Rewrite the whole driver and drop the own code to calculate load average, disk and LAN load. Switch instead to use the in-kernel LED subsystem, which gives us quite some advantages, e.g. - existing triggers for heartbeat and disk/lan activity can be used - users can configre the LEDs at will to any existing trigger via /sys/class/leds - less overhead since we don't need to run own timers - fully integrated in Linux and as such cleaner code. Note that the driver now depends on CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS which has to be built-in and not as module. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
