[PATCH v8 0/3] Change PWM-controlled LED pin active mode and algorithm

From: Nylon Chen
Date: Fri Jan 26 2024 - 04:01:48 EST


According to the circuit diagram of User LEDs - RGB described in the
manual hifive-unleashed-a00.pdf[0] and hifive-unmatched-schematics-v3.pdf[1].

The behavior of PWM is acitve-high.

According to the descriptionof PWM for pwmcmp in SiFive FU740-C000 Manual[2].

The pwm algorithm is (PW) pulse active time = (D) duty * (T) period.
The `frac` variable is pulse "inactive" time so we need to invert it.

So this patchset removes active-low in DTS and adds reverse logic to the driver.

Changed in v8:
- Fix Signed-off-by and Co-developed-by typo.

Changed in v7:
- Remove active-low strings from hifive-unleashed-a00.dts file.

Changed in v6:
- Separate the idempotent test bug fixes into a new patch.
- Move the reversing the duty before the line checking
state->enabled.
- Fix the algorithm and change it to take the minimum value first and
then reverse it.

Changed in v5:
- Add the updates to the PWM algorithm based on version 2 back in.
- Replace div64_ul with DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL to correct the error in the
period value of the idempotent test in pwm_apply_state_debug.

Changed in v4:
- Remove previous updates to the PWM algorithm.

Changed in v3:
- Convert the reference link to standard link.
- Move the inverted function before taking the minimum value.
- Change polarity check condition(high and low).
- Pick the biggest period length possible that is not bigger than the
requested period.

Changed in v2:
- Convert the reference link to standard link.
- Fix typo: s/sifive unmatched:/sifive: unmatched:/.
- Remove active-low from hifive-unleashed-a00.dts.
- Include this reference link in the dts and pwm commit messages.
