Would be interesting to try to implement. Disabling LEDs (entirely) looks pretty driver specific. The rtl8366 (variants), rtl8367 and ar8327 seem to implement in the driver, the blinkrate controls. For example, on the b53 driver there is no control for LEDs whatsoever, though technically the chip may support it. Looking a bit into the driver (referenced in your blog): https://github.com/lede-project/source/blob/master/target/linux/generic/files/drivers/net/phy/rtl8366s.c#L901 It looks like there is some per-port control of the led mode. Though, I haven't found anything detailing those modes. So you could try out a few variants with swconfig dev rtl8366s port X set led Y (or something like that) _______________________________________________ Lede-dev mailing list Lede-dev@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/lede-dev
