From: Christian Mauderer <oss@c-mauderer.de>

This patch adds the binding documentation for a simple SPI based LED
controller which use only one byte for setting the brightness.

Signed-off-by: Christian Mauderer <oss@c-mauderer.de>
---

Changes compared to v3:
- rename binding to ubnt,acb-spi-led
- rewrite description to fit the new binding
- remove off-value and max-value - now determined depending on the compatible
  string
- add 'default-state'

Changes compared to v2:
- None

Changes compared to v1:
- rename ubnt-spi to leds-spi-byte
- rename "ubnt-spi,off_bright" and "ubnt-spi,max_bright" to
  "leds-spi-byte,off-value" and "leds-spi-byte,max-value" and mark them required
- rename led-controller node to "led-controller"
- extend description
- remove SPI controller
- use "white:status" for the example label

+* Single Byte SPI LED Device Driver.
+
+The driver can be used for controllers with a very simple SPI protocol:
+- one LED is controlled by a single byte on MOSI
+- the value of the byte gives the brightness between two values (lowest to
+  highest)
+- no return value is necessary (no MISO signal)
+
+The value for lowest and highest brightness is dependent on the device and
+therefore on the compatible string.
+
+Depending on the compatible string some special functions (like hardware
+accelerated blinking) might can be supported too.
+
+The driver currently only supports one LED. The properties of the LED are
+configured in a sub-node in the device node.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should be one of
+   * "ubnt,acb-spi-led"		microcontroller (SONiX 8F26E611LA) based device
+				used for example in Ubiquiti airCube ISP
+
+Property rules described in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/spi-bus.txt
+apply.
+
+LED sub-node properties:
+- label:
+	see Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.txt
+- default-state:
+	see Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.txt
+	Only "on" and "off" are supported.
+
+Example:
+
+led-controller@0 {
+	compatible = "ubnt,acb-spi-led";
+	reg = <0>;
+	spi-max-frequency = <100000>;
+
+	led {
+		label = "white:status";
+		default-state = "on";
+	};

---

Changes compared to v3:
- remove led_classdev_unregister - not longer necessary due to
  devm_led_classdev_register
- move off_value and max_value to chipdef structure
- reduce intermediate local variables during open firmware parsing
- destroy mutex if devm_led_classdev_register went wrong
- add 'default-state'

Changes compared to v2:
- use "if (ret)" instead of "if (ret != 0)"
- don't initialize ldev-fields with zero
- use devm_led_classdev_register instead of led_classdev_register
- check for error instead of good case with the last if in spi_byte_probe

Changes compared to v1:
- rename ubnt-spi to leds-spi-byte
- rework probe to get all parameters before allocating anything -> error checks
  all collected together and initializing all fields of the device structure is
  more obvious
- fix some unsteady indentations during variable declaration
- rework comment with protocol explanation
- handle case of off_bright > max_bright
- fix spelling in commit message
- mutex_destroy in remove
- change label to use either use the given one without a prefix or a default one

I'd expect this file to be named acb-spi-led.txt, or something, and
talk about that u-controller, not its device driver -- as devicetree
binding describes hardware, not driver.

But you already have an ack from rob, so...

So basically it would have been better to move the description that I
added to the c-file as "supported devices" in the device tree file?

With both commits already acked: Rob and Pavel: Should I change that?

If you both say yes, I would rename the file in the binding like
suggested and move the detailed protocol description from the driver to
the binding.

Best regards

Christian

Let's not ramble on it. It is good as is.

Patch set applied to the for-next branch of linux-leds.git.

Thank you for your work.

Hello Jacek, Pavel, Rob, Dan and everyone who I might have missed,

thanks for the great feedback, the patience while reviewing my patches
and for accepting it.

Although it needed a longer discussion than I expected (partially due to
my rush creating new versions at the beginning) it was a quite positive
experience and I'm quite ready to repeat it if some other opportunity
arises.

Best regards

Christian
