Some RJ-45 connectors have one green/yellow LED wired in the following way: green +--|>|--+ | | A---+--|<|--+---B yellow But semantically this is still just one (multi-color) LED (for example it can be controlled by HW as one dual-LED). This is a case that we do not support in device tree bindings; setting color = <LED_COLOR_ID_MULTI>; or color = <LED_COLOR_ID_RGB>; is wrong, because those are meant for when the controller can mix the "channels", while for our case only one "channel" can be active at a time. Change the `color` property to accept an (non-empty) array of colors to indicate this case. Example: ethernet-phy { led@0 { reg = <0>; color = <LED_COLOR_ID_GREEN LED_COLOR_ID_YELLOW>; function = LED_FUNCTION_ID_LAN; trigger-sources = <ð0>; }; }; Signed-off-by: Marek Behún <kabel@xxxxxxxxxx> --- .../devicetree/bindings/leds/common.yaml | 16 ++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.yaml b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.yaml index 03759d2e125a..492dd3e7f9ac 100644 --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.yaml +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.yaml @@ -37,13 +37,21 @@ properties: $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/string color: - description: + description: | Color of the LED.
