/etc/inc/led.inc functions are not doing the right thing on 6100
0%
Description
At various points of the boot process, the LEDs are supposed to flash with different patterns to indicate stages of boot- initializing interfaces, bootup complete, etc
On the 6100, I don't think these are working as expected. Mostly due to the /dev/led/* devices not matching this pattern which is at the top of /etc/inc/led.inc
$led_root = "/dev/led/led";
example, I believe the func below is supposed to set a single blue LED to "ON" and the others off, but it's not working on the 6100. At least as of 22.01.a.20211126.0600, it ends up with a slow blue blinking LED on the right side (diamond):

The LEDs on the 6100 and several other models are diven by GPIO and adjusted via a special script. They do not use the LED drivers handled via led.inc.
The script is at /usr/local/sbin/pfSense-led.sh on a pfSense Plus software installation, and gets called from various places in the Plus code appropriately.
