When hid-led was written it was needed to add the LED devices to hid_have_special_driver list.
Else the driver can't take control over the device. Side effect is that even if hid-led
isn't loaded hid-generic can't take control.
I think since e04a0442d33b ("HID: core: remove the absolute need of hid_have_special_driver[]")
it's no longer needed to have the LED devices in hid_have_special_driver.
Could you please test the following patch? If hid-led is loaded is should control the
device, if it's blacklisted hid-generic should have the control.

Thanks for the offer, I've got a blink(1) already. Just tested the patch with this device

Re: Linux "hid_led" vs "hidraw" USB HID question

Hi Heiner, (and others on the list)

Thanks for your quick and detailed response. 

I am endeavoring to try the patch out now.  But I've not built a desktop Linux kernel or kernel modules in about 15 years.  Do you have a preferred recipe for applying this patch to an existing distro?  Since 'hid-quirks' isn't a module, this means recompiling the entire HID driver, correct?  I mostly test against various modern Ubuntu or Raspian flavors of Debian, if that matters.

Also, is there a mitigation for users running production distros that doesn't involve a recompile? 

Thanks,
-=Tod

I don't think so (at least from kernel perspective). What you could do is adding an integration with
the /sys/class/led interface in your library (if it should be suitable for your use cases) and
auto-detect which interface to use.

Re: Linux "hid_led" vs "hidraw" USB HID question

[Tod E. Kurt]

Hi Heiner,

Yes, that was what I was starting from. I was hoping there was now an in-situ way of replacing kernel modules without a full kernel recompile.

I have tried this patch on Raspian 4.19.81 and Ubuntu 19 kernel 5.0.0-32 with no config changes.  I believe it solves the main issue.  However, I'm seeing another problem that I can't explain.

Specifically:
- On reboot, device shows up in /sys/class/hidraw/
- Opening with hidapi and (mis)using hidapi functions works, but,
- Device is then removed from /sys/class/hidraw/

Under what circumstances can a device be removed from /sys/class/hidraw? 

If you'd like to trigger this yourself, run "blink1-tool --list" and see the blink(1) disappear. And yet "blink1-tool" can subsequently still communicate with the blink(1). Which I don't quite understand yet either.

Cheers,
-=Tod

Once a dedicated device driver (like hid-led) is loaded, the raw device disappears.

I compiled blink1-tool on latest linux-next with the hid quirk patch I sent, but the blink(1) never disappears.
According to strace the tool doesn't use the /sys/class/hidraw interface but a low-level USB
interface via libusb.
