how to read GPIO values from command line?

  i'm looking at the docs and tried the obvious but it didn't seem to
work.  in order to recognize the version of beagleboard, i can see
what happens in the u-boot code:

/*
 * Routine: get_board_revision
 * Description: Detect if we are running on a Beagle revision Ax/Bx,
 *              C1/2/3, C4 or xM. This can be done by reading
 *              the level of GPIO173, GPIO172 and GPIO171. This should
 *              result in
 *              GPIO173, GPIO172, GPIO171: 1 1 1 => Ax/Bx
 *              GPIO173, GPIO172, GPIO171: 1 1 0 => C1/2/3
 *              GPIO173, GPIO172, GPIO171: 1 0 1 => C4
 *              GPIO173, GPIO172, GPIO171: 0 0 0 => xM
 */
int get_board_revision(void)
{
        int revision;

        if (!gpio_request(171, "") &&
            !gpio_request(172, "") &&
            !gpio_request(173, "")) {

                gpio_direction_input(171);
                gpio_direction_input(172);
                gpio_direction_input(173);

                revision = gpio_get_value(173) << 2 |
                           gpio_get_value(172) << 1 |
                           gpio_get_value(171);
        } else {
                printf("Error: unable to acquire board revision GPIOs\n");
                revision = -1;
        }

        return revision;
}

  however, in the latest kernel tree, it seems things have changed
slightly:

/*
 * OMAP3 Beagle revision
 * Run time detection of Beagle revision is done by reading GPIO.
 * GPIO ID -
 *      AXBX    = GPIO173, GPIO172, GPIO171: 1 1 1
 *      C1_3    = GPIO173, GPIO172, GPIO171: 1 1 0
 *      C4      = GPIO173, GPIO172, GPIO171: 1 0 1
 *      XMA/XMB = GPIO173, GPIO172, GPIO171: 0 0 0
 *      XMC = GPIO173, GPIO172, GPIO171: 0 1 0
 */

  now that's useful since there are now allegedly different values for
xM A/B, and xM C, and i have a rev C.

  so what exactly does one do to read those values?  i tried:

barebox@Texas Instrument's Beagle:/ gpio_direction_input 171
barebox@Texas Instrument's Beagle:/ gpio_get_value 171

but what do i check?  the shell variable $?  i'm not sure what i
should do next.

p.s.  my plan is to port that code to barebox, of course.  first, i
just want to see the values 0,1,0 from those gpio pins based on my
board version.
