It is surprising for a PWM consumer when the variable holding the requested state is modified by pwm_apply_state(). Consider for example a driver doing: #define PERIOD 5000000 #define DUTY_LITTLE 10 ... struct pwm_state state = { .period = PERIOD, .duty_cycle = DUTY_LITTLE, .polarity = PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL, .enabled = true, }; pwm_apply_state(mypwm, &state); ... state.duty_cycle = PERIOD / 2; pwm_apply_state(mypwm, &state); For sure the second call to pwm_apply_state() should still have state.period = PERIOD and not something the hardware driver chose for a reason that doesn't necessarily apply to the second call. So declare the state argument as a pointer to a const type and adapt all drivers' .apply callbacks.

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. 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.
