Using gpiolib to power off my system

Hi list,

I want to use the gpiolib API in a routine that should poweroff the system=
=20
(MPC5200B). I register my poweroff routine in the define_machine() macro as:

[...]
=2Epower_off	=3D my_power_off,
[...]

In this routine I'm using gpio_request(...), gpio_direction_output(...) and=
=20
gpio_set_value(...) ---- but nothing happens.

When I set the GPIOs in the hard way (ioremap() + playing with the register=
s)=20
the system switches off as expected.

How to get some useful debug output at this late system state (printk does =
not=20
work anymore)?

Regards,
Juergen
