<title>Description</title>
<para><filename>systemd-backlight@.service</filename> is a service that restores the brightness of
a display backlight or LED (e.g. keyboard backlight) device at early boot, and saves it at shutdown.
The brightness is stored in <filename>/var/lib/systemd/backlight/</filename>.</para>
<para>On restoring brightness of a display backlight device, <command>systemd-backlight</command> reads
<varname>ID_BACKLIGHT_CLAMP</varname> udev property, that takes a boolean value or a percentage (needs to
be suffixed with <literal>%</literal>, e.g. <literal>30%</literal>). When a percentage is specified, the
saved brightness is clamped to a value of at least 1 or the specified percentage of the maximum
brightness, whichever is greater. When unset or set to true, the brightness is clamped in the same way
with percentage 5%. When false, the saved brightness will not be clamped, and loaded as is.</para>
<para>On restoring brightness of a LED device, <command>systemd-backlight</command> reads
<varname>ID_LEDS_CLAMP</varname> udev property, that also takes a boolean value or a percentage. When a
percentage is specified, the saved brightness is clamped to the specified percentage of the maximum
brightness. When set to true, the brightness is clamped in the same way with percentage 5%. When unset or
set to false, the saved brightness will not be clamped, and loaded as is.</para>
