A controller that provides one or more PWM signals is +registered as :c:type:`struct pwm_chip <pwm_chip>`. Providers +are expected to embed this structure in a driver-specific structure. +This structure contains fields that describe a particular chip. + +A chip exposes one or more PWM signal sources, each of which exposed as +a :c:type:`struct pwm_device <pwm_device>`. Operations can be +performed on PWM devices to control the period, duty cycle, polarity and +active state of the signal. + +Note that PWM devices are exclusive resources: they can always only be +used by one consumer at a time. + +.. kernel-doc:: include/linux/pwm.h + :internal: + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/pwm/core.c + :export: |
