As far as I know, there is no canonical list of standard triggers. In addition, what triggers are available also depend on the kernel configuration, so there really is no "standard". Since this is also configurable via sysfs, maybe it should be part of the sysfs ABI document? Either way I believe this will be up to the LED subsystem maintainers.

The idea was we'll consolidate around standardized names and that new users should use 'function' instead. There was discussion around this when adding 'function'. > > Instead, just drop the list and allow free form strings. > > Signed-off-by: Chen-Yu Tsai <wens@csie.org> > --- > .../devicetree/bindings/leds/common.yaml | 21 +------------------ > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 20 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.yaml b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.yaml > index 4c270fde4567..3b3cdab3fc15 100644 > --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.yaml > +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/common.yaml > @@ -79,26 +79,7 @@ properties: > description: > This parameter, if present, is a string defining the trigger assigned to > the LED. > - allOf: > - - $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#definitions/string > - enum: > - # LED will act as a back-light, controlled by the framebuffer system > - - backlight > - # LED will turn on (but for leds-gpio see "default-state" property in > - # Documentation/devicetree/bindings/leds/leds-gpio.yaml) > - - default-on > - # LED "double" flashes at a load average based rate > - - heartbeat > - # LED indicates disk activity > - - disk-activity > - # LED indicates IDE disk activity (deprecated), in new implementations > - # use "disk-activity" > - - ide-disk > - # LED flashes at a fixed, configurable rate > - - timer > - # LED alters the brightness for the specified duration with one software > - # timer (requires "led-pattern" property) > - - pattern > + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#definitions/string > > led-pattern: > description: | > -- > 2.26.0 >
