Here are some quick notes on the GPIO aggregator which allows one to group a number of GPIOs into a virtual GPIO chip, visible as an additional /dev/gpiochip*. Its documentation can be found in Documentation/admin-guide/gpio/gpio-aggregator.rst.
My info comes from:
https://bootlin.com/blog/gpio-aggregator-a-virtual-gpio-chip/
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.12/source/Documentation/admin-guide/gpio/gpio-aggregator.rst

Map pins
Let's map P9_14, P9_16, P9_18 and P9_22 to lines 0-3 on a new gpiochip.
bone$ gpioinfo | grep -e chip -e P9_1[468] -e P9_22 gpiochip0 - 32 lines: line 2: "P9_22 [spi0_sclk]" "gpio-aggregator.0" input active-high [used] line 4: "P9_18 [spi0_d1]" "gpio-aggregator.0" output active-high [used] gpiochip1 - 32 lines: line 18: "P9_14 [ehrpwm1a]" "gpio-aggregator.0" output active-high [used] line 19: "P9_16 [ehrpwm1b]" "gpio-aggregator.0" input active-high [used] gpiochip2 - 32 lines: gpiochip3 - 32 lines:
| Header | gpiochip | line |
|---|---|---|
| P9_14 | 1 | 18 |
| P9_16 | 1 | 19 |
| P9_18 | 0 | 4 |
| P9_22 | 0 | 2 |
bone$ echo "gpio-32-63 18,19 gpio-0-31 4,2" > new_device bone$ ls bind delete_device gpio-aggregator.0 module new_device uevent unbind bone$ ls gpio-aggregator.0 driver driver_override gpio gpiochip4 modalias power subsystem uevent bone$ gpioinfo | tail -6 line 31: "NC" unused input active-high gpiochip4 - 4 lines: line 0: unnamed unused output active-high line 1: unnamed unused input active-high line 2: unnamed unused input active-high line 3: unnamed unused output active-high
bone$ gpiodetect gpiochip0 [gpio-0-31] (32 lines) gpiochip1 [gpio-32-63] (32 lines) gpiochip2 [gpio-64-95] (32 lines) gpiochip3 [gpio-96-127] (32 lines) gpiochip4 [gpio-aggregator.0] (4 lines)
There's a new gpiochip, gpiochip4
Test it
The new mappings are:
| Header | gpiochip | line |
|---|---|---|
| P9_14 | 4 | 0 |
| P9_16 | 4 | 1 |
| P9_18 | 4 | 2 |
| P9_22 | 4 | 3 |
Turn them all on, then off. Since they are all now on the same chip, one command can be used.
bone$ gpioset gpiochip4 0=1 1=1 2=1 3=1 bone$ gpioset gpiochip4 0=0 1=0 2=0 3=0
It's interesting the LEDs stay on, even after the command exits. Normally gpioset returns to it's original state.
Delete it
bone$ echo gpio-aggregator.0 > delete_device
