Kernel-3.10.0-957.el7_pwm-backlight

pwm-backlight bindings

Required properties:

  • compatible: “pwm-backlight”
  • pwms: OF device-tree PWM specification (see PWM binding0)
  • brightness-levels: Array of distinct brightness levels. Typically these
    are in the range from 0 to 255, but any range starting at 0 will do.
    The actual brightness level (PWM duty cycle) will be interpolated
    from these values. 0 means a 0% duty cycle (darkest/off), while the
    last value in the array represents a 100% duty cycle (brightest).
  • default-brightness-level: the default brightness level (index into the
    array defined by the “brightness-levels” property)

Optional properties:

  • pwm-names: a list of names for the PWM devices specified in the
           "pwms" property (see PWM binding[0])
    

Example:

backlight {
    compatible = "pwm-backlight";
    pwms = <&pwm 0 5000000>;

    brightness-levels = <0 4 8 16 32 64 128 255>;
    default-brightness-level = <6>;
};
