Applications include efficient 9b817bf5cSThierry Reding power delivery and voltage regulation. In computer systems, 10b817bf5cSThierry Reding PWMs are commonly used to control fans or the brightness of 11b817bf5cSThierry Reding display backlights. 12b817bf5cSThierry Reding 13b817bf5cSThierry Reding This framework provides a generic interface to PWM devices 14b817bf5cSThierry Reding within the Linux kernel. On the driver side it provides an API 15b817bf5cSThierry Reding to register and unregister a PWM chip, an abstraction of a PWM 16b817bf5cSThierry Reding controller, that supports one or more PWM devices. Client 17b817bf5cSThierry Reding drivers can request PWM devices and use the generic framework 18b817bf5cSThierry Reding to configure as well as enable and disable them. 19b817bf5cSThierry Reding 20b817bf5cSThierry Reding This generic framework replaces the legacy PWM framework which 21b817bf5cSThierry Reding allows only a single driver implementing the required API. Not 22b817bf5cSThierry Reding all legacy implementations have been ported to the framework 23b817bf5cSThierry Reding yet. The framework provides an API that is backward compatible 24b817bf5cSThierry Reding with the legacy framework so that existing client drivers 25b817bf5cSThierry Reding continue to work as expected. 26b817bf5cSThierry Reding 27b817bf5cSThierry Reding If unsure, say no. 280c2498f1SSascha Hauer 290c2498f1SSascha Hauerif PWM 300c2498f1SSascha Hauer 316173f8f4SThierry Redingconfig PWM_AB8500 326173f8f4SThierry Reding tristate "AB8500 PWM support" 336173f8f4SThierry Reding depends on AB8500_CORE && ARCH_U8500 346173f8f4SThierry Reding help 356173f8f4SThierry Reding Generic PWM framework driver for Analog Baseband AB8500. 366173f8f4SThierry Reding 376173f8f4SThierry Reding To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 386173f8f4SThierry Reding will be called pwm-ab8500. 396173f8f4SThierry Reding 40a4315e3cSThierry Redingconfig PWM_BFIN 41a4315e3cSThierry Reding tristate "Blackfin PWM support" 42a4315e3cSThierry Reding depends on BFIN_GPTIMERS 43a4315e3cSThierry Reding help 44a4315e3cSThierry Reding Generic PWM framework driver for Blackfin. 45a4315e3cSThierry Reding 46a4315e3cSThierry Reding To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 47a4315e3cSThierry Reding will be called pwm-bfin. 48a4315e3cSThierry Reding 4929693248SSascha Hauerconfig PWM_IMX 5029693248SSascha Hauer tristate "i.MX pwm support" 5129693248SSascha Hauer depends on ARCH_MXC 5229693248SSascha Hauer help 5329693248SSascha Hauer Generic PWM framework driver for i.MX. 5429693248SSascha Hauer 5529693248SSascha Hauer To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 5629693248SSascha Hauer will be called pwm-imx. 5729693248SSascha Hauer 58*f6b8a570SThierry Redingconfig PWM_JZ4740 59*f6b8a570SThierry Reding tristate "Ingenic JZ4740 PWM support" 60*f6b8a570SThierry Reding depends on MACH_JZ4740 61*f6b8a570SThierry Reding help 62*f6b8a570SThierry Reding Generic PWM framework driver for Ingenic JZ4740 based 63*f6b8a570SThierry Reding machines. 64*f6b8a570SThierry Reding 65*f6b8a570SThierry Reding To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 66*f6b8a570SThierry Reding will be called pwm-jz4740. 67*f6b8a570SThierry Reding 682132fa8dSAlexandre Pereira da Silvaconfig PWM_LPC32XX 692132fa8dSAlexandre Pereira da Silva tristate "LPC32XX PWM support" 702132fa8dSAlexandre Pereira da Silva depends on ARCH_LPC32XX 712132fa8dSAlexandre Pereira da Silva help 722132fa8dSAlexandre Pereira da Silva Generic PWM framework driver for LPC32XX.
