It looks like you are
running an older version of uhd, which suggests an
older kernel version. The older driver claimed a few extra gpio's for
testing purposes.
I see:
address@hidden:~# ls /sys/class/gpio/
export gpio16@ gpio173@ gpiochip128@ gpiochip32@ unexport
gpio114@ gpio164@ gpio175@ gpiochip160@ gpiochip64@
gpio15@ gpio168@ gpiochip0@ gpiochip192@ gpiochip96@
Note the extra gpio's exposed to user space. These are used by uhd for
signaling and configuring the clock generator.
