      Documentation: Use "while" instead of "whilst" · 806654a9
      Will Deacon authored
      
      Whilst making an unrelated change to some Documentation, Linus sayeth:
      
        | Afaik, even in Britain, "whilst" is unusual and considered more
        | formal, and "while" is the common word.
        |
        | [...]
        |
        | Can we just admit that we work with computers, and we don't need to
        | use þe eald Englisc spelling of words that most of the world never
        | uses?
      
      dictionary.com refers to the word as "Chiefly British", which is
      probably an undesirable attribute for technical documentation.
      
      Replace all occurrences under Documentation/ with "while".

      Drop all 00-INDEX files from Documentation/ · a7ddcea5
      Henrik Austad authored
      
      This is a respin with a wider audience (all that get_maintainer returned)
      and I know this spams a *lot* of people. Not sure what would be the correct
      way, so my apologies for ruining your inbox.
      
      The 00-INDEX files are supposed to give a summary of all files present
      in a directory, but these files are horribly out of date and their
      usefulness is brought into question. Often a simple "ls" would reveal
      the same information as the filenames are generally quite descriptive as
      a short introduction to what the file covers (it should not surprise
      anyone what Documentation/sched/sched-design-CFS.txt covers)
      
      A few years back it was mentioned that these files were no longer really
      needed, and they have since then grown further out of date, so perhaps
      it is time to just throw them out.
      
      A short status yields the following _outdated_ 00-INDEX files, first
      counter is files listed in 00-INDEX but missing in the directory, last
      is files present but not listed in 00-INDEX.
      
      List of outdated 00-INDEX:
      Documentation: (4/10)
      Documentation/sysctl: (0/1)
      Documentation/timers: (1/0)
      Documentation/blockdev: (3/1)
      Documentation/w1/slaves: (0/1)
      Documentation/locking: (0/1)
      Documentation/devicetree: (0/5)
      Documentation/power: (1/1)
      Documentation/powerpc: (0/5)
      Documentation/arm: (1/0)
      Documentation/x86: (0/9)
      Documentation/x86/x86_64: (1/1)
      Documentation/scsi: (4/4)
      Documentation/filesystems: (2/9)
      Documentation/filesystems/nfs: (0/2)
      Documentation/cgroup-v1: (0/2)
      Documentation/kbuild: (0/4)
      Documentation/spi: (1/0)
      Documentation/virtual/kvm: (1/0)
      Documentation/scheduler: (0/2)
      Documentation/fb: (0/1)
      Documentation/block: (0/1)
      Documentation/networking: (6/37)
      Documentation/vm: (1/3)
      
      Then there are 364 subdirectories in Documentation/ with several files that
      are missing 00-INDEX alltogether (and another 120 with a single file and no
      00-INDEX).
      
      I don't really have an opinion to whether or not we /should/ have 00-INDEX,
      but the above 00-INDEX should either be removed or be kept up to date. If
      we should keep the files, I can try to keep them updated, but I rather not
      if we just want to delete them anyway.
      
      As a starting point, remove all index-files and references to 00-INDEX and
      see where the discussion is going.

      usb: core: Introduce a USB port LED trigger · 0f247626
      Rafał Miłecki authored
      
      This commit adds a new trigger responsible for turning on LED when USB
      device gets connected to the selected USB port. This can can useful for
      various home routers that have USB port(s) and a proper LED telling user
      a device is connected.
      
      The trigger gets its documentation file but basically it just requires
      enabling it and selecting USB ports (e.g. echo 1 > ports/usb1-1).
      
      There was a long discussion on design of this driver. Its current state
      is a result of picking them most adjustable solution as others couldn't
      handle all cases.
      
      1) It wasn't possible for the driver to register separated trigger for
         each USB port. Some physical USB ports are handled by more than one
         controller and so by more than one USB port. E.g. USB 2.0 physical
         port may be handled by OHCI's port and EHCI's port.
         It's also not possible to assign more than 1 trigger to a single LED
         and implementing such feature would be tricky due to syncing triggers
         and sysfs conflicts with old triggers.
      
      2) Another idea was to register trigger per USB hub. This wouldn't allow
         handling devices with multiple USB LEDs and controllers (hubs)
         controlling more than 1 physical port. It's common for hubs to have
         few ports and each may have its own LED.
      
      This final trigger is highly flexible. It allows selecting any USB ports
      for any LED. It was also modified (comparing to the initial version) to
      allow choosing ports rather than having user /guess/ proper names. It
      was successfully tested on SmartRG SR400ac which has 3 USB LEDs,
      2 physical ports and 3 controllers.
      
