+
+GPIO RPMSG Protocol
+===================
+
+The GPIO RPMSG transport protocol is used for communication and interaction
+with GPIO controllers located on remote cores on the RPMSG bus.
+
+Message Format
+--------------
+
+The RPMSG message consists of a 14-byte packet with the following layout:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+   +-----+------+------+-----+-----+------------+-----+-----+-----+----+
+   |0x00 |0x01  |0x02  |0x03 |0x04 |0x05..0x09  |0x0A |0x0B |0x0C |0x0D|
+   |cate |major |minor |type |cmd  |reserved[5] |line |port |  data    |
+   +-----+------+------+-----+-----+------------+-----+-----+-----+----+
+
+- **Cate (Category field)**: Indicates the category of the message, such as GPIO, I2C, PMIC, AUDIO, etc.
+
+  Defined categories:
+
+  - 1: RPMSG_LIFECYCLE
+  - 2: RPMSG_PMIC
+  - 3: RPMSG_AUDIO
+  - 4: RPMSG_KEY
+  - 5: RPMSG_GPIO
+  - 6: RPMSG_RTC
+  - 7: RPMSG_SENSOR
+  - 8: RPMSG_AUTO
+  - 9: RPMSG_CATEGORY
+  - A: RPMSG_PWM
+  - B: RPMSG_UART
+
+- **Major**: Major version number.
+
+- **Minor**: Minor version number.
+
+- **Type (Message Type)**: For the GPIO category, can be one of:
+
+  - 0: GPIO_RPMSG_SETUP
+  - 1: GPIO_RPMSG_REPLY
+  - 2: GPIO_RPMSG_NOTIFY
+
+- **Cmd**: Command code, used for GPIO_RPMSG_SETUP messages.
+
+- **reserved[5]**: Reserved bytes.
+
+- **line**: The GPIO line index.
+
+- **port**: The GPIO controller index.
+
+GPIO Commands
+-------------
+
+Commands are specified in the **Cmd** field for **GPIO_RPMSG_SETUP** (Type=0) messages.
