By providing a GPIO line as "trigger-sources" in the FWNODE
(such as from the device tree) and combining with the
GPIO trigger, we can support a GPIO LED trigger in a natural
way from the hardware description instead of using the
custom sysfs and deprecated global GPIO numberspace.
Example:
gpio: gpio@0 {
compatible "my-gpio";
gpio-controller;
#gpio-cells = <2>;
interrupt-controller;
#interrupt-cells = <2>;
#trigger-source-cells = <2>;
};
leds {
compatible = "gpio-leds";
led-my-gpio {
label = "device:blue:myled";
gpios = <&gpio 0 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
default-state = "off";
linux,default-trigger = "gpio";
trigger-sources = <&gpio 1 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
};
};
Make this the norm, unmark the driver as broken.
Delete the sysfs handling of GPIOs.
Since GPIO descriptors inherently can describe inversion,
the inversion handling can just be deleted.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
