OK. At present you can't have it both ways, i.e., SND_HDA_CODEC_REALTEK with no LEDS. That driver apparently wants LEDS.
Thanks but why have I gone for years without LEDS? I do not need LEDS, I do not want LEDS, I do not have LEDS (that are visible, usable, etc).
Please make this selectable instead of forcing more bulk into my kernel.
Kind regards, Udo
Hi Takashi,
Regarding commit 7cdf8c49b1df0a385db06c4f9a5ba1b16510fdcc Author: Takashi Iwai tiwai@suse.de Date: Thu Jun 18 13:08:31 2020 +0200 ALSA: hda: generic: Add a helper for mic-mute LED with LED classdev
and this Kconfig entry:
config SND_HDA_CODEC_REALTEK tristate "Build Realtek HD-audio codec support" select SND_HDA_GENERIC select SND_HDA_GENERIC_LEDS
it seems that LED support is not always wanted (please see above). I.e., user(s) would like to build a kernel without LED support at all.
Can you make it a build option?
thanks.
