I'm testing a revised version of this patch that renames the trigger to just 'disk' and updates all documentation and default_trigger definitions to match. I'm also registering the trigger name 'ide-disk' for now so external tools/scripts/distros won't break while a depreciation time is chosen. Once I've verified this behaves on my system, I'm assuming a patch that touches 25 files should be broken up? I'm thinking of submitting in the following chunks: ledtrig-ide-disk to ledtrig-disk documentation updates default-trigger updates Marvell SATA adjusted to call the trigger Any objections or comments on this plan of attack?

Would it make more sense to add a second trigger for SATA instead?I'll leave that up to the led guys, I just wanted to raise the point that the driver could logically support other types of disks, and we should come up with a migration path instead of adding capabilities ad-hoc.I agree with Jason's suggestion. One more thing to consider. If we replace the name, 'ide-disk' or 'ide_disk' with general one, then we should change the value of 'default_trigger' under arch directory also. LED trigger works if the name is matched with trigger name of LED device. Thanks, Milo
