Using led_set_brightness_sync() only works for LEDs which are connected
via some kind of external bus like I²C or SPI. But it doesn't work for
the simple use case of directly connected LEDs via GPIOs.
Because this function only honors the led_classdev::brightness_set_blocking
callback. But the LED-GPIO driver registers the
led_classdev::brightness_set member if the GPIO can be modified directly
and thus, TTY triggers fail silently with -ENOTSUPP.
With the previously used led_set_brightness() it works for both use cases.
This function first checks for the simple case where the GPIO can be changed
without additional overhead, and if it fails, does the modification via a
workqueue.

Really? I'd need to check.

Yeah, but that is not what we want. We are already running in the
workqueue.
We really should have a API that can be called from process context,
and just simply sets the brightness.
Best regards,
Pavel

This problem still exists, right?
I think the right thing here is to call led_set_brightness_nosleep()
however.
Having said that, I think there are too many variants of
led_set_brightness which makes it difficult to pick the right one.
(I'm aware of
- led_set_brightness_nosleep
- led_set_brightness_nopm
- led_set_brightness_sync
- led_set_brightness
and there are a few more static variants in led-core.c
(__led_set_brightness, __led_set_brightness_blocking,
set_brightness_delayed).)
Best regards
Uwe

This patch (and this response) was never sent to me.
Not a great deal I can do if I'm not aware of it.

Starting to think I've gone too far back in the LEDs ML's history? =;-)
