rtlwifi: rtl8192ce: LED initialization
A message that is not in the archive (sent off-list or not yet received): 30703261.17529.1303241985428.JavaMail.root@mail
Hi wireless developers,
The patch at the following link fixes the wireless LED on rtl8192ce devices.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=130247823800466&w=2
However, there is the following Error when compiling against 2.6.38 in Ubuntu natty:
"drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192ce/led.c: In function ‘_rtl92ce_init_led’:drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192ce/led.c:40:6: error: ‘struct rtl_led’ has no member named ‘ledon’ make[5]: *** [drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192ce/led.o] Error 1
"
The driver compiles correctly and the LED works after commenting out the offending line:
wireless-testing.orig/drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192ce/led.c
static void _rtl92ce_init_led(struct ieee80211_hw *hw,
struct rtl_led *pled, enum rtl_led_pin ledpin)
{
pled->hw = hw;
pled->ledpin = ledpin;/* pled->ledon = false; */
}
Is this an appropriate fix?
Best Regards,
Carl Richell

The patch was made for 2.6.39.
For 2.6.38, the routine _rtl92ce_init_led() does not exist, thus some of the other changes in rtl8192ce from .38 to .39 have been put into the driver, but not all. Your change should be OK.
