Thanks for the reply.
I had added the entries for gpio pin 9 for both controllers(I was not sure
with controller's pin is connected to LED, but now I know it is pin no. 233
i.e 224+9) in the mpc8377_rdb.dts file. Below is a portion of my dts file, I
have attached the complete dts file as attachment.
immr@e0000000 {[...]
* led@0 {
compatible = "gpio-leds";
label = "hdd";
gpios = <&gpio1 9 0>;
};What kernel version you look at? Please see the latest kernel, it has MCU GPIO LED nodes already, and you can just add some additional nodes. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=arch/powerpc/boot/dts/mpc8377_rdb.dts#l490 [...]
Also I have enabled drivers/leds/leds-gpio.c in my kernel. To test whether
the leds entires in dts file get attached to leds-gpio driver, I added
printks in the probe function of the driver.
static int gpio_led_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
struct gpio_led_platform_data *pdata = pdev->dev.platform_data;
struct gpio_led *cur_led;
struct gpio_led_data *leds_data, *led_dat;
int i, ret = 0;
*printk(KERN_INFO "led: inside gpio_led_probe.\n");*You have put the printk into the wrong function. It should have been of_gpio_leds_probe(): http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=drivers/leds/leds-gpio.c#l227 If you don't have that function then you use too old kernel.
