This driver creates a userspace leds driver similar to uinput.

New leds are created by opening /dev/uleds and writing a uleds_user_dev
struct. A new leds class device is registered with the name given in the
struct. Reading will return a single byte that is the current brightness.
The poll() syscall is also supported. It will be triggered whenever the
brightness changes.

Here is a sample python program that I used to test that it works as expected.

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import select
from threading import Timer

ULEDS_MAX_NAME_SIZE = 80

name = 'test'


def change_brightness(b):
    with open('/sys/class/leds/{}/brightness'.format(name) , 'w') as f:
       f.write(str(b))


with open('/dev/uleds', 'rb+', 0) as uleds:
    bname = name.encode("ascii")
    # create the leds class device
    uleds.write(bname + b'\0' * (ULEDS_MAX_NAME_SIZE - len(bname)))

    # test that it works
    print(uleds.read(1))

    # schedule some brighness changes at 1 second intervals
    Timer(1, change_brightness, (1,)).start()
    # this won't trigger poll since brighness does not change
    Timer(2, change_brightness, (1,)).start()
    Timer(3, change_brightness, (2,)).start()

    # wait for the scheduled changes
    p = select.poll()
    p.register(uleds.fileno(), select.POLLIN)
    p.poll()
    print(uleds.read(1))
    p.poll()
    print(uleds.read(1))
