eyes on that repo (
https://github.com/EttusResearch/rfnoc-oot-blocks). We just want to give
you usrp-users subscribers a heads-up!

Thanks to all the folks who provided feedback on this feature!
