drivers/leds/leds-lp5521.c: support led pattern data
The lp5521 has autonomous operation mode without external control. Using lp5521_platform_data, various led patterns can be configurable. For supporting this feature, new functions and device attribute are added. Structure of lp5521_led_pattern: 3 channels are supported - red, green and blue. Pattern(s) of each channel and numbers of pattern(s) are defined in the pla= tform data. Pattern data are hexa codes which include pattern commands such like set pwm, wait, ramp up/down, branch and so on. Pattern mode functions: * lp5521_clear_program_memory Before running new led pattern, program memory should be cleared. * lp5521_write_program_memory Pattern data updated in the program memory via the i2c. * lp5521_get_pattern Get pattern from predefined in the platform data. * lp5521_run_led_pattern Stop current pattern or run new pattern. Transition time is required between different operation mode. Device attribute - 'led_pattern': To load specific led pattern, new device attribute is added. When the lp5521 driver is unloaded, stop current led pattern mode. Documentation updated : description about how to define the led patterns and example.

+LED patterns : LP5521 has autonomous operation without external control.
+Pattern data can be defined in the platform data.
+
+example of led pattern data :
+
+/* RGB(50,5,0) 500ms on, 500ms off, infinite loop */
+static u8 pattern_red[] = {
+ 0x40, 0x32, 0x60, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x60, 0x00,
+ };
+
+static u8 pattern_green[] = {
+ 0x40, 0x05, 0x60, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x60, 0x00,
+ };
+
+static struct lp5521_led_pattern board_led_patterns[] = {
+ {
+ .r = pattern_red,
+ .g = pattern_green,
+ .size_r = ARRAY_SIZE(pattern_red),
+ .size_g = ARRAY_SIZE(pattern_green),
+ },
+};
+
+static struct lp5521_platform_data lp5521_platform_data = {
+ .led_config = lp5521_led_config,
+ .num_channels = ARRAY_SIZE(lp5521_led_config),
+ .clock_mode = LP5521_CLOCK_EXT,
+ .patterns = board_led_patterns,
+ .num_patterns = ARRAY_SIZE(board_led_patterns),
+};
+
+Then predefined led pattern(s) can be executed via the sysfs.
+To start the pattern #1,
+# echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/led_pattern
+(xxxx : i2c bus & slave address)
+To end the pattern,
+# echo 0 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/led_pattern
