* leds: Add options to have GPIO LEDs start on or keep their stateTrent Piepho2009-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There already is a "default-on" trigger but there are problems with it. For one, it's a inefficient way to do it and requires led trigger support to be compiled in. But the real reason is that is produces a glitch on the LED. The GPIO is allocate with the LED *off*, then *later* when the trigger runs it is turned back on. If the LED was already on via the GPIO's reset default or action of the firmware, this produces a glitch where the LED goes from on to off to on. While normally this is fast enough that it wouldn't be noticeable to a human observer, there are still serious problems. One is that there may be something else on the GPIO line, like a hardware alarm or watchdog, that is fast enough to notice the glitch. Another is that the kernel may panic before the LED is turned back on, thus hanging with the LED in the wrong state. This is not just speculation, but actually happened to me with an embedded system that has an LED which should turn off when the kernel finishes booting, which was left in the incorrect state due to a bug in the OF LED binding code. We also let GPIO LEDs get their initial value from whatever the current state of the GPIO line is. On some systems the LEDs are put into some state by the firmware or hardware before Linux boots, and it is desired to have them keep this state which is otherwise unknown to Linux. This requires that the underlying GPIO driver support reading the value of output GPIOs. Some drivers support this and some do not. The platform device binding gains a field in the platform data "default_state" that controls this. There are three constants defined to select from on, off, or keeping the current state. The OpenFirmware binding uses a property named "default-state" that can be set to "on", "off", or "keep". The default if the property isn't present is off.

| | | | | | | | Add an option to preserve LED state when suspending/resuming to the LED gpio driver. Based on a suggestion from Robert Jarzmik. Tested-by: Robert Jarzmik <robert.jarzmik@free.fr> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@linux.intel.com>
* leds: allow led-drivers to use a variable range of brightness valuesGuennadi Liakhovetski2009-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | This patch allows drivers to override the default maximum brightness value of 255. We take care to preserve backwards-compatibility as much as possible, so that user-space ABI doesn't change for existing drivers. LED trigger code has also been updated to use the per-LED maximum.

* leds: Add suspend/resume to the core classRichard Purdie2009-01-08
| | | | | | | Add suspend/resume to the core class and remove all the now unneeded code from various drivers. Originally the class code couldn't support suspend/resume but since class_device can there is no reason for each driver doing its own suspend/resume anymore.
* leds: Make header variable naming consistentWolfram Sang2009-01-08

* leds: Make default trigger fields constTrent Piepho2008-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default_trigger fields of struct gpio_led and thus struct led_classdev are pretty much always assigned from a string literal, which means the string can't be modified. Which is fine, since there is no reason to modify the string and in fact it never is. But they should be marked const to prevent such code from being added, to prevent warnings if -Wwrite-strings is used, when assigned from a constant string other than a string literal (which produces a warning under current kernel compiler flags), and for general good coding practices.

* leds: Add support to leds with readable statusHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2008-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some led hardware allows drivers to query the led state, and this patch adds a hook to let the led class take advantage of that information when available. Without this functionality, when access to the led hardware is not exclusive (i.e. firmware or hardware might change its state behind the kernel's back), reality goes out of sync with the led class' idea of what the led is doing, which is annoying at best. Behaviour for drivers that do not or cannot read the led status is unchanged. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>

* PM: Remove destroy_suspended_device()Rafael J. Wysocki2008-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After 2.6.24 there was a plan to make the PM core acquire all device semaphores during a suspend/hibernation to protect itself from concurrent operations involving device objects. That proved to be too heavy-handed and we found a better way to achieve the goal, but before it happened, we had introduced the functions device_pm_schedule_removal() and destroy_suspended_device() to allow drivers to "safely" destroy a suspended device and we had adapted some drivers to use them. Now that these functions are no longer necessary, it seems reasonable to remove them and modify their users to use the normal device unregistration instead. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
