[PATCH v2 1/3] leds: core: Introduce generic pattern interface

From: Bjorn Andersson
Date: Fri Jul 14 2017 - 18:46:19 EST


Some LED controllers have support for autonomously controlling
brightness over time, according to some preprogrammed pattern or
function.

This adds a new optional operator that LED class drivers can implement
if they support such functionality as well as a new device attribute to
configure the pattern for a given LED.

gpio and backlight triggers. In case of the backlight trigger,
it is useful when driving a LED which is intended to indicate
a device in a standby like state.
+
+What: /sys/class/leds/<led>/pattern
+Date: July 2017
+KernelVersion: 4.14
+Description:
+ Specify a pattern for the LED, for LED hardware that support
+ altering the brightness as a function of time.
+
+ The pattern is given by a series of tuples, of brightness and
+ duration (ms). The LED is expected to traverse the series and
+ each brightness value for the specified duration.
+
+ Additionally a repeat marker ":|" can be appended to the
+ series, which should cause the pattern to be repeated
+ endlessly.
+
+ As LED hardware might have different capabilities and precision
+ the requested pattern might be slighly adjusted by the driver
+ and the resulting pattern of such operation should be returned
+ when this file is read.
