Describing and referring to LEDs in ACPI
|
||||
|
||||
Individual LEDs are described by hierarchical data extension [6] nodes under the
|
||||
device node, the LED driver chip. The "reg" property in the LED specific nodes
|
||||
tells the numerical ID of each individual LED output to which the LEDs are
|
||||
connected. [3] The hierarchical data nodes are named "led@X", where X is the
|
||||
number of the LED output.
|
||||
|
||||
Referring to LEDs in Device tree is documented in [4], in "flash-leds" property
|
||||
documentation. In short, LEDs are directly referred to by using phandles.
|
||||
|
||||
While Device tree allows referring to any node in the tree[1], in ACPI
|
||||
references are limited to device nodes only [2]. For this reason using the same
|
||||
mechanism on ACPI is not possible. A mechanism to refer to non-device ACPI nodes
|
||||
is documented in [7].
|
||||
|
||||
ACPI allows (as does DT) using integer arguments after the reference. A
|
||||
combination of the LED driver device reference and an integer argument,
|
||||
referring to the "reg" property of the relevant LED, is used to identify
|
||||
individual LEDs. The value of the "reg" property is a contract between the
|
||||
firmware and software, it uniquely identifies the LED driver outputs.
|
||||
|
||||
Under the LED driver device, The first hierarchical data extension package list
|
||||
entry shall contain the string "led@" followed by the number of the LED,
|
||||
followed by the referred object name. That object shall be named "LED" followed
|
||||
by the number of the LED.
|
||||
|
||||
An ASL example of a camera sensor device and a LED driver device for two LEDs.
|
||||
Objects not relevant for LEDs or the references to them have been omitted.
