Isn't the V4L2 subdev/Media Controller API supposed to provide means for associating flash LEDs with camera sensors? You seem to be insisting on using the sysfs leds interface for that, which is not a primary interface for camera flash AFAICT.

a) subdev/media controller API currently does not provide such means.
Yes, but it should, that's what it was designed for AFAIK.
b) if we have /sys/class/leds interface to userland, it should be useful.
At the same time we shouldn't overcomplicate it with the camera functionality.
c) having flashlight application going through media controller API is a bad joke.
It doesn't have to, maybe I misunderstood what you exactly ask for. Nevertheless what's missing is some user visible name/label for each flash LED, right? Currently enumerating flash LEDs can be done by looking at the function part of /sys/class/leds/<led-controller>:<colour>: <function> path. Could additional information be appended to the <function> part, so user can identify which LED is which? E.g. "flash(rear)", "flash(front)", etc. This could be achieved by simply adding label property in DT. Or is the list of supported <function> strings already standardized? -- Regards, Sylwester -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
