Hi Ezequiel,
Thanks for the patch. I've tested it on exynos4412-trats2 board
with leds-aat1290 driver, by executing:
echo "c" > /proc/sysrq-trigger
I was able to notice the blinking then.
Applied to the for-next branch of linux-leds.git.
Notice that we currently need LEDs to be dedicated
to the panic trigger, which is pretty lame as LEDs
are scarce and are most likely assigned to something else.
So, here's a toy patch to switch all the installed LEDs
to the panic trigger on kernel panic. Patch is half-baked,
but it shows the idea.
(Interestingly, it also blinks the LEDs on a USB keyboard!)
Is there any value in polishing this and find a way upstream?
I like the idea, but I'd rather explicitly mark LEDs as panic
indicators.
How about adding a "kernel-panic-indicator" Device Tree property to
common LED bindings? LED class device could be registered for the
panic trigger on kernel panic notification only when the property is
present.
Adding Rob, Mark and devicetree list.
