LP55xx driver uses not firmware file but raw data to load program data through the firmware interface.(Documents/leds/leds-lp55xx.txt) For example, run blinking green channel pattern, echo 2 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine # 2 is for green channel echo "RGB" > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/engine_mux # engine mux for RGB echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5562/loading echo "4000600040FF6000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5562/data echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5562/loading echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine However, '/sys/class/firmware/<device name>' is not created after firmware load user helper was introduced. LP55xx driver requires not only enabling CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK but also option, 'FW_OPT_USERHELPER'. When _request_firmware() is invoked, this option enables to load raw data manually (aka, fw_load_from_user_helper() is called) The second parameter 'uevent' of request_firmware_nowait() is used for this option, 'FW_OPT_USERHELPER'.
