General-purpose input/output (gpio) management in a firmware framework

Abstract

Systems and methods for General-Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) management in a firmware framework are described. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include: a controller, where the controller includes firmware that, upon execution by a processing core, causes the processing core to instantiate an orchestrator of a firmware framework; and a plurality of devices coupled to the controller, where each device includes firmware that, upon execution by a corresponding processing core, causes the corresponding processing core to instantiate a respective node in the firmware framework, and where the orchestrator is configured to provide execute a GPIO command without any involvement by any host Operating System (OS).

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
