Some switches have two separate LEDs per port, others only one multi-colored LED. For controlling these LEDs, this however does not make any difference. In order to control so many different LEDs, normally a serial bus with PINs LED_CLK (122 on the RTL838x) and LED_DAT (123) is used for the port status LEDs, while a few other LEDs can be controlled directly by the SoC. In particular on the RTL838x SoCs with their very few available GPIOs, this is normally only the System LED. The power led is normally not SoC controllable. There are several different ways how the LEDs can be controlled by this serial bus. The bus itself can be in SCAN mode (with different LED numbers) or SERIAL mode. In any case the serial information needs to be converted in order to drive the respective LED. There are two different converters found on the RTL83xx boards: 74HC164 shift registers and [[RTL8231]] GPIO expanders. The shift-registers only work with the serial mode, whereas the RTL8231 supports both serial and scan mode. The scan-mode actually is an I2C-like mode, called SMI mode by Realtek. For the RTL SoCs, the port LEDs are typically automatically controlled by the SoC (ASIC) using the serial bus. The configuration is partially defined by strapping pins, and by several LED control registers. On the RTL839x, the serial interface is initially configured by strapping pins 156 and 157: * 0b00 Serial LED mode * 0b01: SCAN single mode * 0b10: SCAN Bi-color mode * 0b11: disable LED. The setup of the LED configuration is normally done by U-Boot and does not need to be changed by Linux, unless manual control of the LEDs is necessary, for example if some of the port-LEDs have special purposes. U-Boot configures the LEDs in ''board/Realtek/switch/rtk/mac/rtl8380/rtl8380_init.c''. The configuration values for different boards can be found in ''boot/u-boot-2011.12/board/Realtek/switch/rtk/conf/''. Both the RTL838x and the RTL839x have a LED control register, named ''RTL83XX_LED_GLB_CTRL'', which allows to enable and configure the serial LED interface and control the system LED. Manual control seems necessary in case where serially connected LEDs are not used as port-leds (such as additional status LEDs for PoE, "cloud connection" and the like). In that case it appears that the setup of all the serial LEDs is too complex to be controlled by the SoC alone. The user needs to disable SoC control over **all** the serially connected LEDs in that case. On both the RTL839x and RTL838x, software control is enabled by setting the respective bits in the ''RTL83XX_LED_SW_P_EN_CTRL(port)'' register. One of these registers holds the settings for 10 ports and 3 bits define the state of the LED: * 0x0: SoC controls LED * 0x1: One Single Color LED connected here * 0x3: Bi-color LED * 0x7: Tri-color LED It is unclear why 2 bits would not be sufficient for this. ==== LEDs and GPIO expanders on the RTL838x ==== The power LED can be set to different blinking modes with register ''RTL8380_LED_MODE_SEL (0xBB001004)'', bits 2 and 3. Bits 0 and 1 seem to be controlled by strapping and define the way the Power LED is controlled. === RTL8380 external LED and GPIO registers === These registers are at a base address of ''0xBB00A000''. ^ Offset ^ Name ^ Description ^ | 0x00 | [[#Global LED control|LED_GLB_CTRL]] | | | 0x04 | [[#Port LED mode control|LED_MODE_CTRL]] | | | 0x08 | ''LED_P_EN_CTRL'' | Bit mask indicating which LEDs are ASIC controlled.

A hardware peripheral is present that can keep track of the state of one (or two on RTL93xx) RTL8231 chip(s). The SoC's have dedicated pins and controllers for this task. For rtl930x C1 `LED_MDC` and C2 `LED_MDIO` For rtl931x, AL18 `LED_MDC` and AK18 `LED_MDIO`. This does require the RTL8231 connected to only function as a LED expander. This should not be confused with the dedicated `EXT_GPIO_MDxx` pins!

Field values can be 0-31 and indicate a state matching condition. "Link" will turn the LED on, "Act" will briefly toggle the LED on link activity, with the default state depending on a "Link" specifier. Any speed specifier will narrow the match down to only those speeds.

Used to send and receive SMI data frames to an external device. Note that there is no indication of command failure, this has to be determined from the register values. ^ Bits ^ Field desciption ^ | 31-16 | Frame data.

Address of the device to be accessed. | | 1 | Operation bit. Set to 0 for read requests, 1 for write requests. | | 0 | Execute bit. Set to 1 to perform the request. Will self-clear after the command is completed or times out. | === Port LED status registers === Up to five 3-bit status fields are packed into half-words. For LED0 for example, MAC 0-19 are in the first two registers (0xAC, 0xB0), MAC 20-23 in third (0xB4), and MAC 24-31 in the fourth/high register (0xD0). The high register divides the eight MAC evenly over both half words, putting four (24-27) in the lowest 16 bit, and four (28-31) in the highest 16 bit. ^ Bits ^ MAC LED status ^ | 0-2 | MAC 16*n + 0 for (n < 3) | | 3-5 | MAC 16*n + 1 for (n < 3) | | 6-8 | MAC 16*n + 2 for (n < 3) | | 9-11 | MAC 16*n + 3 for (n < 3) | | 12-14 | MAC 16*n + 4 for (n < 2) | | 15 | reserved | | 16-18 | MAC 16*n + 5 for (n < 2), MAC 16*n + 4 for (n = 3) | | 19-21 | MAC 16*n + 6 for (n < 2), MAC 16*n + 5 for (n = 3) | | 22-24 | MAC 16*n + 7 for (n < 2), MAC 16*n + 6 for (n = 3) | | 25-27 | MAC 16*n + 8 for (n < 2), MAC 16*n + 7 for (n = 3) | | 28-30 | MAC 16*n + 9 for (n < 2) | | 31 | reserved | ==== LEDs on the RTL839x ==== On the RTL839x ''RTL8390_LED_GLB_CTRL'' has the following bits: * Bits 0-1: Interface selection: Defined by board config variable ''pModel->led.led_if_sel'': * ''LED_IF_SEL_SERIAL'': 0 * ''LED_IF_SEL_SINGLE_COLOR_SCAN'': 1 * ''LED_IF_SEL_BI_COLOR_SCAN'': 2 * Bits 2-3: LED number selection: Number of LEDs per port, configured from ''pModel->led.num'' * Bit 4: LED MDIO-Clock duty (cycle?) * Bit 5: Enable LEDs.
