[PATCH 0/3] Add a new LED trigger for kernel panics (and use it)

[Ezequiel Garcia]

This patchset adds a very simple kernel panic LED trigger,
by hooking into panic_blink. I've tested this trigger on
ARM Armada XP OpenBlocks AX3-4 machine.

The trigger is then used to replace the open-coded panic_blink
usage in GTA02 board.

Note that I don't have a GTA02 board, so the last patch is only
built tested.

[PATCH 1/3] leds: trigger: Introduce a kernel panic LED trigger

[Ezequiel Garcia]

This commit introduces a new LED trigger which allows to configure
a LED to blink on a kernel panic (through panic_blink).

Notice that currently the Openmoko FreeRunner (GTA02) mach code
sets panic_blink to blink a hard-coded LED. The new trigger is
meant to introduce a generic mechanism to achieve this.

[PATCH 1/3] leds: trigger: Introduce a kernel panic LED trigger

[Jacek Anaszewski]

Hi Ezequiel,

Thanks for the patch. I've tested it on exynos4412-trats2 board
with leds-aat1290 driver, by executing:

echo "c" > /proc/sysrq-trigger

I was able to notice the blinking then.

Applied to the for-next branch of linux-leds.git.

Thanks,
Jacek Anaszewski

Notice that we currently need LEDs to be dedicated
to the panic trigger, which is pretty lame as LEDs
are scarce and are most likely assigned to something else.

So, here's a toy patch to switch all the installed LEDs
to the panic trigger on kernel panic. Patch is half-baked,
but it shows the idea.

(Interestingly, it also blinks the LEDs on a USB keyboard!)

Is there any value in polishing this and find a way upstream?

I like the idea, but I'd rather explicitly mark LEDs as panic
indicators.

How about adding a "kernel-panic-indicator" Device Tree property to
common LED bindings? LED class device could be registered for the
panic trigger on kernel panic notification only when the property is
present.

Adding Rob, Mark and devicetree list.

"name" parameter is not required, since setting other trigger than panic
on kernel panic doesn't make sense.

Of course we would need similar solution for ACPI based platforms,
however I am not sure if this approach is feasible in that case, since
device configuration data is enclosed in firmware then.
Adding linux-acpi list.
