From 9f0346dcbea363787186c94ef94dd01aaa215afa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Sat, 5 Sep 2026 11:59:05 -0700 Subject: Merge tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core Pull driver core fixes from Danilo Krummrich: - Fix kernfs listxattr() not returning security xattr names (e.g. SELinux labels) when the kernfs node has no allocated kernfs_iattrs - Fix silent truncation of IRQ vector indices in the Rust PCI abstractions - Don't select OF from DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST; skip the test when OF is disabled instead of silently enabling extra kernel functionality - Russ Weight is retiring from kernel development; update the Firmware Loader sysfs contact to the driver-core mailing list, add a CREDITS entry for Firmware Upload, and update MAINTAINERS accordingly * tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core: MAINTAINERS: Remove Russ Weight from Firmware Loader CREDITS: Add CREDITS entry for Firmware Upload firmware_loader: Change contact for sysfs nodes rust: pci: reject IRQ vector indices that do not fit in u32 kernfs: preserve security xattrs without allocating iattrs drivers: base: test: DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST should not select OF --- .../driver-api/backlight/lp855x-driver.rst | 81 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 81 insertions(+) create mode 100644 Documentation/driver-api/backlight/lp855x-driver.rst (limited to 'Documentation/driver-api/backlight') diff --git a/Documentation/driver-api/backlight/lp855x-driver.rst b/Documentation/driver-api/backlight/lp855x-driver.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..1e0b224fc --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/driver-api/backlight/lp855x-driver.rst @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +==================== +Kernel driver lp855x +==================== + +Backlight driver for LP855x ICs + +Supported chips: + + Texas Instruments LP8550, LP8551, LP8552, LP8553, LP8555, LP8556 and + LP8557 + +Author: Milo(Woogyom) Kim + +Description +----------- + +* Brightness control + + Brightness can be controlled by the pwm input or the i2c command. + The lp855x driver supports both cases. + +* Device attributes + + 1) bl_ctl_mode + + Backlight control mode. + + Value: pwm based or register based + + 2) chip_id + + The lp855x chip id. + + Value: lp8550/lp8551/lp8552/lp8553/lp8555/lp8556/lp8557 + +Platform data for lp855x +------------------------ + +For supporting platform specific data, the lp855x platform data can be used. + +* name: + Backlight driver name.
