[PATCH 1/1] thinkpad_acpi: Add support for status (external cover) LED

[PATCH 1/1] thinkpad_acpi: Add support for status (external cover) LED

[Adam Goode]

This allows the control of the red status LED, which is the dot of the "i"
in the word "ThinkPad" on the outside cover of newer models.

In the manual, both this LED and the power LED are referred to as
the "system-status indicators" without distinction between the two, so
I chose "status" as the LED name.

I seem to recall this LED had an ACPI interface that was specific for
it, and allowed it to on/off/sine-wave?

What happens on older Lenovo models (x00, x10, x20 series?)?  I think
the T410 already had it...

Also, please add code to not export it to userspace (as a led class) on
IBM.

I don't know what the ACPI interface looks like, but the lid status
led goes into sine-wave mode during suspend. Note, that the power-led
also goes into sine-wave mode during suspend and is already supported
by thinkpad-acpi's LED code (without the sine-wave feature as far
as I can tell).

"status" looks a bit generic. I suggest "external_lid_status".

Adam, can you prepare an updated patch? I would like to use this
led to notify myself about events (i.e. compilation finished)
while my thinkpad's lid is closed.

Yes, I will definitely prepare a new patch at some point. The only
hardware I have to test this on is an old IBM X40 and the Lenovo X260.
(I have a T410 with a busted screen that I could try it on maybe.) But
not much else.

I don't know if I can get to this in the next few weeks, since I am
travelling. If someone would like to clean up the patch and move
forward without me, no problem. Otherwise I will get to it eventually.


Thanks,

Adam

Could we name it something like external_status or something? "status" is way too generic.
