PWM control

Maverick_by_

Hello.I try to use PWM to control backlight for LVDS LCD display:
/kernel/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3568j-firefly-itxq-lvds_m10r800.dts

backlight:backlight {
        status = "okay";
        enable-gpios = <&pca9555 PCA_IO1_3 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
        compatible = "pwm-backlight";
        pwms = <&pwm15 0 25000 1>;
lvds_panel: lvds-panel {
        enable-gpios = <&pca9555 PCA_IO1_2 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
        backlight = <&backlight>;

}

How can i control this device backlight on pwm15 ?
I tryed:
cat /sys/kernel/debug/pwm
platform/fe700030.pwm, 1 PWM device
pwm-0   (backlight           ): requested enabled period: 25000 ns duty: 19625 ns polarity: inverse
platform/fe700020.pwm, 1 PWM device
pwm-0   ((null)              ): period: 0 ns duty: 0 ns polarity: inverse
platform/fe6e0010.pwm, 1 PWM device
pwm-0   ((null)              ): period: 0 ns duty: 0 ns polarity: inverse
platform/fe6e0000.pwm, 1 PWM device
pwm-0   ((null)              ): period: 0 ns duty: 0 ns polarity: inverse


cd /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/
echo 0 > export
cd pwm0
echo 10000 > period
echo 5000 > duty_cycle
echo normal > polarity
echo 1 > enable

cat /sys/kernel/debug/pwm
platform/fe700030.pwm, 1 PWM device
pwm-0   (backlight           ): requested enabled period: 25000 ns duty: 19625 ns polarity: inverse
platform/fe700020.pwm, 1 PWM device
pwm-0   ((null)              ): period: 0 ns duty: 0 ns polarity: inverse
platform/fe6e0010.pwm, 1 PWM device
pwm-0   ((null)              ): period: 0 ns duty: 0 ns polarity: inverse
platform/fe6e0000.pwm, 1 PWM device
pwm-0   (sysfs               ): requested enabled period: 10000 ns duty: 5000 ns polarity: normal


Now i can control sysfs but not backlight.
How can i control backlight ?

Try this: echo 100 > /sys/class/backlight/backlight/brightness

He has been used, you can not export.

cd /sys/class/backlight/backlight/
cat brightness                                                                                                                                                      
200
echo 50 > brightness

Try this: echo 100 > /sys/class/backlight/backlight/brightness

Thank you a lot ! it works fine now !
Now i have another question - how can i control frequency (and polarity), not only brightness ?

Sure, i can try to change frequency in device tree file in pwms = <&pwm15 0 25000 1>:
/kernel/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3568j-firefly-itxq-lvds_m10r800.dts

backlight:backlight {
        status = "okay";
        enable-gpios = <&pca9555 PCA_IO1_3 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
        compatible = "pwm-backlight";
        pwms = <&pwm15 0 25000 1>;
}

Yes Sure, i changed frequency (period) to 50000 ns in device tree file in pwms = <&pwm15 0 50000 1>:
/kernel/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3568j-firefly-itxq-lvds_m10r800.dts
Then i built kernel and wrote firmware to SOM and everything works fine
