Two patches from David Brownell follow. The first one implements a low-level driver/library for the PWM controller integrated on some newer AVR32- and ARM-based chips from Atmel. The second one uses this library to implement a LED driver with variable brightness.
There's currently no user of this LED driver, but it can be tested on the ATSTK1000 by following the instructions here: http://avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/AtmelPwmDriver Also, PWM functionality in the kernel has been requested by several AVR32 users with custom boards (which we hopefully will see support for in mainline later), and some AT91-based boards may be able to use the PWM LED driver by default given some suitable platform- and board code (David mentioned AT91SAM9263EK.) I'd appreciate some feedback from AT91 people about this.
