Hi, this is v4 of my RFC adding support for LEDs connected to Marvell PHYs. Please note that if you want to test this, you still need to first apply the patch adding the LED private triggers support from Pavel's tree. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pavel/linux-leds.git/commit/?h=for-next&id=93690cdf3060c61dfce813121d0bfc055e7fa30d What I still don't like about this is that the LEDs created by the code don't properly support device names. LEDs should have name in format "device:color:function", for example "eth0:green:activity". The code currently looks for attached netdev for a given PHY, but at the time this happens there is no netdev attached, so the LEDs gets names without the device part (ie ":green:activity"). This can be addressed in next version by renaming the LED when a netdev is attached to the PHY, but first a API for LED device renaming needs to be proposed. I am going to try to do that. This would also solve the same problem when userspace renames an interface. And no, I don't want phydev name there. Changes since v3: - addressed some of Andrew's suggestions - phy_hw_led_mode.c renamed to phy_led.c - the DT reading code is now also generic, moved to phy_led.c and called from phy_probe - the function registering the phydev-hw-mode trigger is now called from phy_device.c function phy_init before registering genphy drivers - PHY LED functionality now depends on CONFIG_LEDS_TRIGGERS Changes since v2: - to share code with other drivers which may want to also offer PHY HW control of LEDs some of the code was refactored and now resides in phy_hw_led_mode.c. This code is compiled in when config option LED_TRIGGER_PHY_HW is enabled. Drivers wanting to offer PHY HW control of LEDs should depend on this option. - the "hw-control" trigger is renamed to "phydev-hw-mode" and is registered by the code in phy_hw_led_mode.c - the "hw_control" sysfs file is renamed to "hw_mode" - struct phy_driver is extended by three methods to support PHY HW LED control - I renamed the various HW control modes offeret by Marvell PHYs to conform to other Linux mode names, for example the "1000/100/10/else" mode was renamed to "1Gbps/100Mbps/10Mbps", or "recv/else" was renamed to "rx" (this is the name of the mode in netdev trigger).
