[PATCH v8 0/3] leds: trigger: implement a tty trigger

From: Uwe Kleine-König
Date: Mon Oct 12 2020 - 08:34:25 EST


this is v8 of a series adding support for tty triggers. See patch 3 for
how to use it. The first two patches provide the necessary
infrastructure in the tty subsystem to make the trigger possible.

Changes compared to v7 sent with Message-Id
20200707165958.16522-1-u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx on 7 Jul 2020:

- ensure the worker function doesn't monopolize the context it is
running in
- Add a missing mutex_unlock in an error path

Pavel Machek wondered in reply to v7 if led_set_brightness was a good
idea. I didn't understand the issue and didn't get a reply to my
question. So if this is indeed a problem, this one still persists.

Best regards
Uwe
