* Package name : libpwm Upstream Contact: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koe...@baylibre.com> * License : LGPL + 0BSD Programming Lang: C Description : library and tools for interacting with Linux PWM devices For now the library and tools are mainly development helpers and test tools for writing and maintaining Linux PWM drivers. The library can also be used by applications to simplify controlling a PWM device. Traditionally PWMs are controlled from userspace via /sys/class/pwm, but an alternative kernel interface is currently developed that provides faster and more versatile operation. libpwm can handle both backends and transparently abstracts their API. The library is licensed under LGPL to be usable by any application, the trivial tools are 0BSD to serve also as example code for integration into bigger applications. There is no release available of libpwm yet, but this will be addressed once the kernel bits are set in stone. Best regards Uwe
