Hi Dan,
Thanks for the update. I have a few comments below.

Introduce a multicolor class that groups colored LEDs

The multi color class groups monochrome LEDs and allows controlling two
aspects of the final combined color: hue and lightness. The former is
controlled via <color>_intensity files and the latter is controlled
via brightness file.

+Multi Color LED handling under Linux
+====================================
+
+Description
+===========
+The multi color class groups monochrome LEDs and allows controlling two
+aspects of the final combined color: hue and lightness. The former is
+controlled via the color_intensity array file and the latter is controlled
+via brightness file.
+
+For more details on hue and lightness notions please refer to
+https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIECAM02.
+
+Multicolor Class Control
+========================
+The multicolor class presents files that groups the colors as indexes in an
+array. These files are children under the LED parent node created by the
+led_class framework. The led_class framework is documented in led-class.rst
+within this documentation directory.
+
+Each colored LED will be indexed under the color_* files. The order of the
+colors are arbitrary the color_index file can be read to determine the color
Something wrong with punctuation here, or it is even a stylistic
problem.
Ack and fixed
+to index value.
+
+The color_index file is an array that contains the string list of the colors as
+they are defined in each color_* array file.
+
+The color_intensity is an array that can be read or written to for the
+individual color intensities. All elements within this array must be written in
+order for the color LED intensities to be updated.
+
+The color_max_intensity is an array that can be read to indicate each color LED
+maximum intensity value.
+
+The num_color_leds file returns the total number of color LEDs that are
+presented in each color_* array.
+
+Directory Layout Example
+========================
+root:/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status# ls -lR
+-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Oct 19 16:16 brightness
+-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Oct 19 16:16 color_index
+-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Oct 19 16:16 color_intensity
+-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Oct 19 16:16 num_color_leds
+
+Multicolor Class Brightness Control
+===================================
+The multiclor class framework will calculate each monochrome LEDs intensity.
+
+The brightness level for each LED is calculated based on the color LED
+intensity setting divided by the parent max_brightness setting multiplied by
+the requested brightness.
+
+led_brightness = brightness * color_intensity/max_brightness
+
+Example:
+A user first writes the color_intensity file with the brightness levels
+that for each LED that is necessary to achieve a blueish violet output from a
+RGB LED group.
+
+cat /sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/color_index
+green blue red
+
+echo 43 226 138 > /sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/color_intensity
+
+red -
+ intensity = 138
+ max_brightness = 255
+green -
+ intensity = 43
+ max_brightness = 255
+blue -
+ intensity = 226
+ max_brightness = 255
+
+The user can control the brightness of that RGB group by writing the parent
s/RGB/multicolor/
Ack and fixed throughout the doc
+'brightness' control. Assuming a parent max_brightness of 255 the user may want
+to dim the LED color group to half. The user would write a value of 128 to the
+parent brightness file then the values written to each LED will be adjusted
+base on this value
+
+cat /sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/max_brightness
+255
+echo 128 > /sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/brightness
+
+adjusted_red_value = 128 * 138/255 = 69
+adjusted_green_value = 128 * 43/255 = 21
+adjusted_blue_value = 128 * 226/255 = 113
+
+Reading the parent brightness file will return the current brightness value of
+the color LED group.
+
+cat /sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/brightness

I still have a problem with this fixed array that can grow for each
driver as new color identifiers are added to the LED core. Not
mentioning waste of memory due to unused colors. This is bad design.
I did try to do the dynamic allocation in both the device driver and
framework
When I used this
ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ led->mc_cdev.multitest_info = devm_kzalloc(&priv->client->dev,
ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ struct_size(&led->mc_cdev, multitest_info, num_colors),
ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ ÂÂ GFP_KERNEL);
The compiler complained.
drivers/leds/leds-lp50xx.c: In function âlp50xx_probe_dtâ:
drivers/leds/leds-lp50xx.c:669:31: error: invalid use of flexible array
member

ÂÂÂÂÂ |ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ ^
The pointer was defined as
ÂÂÂ struct led_multicolor_info *multitest_info[];
The led_classdev_mc structure is allocated in the device driver
structure. This struct contains the multicolor_info structure.
Unless I am doing this incorrectly.
