This patch sends a uevent (KOBJ_CHANGE) on the pwmchipN device,
everytime a pwmX channel has been exported/unexported via sysfs. This
allows udev to implement rules on such events, like:
SUBSYSTEM=="pwm*", PROGRAM="/bin/sh -c '\
chown -R root:gpio /sys/class/pwm && chmod -R 770 /sys/class/pwm;\
chown -R root:gpio
/sys/devices/platform/soc/*.pwm/pwm/pwmchip* && chmod -R 770
/sys/devices/platform/soc/*.pwm/pwm/pwmchip*\
'"
This is a replacement patch for commit 7e5d1fd75c ("pwm: Set class for
exported channels in sysfs"), see [1].
basic testing:
$ udevadm monitor --environment &
$ echo 0 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/export
KERNEL[197.321736] change /devices/.../pwm/pwmchip0 (pwm)
ACTION=change
DEVPATH=/devices/.../pwm/pwmchip0
EXPORT=pwm0
SEQNUM=2045
SUBSYSTEM=pwm

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