      It was noted USB subsystem already has usb-gadget and usb-host triggers
      but they are pretty trivial ones. They indicate activity only and can't
      have ports specified.
      
      In future it may be good idea to consider adding activity support to
      usbport as well. This should allow switching to this more generic driver
      and maybe marking old ones as obsolete.
      This can be implemented with another sysfs file for setting mode. The
      default mode wouldn't change so there won't be ABI breakage and so such
      feature can be safely implemented later.
      
      There was also an idea of supporting other devices (PCI, SDIO, etc.) but
      as this driver already contains some USB specific code (and will get
      more) these should be probably separated drivers (triggers).

      leds: add driver for Mellanox systems LEDs · be4fdf99
      Vadim Pasternak authored
      
      This makes it possible to create a set of LEDs for Mellanox systems:
      "msx6710", "msx6720", "msb7700", "msn2700", "msx1410", "msn2410",
      "msb7800", "msn2740", "msn2100".
      
      Driver obtains LED devices according to system configuration, provided
      through system DMI data, like mlxcpld:fan1:green, mlxcpld:fan1:red and
      creates devices in form: "devicename:colour:function".
      
      LED setting is controlled through on board CPLD Lattice device.
      For setting particular LED off, solid, blink:
      echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/mlxcpld\:status\:green/brightness
      echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/mlxcpld\:status\:green/brightness
      echo timer > /sys/class/leds/mlxcpld\:status\:green/trigger
      
      On module probing all LEDs are set green, on removing - off.
      
      Last setting overwrites previous, f.e. sequence for
      changing LED from green - red - green:
      echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/mlxcpld\:psu\:green/brightness
      echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/mlxcpld\:psu\:red/brightness
      echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/mlxcpld\:psu\:green/brightness
      Note: LEDs cannot be turned on/off simultaneously.
      
      The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:
      drivers/leds/Kconfig:config LEDS_MLXCPLD

      leds: core: Fix brightness setting upon hardware blinking enabled · 7cfe749f
      Tony Makkiel authored
      
      Commit 76931edd ("leds: fix brightness changing when software blinking
      is active") changed the semantics of led_set_brightness() which according
      to the documentation should disable blinking upon any brightness setting.
      Moreover it made it different for soft blink case, where it was possible
      to change blink brightness, and for hardware blink case, where setting
      any brightness greater than 0 was ignored.
      
      While the change itself is against the documentation claims, it was driven
      also by the fact that timer trigger remained active after turning blinking
      off. Fixing that would have required major refactoring in the led-core,
      led-class, and led-triggers because of cyclic dependencies.
      
      Finally, it has been decided that allowing for brightness change during
      blinking is beneficial as it can be accomplished without disturbing
      blink rhythm.
      
      The change in brightness setting semantics will not affect existing
      LED class drivers that implement blink_set op thanks to the LED_BLINK_SW
      flag introduced by this patch. The flag state will be from now on checked
      in led_set_brightness() which will allow to distinguish between software
      and hardware blink mode. In the latter case the control will be passed
      directly to the drivers which apply their semantics on brightness set,
      which is disable the blinking in case of most such drivers. New drivers
      will apply new semantics and just change the brightness while hardware
      blinking is on, if possible.
      
      The issue was smuggled by subsequent LED core improvements, which modified
      the code that originally introduced the problem.

      Input: export LEDs as class devices in sysfs · f60c8ba7
      Samuel Thibault authored
      
      This change creates a new input handler called "leds" that exports LEDs on input
      devices as standard LED class devices in sysfs and allows controlling their
      state via sysfs or via any of the standard LED triggers. This allows to
      re-purpose and reassign LDEs on the keyboards to represent states other
      than the standard keyboard states (CapsLock, NumLock, etc).
      
      The old API of controlling input LEDs by writing into /dev/input/eventX
      devices is still present and will take precedence over accessing via LEDs
      subsystem (i.e. it may override state set by a trigger). If input device is
      "grabbed" then requests coming through LED subsystem will be ignored.

      leds: lp5523: Support LED MUX configuration on running a pattern · 93ad8a1d
      Milo Kim authored
      
      There are two ways to run a pattern in LP5523.
      One is using legacy sysfs files such as 'enginex_mode','enginex_load' and
      'enginex_leds'. ('x' is from 1 to 3).
      Among them, 'enginex_leds' are used for selecting specific LED channel MUX.
      (MUX means which LEDs are used for running a pattern from LED 1 to 9.)
      
      The other way is using the firmware interface.
      In this mode, the default LED MUX strings are used.
      In other words, LED MUX is not configurable on the fly.
      
