[PATCH v3 0/2] Support for Osram as3668 LED driver
Posted by Lukas Timmermann 6 months, 2 weeks ago
This patch adds basic support for the as3668 driver IC via I2C interface. 
The IC is capable of driving four individual LEDs up to 25.5mA per 
channel. Hardware blinking would be theoretically possible, but this chip
only supports a few set on/off-delays which makes using that feature 
unfeasable, therefore my driver doesn't offer that capability. 
It's intended applications is in mobile devices such as phones, 
tablets and cameras. This driver was tested and is working on 
a samsung-manta which is running postmarketOS with a near mainline kernel.

This is v3 of the patch series adding support for the as3668 LED driver. 
I am sending v3 because I discovered major issues in v1 that required 
correction before review and made some fixes in my workflow during v2.

Please note: This is my first suggested patch to the kernel. 
checkpatch.pl runs without warnings or errors. 
I've read the docs in regards to the led subsystem, 
coding style and submission of patches, 
but I'm still a bit unsure about the general workflow. 

I will try my best.

[PATCH v3 0/2] Follow-Up: Support for Osram as3668 LED driver
Posted by Lukas Timmermann 6 months, 2 weeks ago
Hi all,

I forgot to include the changelog in my previous patch cover letter 
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-leds/20250604225838.102910-1-linux@timmermann.space/T/#t). 
Here is the changelog:

Changes in v3:
- Fixed an extra whitespace in the dt bindings documentation.
- Sent patch to all related lists and maintainers.
- Link to v2: 
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250531120715.302870-4-linux@timmermann.space/
Changes in v2:
- Fixed reading led subnodes in dt incorrectly, which caused wrong 
numbering and a segfault when removing the driver module
- Fixed calling of_property_read_u8 with an int, causing a compiler error
- Added more error checking during writes to the i2c bus
- Link to v1: 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-leds/20250530184219.78085-3-linux@timmermann.space/

Please let me know if any further details are needed.

Thanks!
Lukas Timmermann
