+==============================
+Kernel driver for Qualcomm LPG
+==============================
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The Qualcomm LPG can be found in a variety of Qualcomm PMICs and consists of a
+number of PWM channels, a programmable pattern lookup table and a RGB LED
+current sink.
+
+To facilitate the various use cases, the LPG channels can be exposed as
+individual LEDs, grouped together as RGB LEDs or otherwise be accessed as PWM
+channels. The output of each PWM channel is routed to other hardware
+blocks, such as the RGB current sink, GPIO pins etc.
+
+The each PWM channel can operate with a period between 27us and 384 seconds and
+has a 9 bit resolution of the duty cycle.
+
+In order to provide support for status notifications with the CPU subsystem in
+deeper idle states the LPG provides pattern support. This consists of a shared
+lookup table of brightness values and per channel properties to select the
+range within the table to use, the rate and if the pattern should repeat.
+
+The pattern for a channel can be programmed using the "pattern" trigger, using
+the hw_pattern attribute.
+
+/sys/class/leds/<led>/hw_pattern
+--------------------------------
+
+Specify a hardware pattern for a Qualcomm LPG LED.
+
+The pattern is a series of brightness and hold-time pairs, with the hold-time
+expressed in milliseconds. The hold time is a property of the pattern and must
+therefor be identical for each element in the pattern (except for the pauses
+described below). As the LPG hardware is not able to perform the linear
+transitions expected by the leds-trigger-pattern format, each entry in the
+pattern must be followed a zero-length entry of the same brightness.
+
+Simple pattern::
+
+    "255 500 255 0 0 500 0 0"
+
+        ^
+        |
+    255 +----+    +----+
+        |    |    |    |      ...
+      0 |    +----+    +----
+        +---------------------->
+        0    5   10   15     time (100ms)
+
+The LPG supports specifying a longer hold-time for the first and last element
+in the pattern, the so called "low pause" and "high pause".
+
+Low-pause pattern::
+
+    "255 1000 255 0 0 500 0 0 255 500 255 0 0 500 0 0"
+
+        ^
+        |
+    255 +--------+    +----+    +----+    +--------+
+        |        |    |    |    |    |    |        |      ...
+      0 |        +----+    +----+    +----+        +----
+        +----------------------------->
+        0    5   10   15  20   25   time (100ms)
+
+Similarily, the last entry can be stretched by using a higher hold-time on the
+last entry.
+
+In order to save space in the shared lookup table the LPG supports "ping-pong"
+mode, in which case each run through the pattern is performed by first running
+the pattern forward, then backwards. This mode is automatically used by the
+driver when the given pattern is a palindrome. In this case the "high pause"
+denotes the wait time before the pattern is run in reverse and as such the
+specified hold-time of the middle item in the pattern is allowed to have a
+different hold-time.
