From e381322b0190c1253d347de3f28b5c37756fb651 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Lechner Date: Fri, 16 Sep 2016 14:16:48 -0500 Subject: leds: Introduce userspace LED class driver This driver creates a userspace leds driver similar to uinput. New LEDs are created by opening /dev/uleds and writing a uleds_user_dev struct. A new LED class device is registered with the name given in the struct. Reading will return a single byte that is the current brightness. The poll() syscall is also supported. It will be triggered whenever the brightness changes. Closing the file handle to /dev/uleds will remove the leds class device.
