Thank you for the new version and thank you for writing this doc, that is
not only helpful for users but also for the review.

Looking at the above I think what you should do is create not 1 but 4
sysfs files like this:

/sys/class/leds/hp_omen::kbd_backlight/zone1_colors
/sys/class/leds/hp_omen::kbd_backlight/zone2_colors
/sys/class/leds/hp_omen::kbd_backlight/zone3_colors
/sys/class/leds/hp_omen::kbd_backlight/zone4_colors

And then a user could do e.g.:

[hans@...lem ~]$ cat /sys/class/leds/hp_omen::kbd_backlight/zone1_colors
#01ff00
[hans@...lem ~]$

And e.g.:

[hans@...lem ~]$ echo #ff0000 > /sys/class/leds/hp_omen::kbd_backlight/zone1_colors

This will make it much easier for users to use and generally
speaking we try to avoid putting binary files in sysfs.

You can take a look at drivers/hid/hid-lg-g15.c and then the
color_store() function for an existing example of parsing
rgb colors in the form of #rrggbb.

Also if you look at lg_g510_kbd_led_write() you see there that
that driver actually emulates a brightness range of 0-255 for

/sys/class/leds/hp_omen::kbd_backlight/brightness

by scaling the user requested zone values by the brightness
value, giving a bigger brightness range in a standard
sysfs interface which is e.g. supported by upower and by
some desktop environments using upower, so that even
without knowing how to control the specific zones users
can still control at least the brightness.

So I think that what you want to do is add:

struct hp_omen_kbd_led {
	struct led_classdev cdev;
	u8 red[4];
	u8 green[4];
	u8 blue[4];
	enum led_brightness brightness;
};

struct hp_omen_kbd_led omen_kbd_led;

And then have 4 zone sysfs files which fill the red, green and blue
arrays (and also fill these with initial values at probe) and
then have an omen_kbd_led_update_zones() function which creates
the 12 bytes you need to send by for each zone calculating the
values similar to this lg_g510_kbd_led_write() code:

        g15->transfer_buf[1] =
                DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(g15_led->red * brightness, 255);
        g15->transfer_buf[2] =
                DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(g15_led->green * brightness, 255);
        g15->transfer_buf[3] =
                DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(g15_led->blue * brightness, 255);

And then on store of a zone, you update the red, green, blue values
for that zone and call omen_kbd_led_update_zones()

and from set_omen_backlight_brightness() you then:

1. Store the brightness
2. Do the on/off setting of the backlight as done already
3. Call omen_kbd_led_update_zones() to update the zones for
   the brightness change

I believe that this will give a much nicer user experience
then the current binary file which sets all 4 zones at once
approach.

Regards,

Hans
