Die Blinkenlights
Need to control backplane lights
  • many standards: SES-2, SGPIO
  • support and features vary by driver and backplane
Agnoistic approach:
  • allow drivers to create new ctl files
    regular ctl interface can't output
  • abstraction saved till later
Sdorion creates a led cfl file
  • status driven externally
Example: check led status and fail drive
      chula# cat led
      normal
      chula# echo fail>led; cat led
      fail
