* leds: fix platform driver hotplug/coldplugKay Sievers2008-04-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since 43cc71eed1250755986da4c0f9898f9a635cb3bf, the platform modalias is prefixed with "platform:". Add MODULE_ALIAS() to the hotpluggable platform LED drivers, to re-enable auto loading.

* PWM LED driverDavid Brownell2008-02-08
This is a LED driver using the PWM on newer SOCs from Atmel; brightness is controlled by changing the PWM duty cycle. So for example if you've set up two leds labeled "pwm0" and "pwm1": echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness # off (0%) echo 80 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness # on (100%) Note that "brightness" here isn't linear; maybe that should change. Going from 4 to 8 probably doubles perceived brightness, while 244 to 248 is imperceptible. This is mostly intended to be a simple example of PWM, although it's realistic since LCD backlights are often driven with PWM to conserve battery power (and offer brightness options).
