+Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. LPG driver specific bindings
+
+This binding document describes the properties of LPG (Light Pulse Generator)
+device module in Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. PMIC chips.
+
+- compatible:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <string>
+ Definition: Must be "qcom,pwm-lpg".
+
+- reg:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: Register base for LPG and LUT modules.
+
+- reg-names:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <string>
+ Definition: The name of the register defined in the reg property.
+ It must have "lpg-base", "lut-base" is optional but
+ it's required if any LPG channels support LUT mode.
+
+- #pwm-cells:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: The number of cells in "pwms" property specified in
+ PWM user nodes. It should be 2. The first cell is
+ the PWM channel ID indexed from 0, and the second
+ cell is the PWM default period in nanoseconds.
+
+- qcom,num-lpg-channels:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: The number of the consecutive LPG/PWM channels in the chip.
+
+- qcom,lut-patterns:
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: Duty ratios in percentages for LPG working at LUT mode.
+ These duty ratios will be translated into PWM values
+ and stored in LUT module. The LUT module has resource
+ to store 47 PWM values at max and shared for all LPG
+ channels. This property is required if any LPG channels
+ support LUT mode.
+
+- qcom,sync-channel-ids:
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: The hardware IDs of the LPG channel that required be
+ grouped together. These channels will share the same LUT
+ ramping configuration so that they will be enabled with a
+ synchronized pattern. If the LUT ramping configuration
+ differs for the channels grouped for synchronization,
+ configuration of the first channel will be applied for
+ all others.
+
+Subnode is optional if LUT mode is not required, it's required if any LPG
+channels expected to be supported in LUT mode.
+
+Subnode properties:
+Subnodes for each LPG channel (lpg@X) can be defined if any of the following
+parameters needs to be configured for that channel.
+
+- qcom,lpg-chan-id:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: The LPG channel's hardware ID indexed from 1. Allowed
+ range is 1 - 8. Maximum value depends on the number of
+ channels supported on PMIC.
+
+- qcom,ramp-step-ms:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: The step duration in milliseconds for LPG staying at each
+ duty specified in the LUT pattern. Allowed range is
+ 1 - 511.
+
+- qcom,ramp-high-index:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: The high index of the LUT pattern where LPG ends up
+ ramping to. Allowed range is 1 - 47.
+
+- qcom,ramp-low-index:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: The low index of the LUT pattern from where LPG begins
+ ramping from. Allowed range is 0 - 46.
+
+- qcom,ramp-from-low-to-high:
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <empty>
+ Definition: The flag to specify the LPG ramping direction. The ramping
+ direction is from low index to high index of the LUT
+ pattern if it's specified.
+
+- qcom,ramp-pattern-repeat:
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <empty>
+ Definition: The flag to specify if LPG would be ramping with the LUT
+ pattern repeatedly.
+
+- qcom,ramp-toggle:
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <empty>
+ Definition: The flag to specify if LPG would toggle the LUT pattern
+ in ramping. If toggling enabled, LPG would return to the
+ low index when high index is reached, or return to the high
+ index when low index is reached.
+
+- qcom,ramp-pause-hi-count:
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: The step count that LPG stop the output when it ramped up
+ to the high index of the LUT.
+
+- qcom,ramp-pause-lo-count:
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <u32>
+ Definition: The step count that LPG stop the output when it ramped up
+ to the low index of the LUT.