      This patch enables dynamic LED MUX configuration when the firmware is loaded.
      By accessing the sysfs file 'enginex_leds', the LED channels can be configured.
      To synchronize the operation mode, each engine mode should be set to 'LOAD'.
      
      The documentation is updated as well.

      leds: support new LP8501 device - another LP55xx common · 33b3a561
      Kim, Milo authored
      
      LP8501 can drive up to 9 channels like LP5523.
      LEDs can be controlled directly via the I2C and programmable engines are
      supported.
      
      LP55xx common driver
       LP8501 is one of LP55xx family device, so LP55xx common code are used.
       Chip specific data is defined in the structure, 'lp55xx_device_config'.
      
      Differences between LP8501 and LP5523
       Different register layout for LED output control and others.
       LP8501 specific feature for separate output power selection.
       LP8501 doesn't support external clock detection.
       Different programming engine data.
      
      LP8501 specific feature - output power selection
       Output channels are selected by power selection - Vout or Vdd.
       Separate power for VDD1-6 and VDD7-9 are available.
       It is configurable in the platform data.
       To support this feature, LP55xx DT structure and header are changed.
       Device tree binding is updated as well.
      
      LED pattern data
       Example pattern data is updated in the driver documentation.

      leds: lp55xx: configure the clock detection · 81f2a5b4
      Kim, Milo authored
      
      Now LP55xx provides automatic clock detection API, lp55xx_is_extclk_used().
      The clock configuration can be done by the driver itself.
      
      (a) Concept
      The default value is set by each driver with clock selection.
      The internal clock selection bit is updated in case that the external clock
      is not detected or clock rate is not 32KHz.
      
      (b) Change on LP55xx platform data
      The clock configuration is done automatically, so no need to define
      'update_config' in the platform side.
      Correlated information are removed in the documentations and header.
      
      (c) Definitions moved from header to driver files
      CONFIG register values are moved each driver, LP5521 and LP5562.
      Not necessary definitions are removed also.

      leds: add new LP5562 LED driver · ff45262a
      Kim, Milo authored
      
      LP5562 can drive up to 4 channels, RGB and White.
      LEDs can be controlled directly via the led class control interface.
      
       LP55xx common driver
        LP5562 is one of LP55xx family device, so LP55xx common code are used.
        On the other hand, chip specific configuration is defined in the structure
        'lp55xx_device_config'
      
       LED pattern data
        LP5562 has also internal program memory which is used for running various LED
        patterns. LP5562 driver supports the firmware interface and the predefined
        pattern data as well.
      
       LP5562 device attributes: 'led_pattern' and 'engine_mux'
        A 'led_pattern' is an index code which runs the predefined pattern data.
        And 'engine_mux' is updated with the firmware interface is activated.
        Detailed description has been updated in the documentation files,
        'leds-lp55xx.txt' and 'leds-lp5562.txt'.
      
       Changes on the header file
        LP5562 configurable definitions are added.
        Pattern RGB data is fixed as constant value.
        (No side effect on other devices, LP5521 or LP5523.)

      leds: add new transient trigger for one shot timer activation · 44e1e9f8
      Shuah Khan authored
      
      The leds timer trigger does not currently have an interface to activate a
      one shot timer.  The current support allows for setting two timers, one
      for specifying how long a state to be on, and the second for how long the
      state to be off.  The delay_on value specifies the time period an LED
      should stay in on state, followed by a delay_off value that specifies how
      long the LED should stay in off state.  The on and off cycle repeats until
      the trigger gets deactivated.  There is no provision for one time
      activation to implement features that require an on or off state to be
      held just once and then stay in the original state forever.
      
      Without one shot timer interface, user space can still use timer trigger
      to set a timer to hold a state, however when user space application
      crashes or goes away without deactivating the timer, the hardware will be
      left in that state permanently.
      
      As a specific example of this use-case, let's look at vibrate feature on
      phones.  Vibrate function on phones is implemented using PWM pins on SoC
      or PMIC.  There is a need to activate one shot timer to control the
      vibrate feature, to prevent user space crashes leaving the phone in
      vibrate mode permanently causing the battery to drain.
      
      This trigger exports three properties, activate, state, and duration When
      transient trigger is activated these properties are set to default values.
      
      - duration allows setting timer value in msecs. The initial value is 0.
      - activate allows activating and deactivating the timer specified by
        duration as needed. The initial and default value is 0.  This will allow
        duration to be set after trigger activation.
      - state allows user to specify a transient state to be held for the specified
        duration.
