Shouldn't the led return to the line controlled steady state?
Sorry I do not understand your question.
Set an invert variable to true if state was TTY_LED_ENABLE before it
got set
to TTY_LED_BLINK
No matter whether the LED is on or off beforehand. I understand that
the
LED is always on for the first half of the period and off for the rest
of
the period. I think that is correct and I don't need to make a
distinction
via invert here. I hope I have understood your comment correctly here.
How do interval and the frequency of ledtrig_tty_work() relate?
The work is twice as long as of the interval. So the variable
LEDTRIG_TTY_INTERVAL = 50 and the work is scheduled
LEDTRIG_TTY_INTERVAL * 2.
But that was also before my change.
This explains why you don't necessarily need to invert the blink.
If E.g. both CTS and TX are configured I would expect to see the led
turn on
once CTS actives and then blink off when something is transmitted.
After that
I expect to see the led still on because CTS is still active.
The evaluation starts again with the next iteration of the work.
And if no data was transferred but CTS was set, the LED is enabled again
but does not flash.
Now only because the work interval is 2*LEDTRIG_TTY_INTERVAL and the
blink
uses an interval of LEDTRIG_TTY_INTERVAL for both on and off the user
doesn't
notice any difference except maybe a bit of delay of the blink.
That is correct
If either the work schedule was larger than 2*LEDTRIG_TTY_INTERVAL or
the on
interval would differ from the off interval the behaviour would differ
noticably.
This is why I recommend to use an invert variable that is set to true
when
the previous state was TTY_LED_ENABLE.
In the next patch round, I will save the state of the LED and evaluate
whether
I need to invert the LED if the state of the LED has been set to blink.
