Two problems kept a new ROCK 4C+ card from working.

The first start stopped at once. Setting the activity LED was the first thing firstboot.sh did. The Armbian kernel has the timer trigger as a module (CONFIG_LEDS_TRIGGER_TIMER=m), the write failed with Invalid argument, and under set -e that ended the first start at every boot: no user, no storage, no squirreld.

• firstboot.sh loads ledtrig-timer and goes on without the LED if that fails.
• squirreld loads the timer module too, as it already did for the pattern trigger.

The car's port missed USB 2. The device tree overlay from the teslausb wiki also set the port's phys to the USB 3 PHY alone. A USB 2 connection (a USB 2 hub, cable or adapter) never showed up. The overlay now only sets dr_mode = "peripheral", and the port keeps both PHYs.

Tested on a ROCK 4C+ (Armbian, kernel 6.18.57):

• The first start ran through, and squirreld runs.
• With the new overlay, a Mac sees the Squirrel USB Drive behind a USB 2 hub (configured, high-speed). With the old overlay it stayed not attached.
• USB 3 and the car itself are not tested yet.
• go test ./... passes, with a new test for a kernel that has the timer trigger as a module.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • LED indicators now check for the timer trigger and attempt to make it available when needed. If that fails, timer-based blinking is skipped without interrupting the script.
  • The USB device-mode overlay continues to configure the upper USB 3 port for peripheral mode while relying on platform-provided controller and PHY settings.

Walkthrough

The USB overlay removes explicit DWC3 properties and retains peripheral mode. LED handling now checks for trigger availability and attempts to load the corresponding kernel module when needed.

Changes: USB device overlay

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Update USB device overlay deploy/armbian/dwc3-0-device.dts	The overlay comment now describes device mode and the USB PHY distinction. The overlay removes explicit DWC3 compatibility, register, PHY, PHY-name, PHY-type, and quirk properties. Its dr_mode setting remains.

LED trigger availability

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Discover and use LED triggers internal/led/led.go, deploy/firstboot.sh, internal/led/led_test.go	A shared trigger check attempts to load ledtrig-<name> when the trigger is unavailable. Timer settings are written only when the timer trigger is available. heartbeat uses the shared check. The firstboot script attempts to load the timer module and suppresses errors from grouped trigger and delay writes. Tests cover failed and successful timer-module loads.

Priority: Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: Low · up to 0a152

The LED can show a stale status after a module-load failure. The change is mergeable with this bounded issue acknowledged or fixed.

Security architecture risk: Low · up to 0a152

This is a limited, device-local change with no demonstrated new attacker-controlled privilege path. Its USB behavior still depends on the installed board image, which was not validated here.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• inferred — The directly changed privileged operations are device-local LED sysfs writes, loading the timer-trigger kernel module, and configuration of the ROCK 4C+ first USB controller. The documented USB workflow remains presentation of the car’s backing drive; effective USB 2 reachability depends on the inherited board configuration.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — The inspected production caller passes the fixed /sys root. LED discovery uses fixed directory candidates, and the private trigger helper receives only timer or pattern. Module loading uses exec.Command with a separate argument, not shell interpolation; no attacker-selected module name was found in this path.

Retry a pattern that was not applied.

If module loading fails, Set has already recorded the requested pattern as current. Later calls with that pattern return without retrying, even if the timer trigger becomes available. The LED can therefore keep showing the wrong state until the pattern changes or the daemon restarts. The daemon requests the pattern every two seconds. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Record the pattern as current only after it is applied. Add a test that retries the same pattern after a failed load.
