Hi Zoolu,

first, this question is not ELDK related. You should send it to Linux-PPC
mailing list instead <linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org>. But still here a few quick
answers/comments.

The PPC4xx GPIO support is available in the current Linux kernel. See:

arch/powerpc/sysdev/ppc4xx_gpio.c

for more details. Please note that you also need to write a GPIO device node
in the device tree source (dts) of your Linux port. See this file for details
in the GPIO node:

arch/powerpc/boot/dts/warp.dts

So you don't want to use the GPIO pin functionality, but the external
interrupt functionality (the pin functions are multiplexed). You need to write
a device driver for your custom device. And you need to configure the pin as
external interrupt and again add a device node including the interrupt
description into your device tree source (dts).

Cheers,
Stefan
