I am trying to get the drive activity LEDs in my Thecus N5550 NAS working with a standard distribution kernel. These LEDs are controlled by an NXP PCA9532 dimmer, rather than the SiI 3132 SATA controller. I have been able to build the Thecus modules for a standard kernel, and I am able to control the LEDs manually (through their non-standard /proc/thecus_io interface). Thecus uses a modified libata-core.c and libahci.c to control the LEDs, replacing ata_qc_new and ata_qc_free with variants that turn the LEDs on and off. If at all possible, I would prefer not to be this intrusive. Is there any better way to do this?
