If ``GPIO_V2_LINE_FLAG_ACTIVE_LOW`` is set then active is low and +inactive is high. + +Only the values of output lines may be set. +Attempting to set the value of an input line is an error (**EPERM**). + +Return Value +============ + +On success 0. + +On error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set appropriately. +Common error codes are described in error-codes.rst. |
