Hi Oleksandr,
[Adding Jonathan Cameron and Guenter Roeck to Cc]
Apologies for the delay replying to this. In attempting to verify this
made sense I went and read the IIO bindings documentation, and I'm
somewhat confused by the model.
As far as I can see, the only consumer of IIO channels is the
"iio-hwmon" binding, which seems to be a binding for Linux-specific
infrastructure rather than any actual device. This runs counter to the
way DT is supposed to function (describing the hardware rather than how
it's used). As far as I can see, this linkage is described because only
a subset of the ADCs on the device are actually wired to something?
I also see a couple of IIO bindings ("adi,adf435x*, and "adi,ad7303")
which don't describe any iio channel cells at all, so I'm somewhat
confused by what the IIO channels actually represent, and why they must
be consumed elsewhere. As far as I can see, an IIO channel represents a
single ADC's registers in an IIO device, so I'm not sure why this must
be exported via the channel concept -- it's not physically wired.
Have I misunderstood something here?
Thanks,
Mark.
