Hi!

Kernel 5.1.0-rc1 + some unrelated bits.

I tried adding
https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=151622365715313&q=raw as Jacek
suggested, and it is still broken.

Test code is this: ledtest actually works as expected on first try,
but keeps blinking on second run. Strange.

Did it work for previous releases? If yes, then bisect should help here.

Absolutely no idea :-(. I assume "no". Capslock LED on the same system
works as expected.

I still hope thinkpad people will speak up, notice it does not work
for them, and debug it :-).

I see this driver implements blink_set:

tpacpi_leds[led].led_classdev.blink_set = &led_sysfs_blink_set;

and also applies some internal logic related to the type
of supported LEDs, and the way how the hardware is accessed.

To eliminate the problem on the LED core side you could
disable initialization of blink_set op in the driver.
