There are no tools available within the kernel source for the
deprecated sysfs interface.

Google around, you will find a lot of examples to access gpios from
userspace. Here are some good references:
https://github.com/jackmitch/libsoc
https://github.com/Linutronix/libgpio
https://github.com/animalcreek/libgpio
https://developer.ridgerun.com/wiki/index.php/Gpio-int-test.c

It is also straight forward to write your own small interface/library,
although I would recommend using one of the above.
HTH.
