Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] dt-bindings: iio: light: isl29018: add isil,cover-comp-gain
Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2026 12:06:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260604100617.3486541-3-github.com@herrie.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260604100617.3486541-1-github.com@herrie.org>
Document the new optional property that seeds the ISL29018 calibration
scale factor at boot from firmware, allowing boards with tinted cover
glass to ship with correct luminance readings without a userspace helper.
The value is a positive integer (minimum 1, maximum 65535) that is
multiplied with the raw lux reading. Userspace can still override it
at runtime through in_illuminance0_calibscale.
