4 Contact: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
6 Set the brightness of the LED. Most LEDs don't
7 have hardware brightness support, so will just be turned on for
8 non-zero brightness settings. The value is between 0 and
9 /sys/class/leds/<led>/max_brightness.
11 Writing 0 to this file clears active trigger.
13 Writing non-zero to this file while trigger is active changes the
14 top brightness trigger is going to use.

30 Last hardware set brightness level for this LED. Some LEDs
31 may be changed autonomously by hardware/firmware. Only LEDs

38 Reading this file will return the last brightness level set
39 by the hardware, this may be different from the current

41 event has happened will return an ENODATA error.

50 You can change triggers in a similar manner to the way an IO
51 scheduler is chosen. Trigger specific parameters can appear in
52 /sys/class/leds/<led> once a given trigger is selected. For

60 Invert the LED on/off state. This parameter is specific to
61 gpio and backlight triggers. In case of the backlight trigger,
62 it is useful when driving a LED which is intended to indicate
63 a device in a standby like state.
