SubjectRe: [PATCH] asus-wmi: Add support for TUF laptop keyboard RGB
Hi Hans,

Not a problem at all mate (it didn't take long to write), I was
expecting this and intended the patch more as a "let's see where we go".

Thank you for the information on how to handle proper bring-up, it
seems I should be able to use this for both the TUF ACPI controlled
keyboard along with the ROG USB connected keyboards - which would be
excellent for everyone using these laptops. The TUF series of laptops
are relatively nice and simple to work with due to the limited
feature-set, so this is a great starting point.

To ensure I am on the correct footing, using the information provided,
the goal would be to provide the following?

Base RGB setting under:
/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/multi_index
/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/multi_intensity
/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/max_brightness

Extra features under:
/sys/class/leds/asus::kbd_backlight/mode
/sys/class/leds/asus::kbd_backlight/speed
/sys/class/leds/asus::kbd_backlight/direction

Some questions I have:
1. If there is more than one RGB capable keyboard, what happens to
/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status ?
2. There is no way to fetch the current values from the keyboard and
multicolor seems to expect that the current settings can be read - the
issue here I think is that if the keyboard is changed perhaps by
Windows dual-boot then these settings won't match. How would this be
handled?
3. I'm still relatively new to sysfs. Is it possible for sysfs to save
these values (e.g, multicolour) and re-apply on boot?
4. In the case of the ROG USB connected laptop keyboards, some models
have per-key control. How would I enable this using the multicolour
API? Something like:

/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/multi_a_index
/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/multi_a_intensity
/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/multi_left_ctrl_index
/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/multi_left_ctrl_intensity
/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/multi_spacebar_index
/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/multi_spacebar_intensity
/sys/class/leds/multicolor:status/max_brightness (individual or all?)

For these keyboards the USB takes 9-12 packets of 64 bytes, and I've
indexed the locations of colours in each. To be honest I'd very much
like to work out how to do this for per-key as it can potentially save
a lot of time in writing each packet if the kernel is able to batch
writes internally. A single packet for half a row is ~1ms, but can vary
up to 5ms..

4. I'm unsure of how to structure the USB-RGB code.. Would I need to
write an extra driver perhaps?

Kind regards,
Luke.
