PDM is a continuous real time stream dedicated to audio record and must be handled in ASOC ( codec Dmic part driver is /sound/soc/codec/dmic.c). DMIC example: http://www.st.com/content/ccc/resource/technical/document/datasheet/47/bd/d2/13/8d/fd/48/26/DM00121815.pdf/files/DM00121815.pdf/jcr:content/translations/en.DM00121815.pdf Form my point of view it very strange to handle DMICs in IIO, as it is not designed to support audio streams.it is two separate features that are not compatible. Now, from software point of view That would means that IIO declares ADCs that it can not expose, because DMIC is not IIO standard. But IIO inkern API needs that device is declared... So i should define a specific API in IIO for ASOC driver. >>>> Signed-off-by: Arnaud Pouliquen <arnaud.pouliquen@xxxxxx> >>>> --- >>>> drivers/mfd/Kconfig | 11 + >>>> drivers/mfd/Makefile | 2 + >>>> drivers/mfd/stm32-dfsdm-reg.h | 220 +++++++++ >>>> drivers/mfd/stm32-dfsdm.c | 1044 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ >>>> include/linux/mfd/stm32-dfsdm.h | 324 ++++++++++++ >>>> 5 files changed, 1601 insertions(+) >>>> create mode 100644 drivers/mfd/stm32-dfsdm-reg.h >>>> create mode 100644 drivers/mfd/stm32-dfsdm.c >>>> create mode 100644 include/linux/mfd/stm32-dfsdm.h >>>> >>>> diff --git a/drivers/mfd/Kconfig b/drivers/mfd/Kconfig >>>> index c6df644..4bb660b 100644 >>>> --- a/drivers/mfd/Kconfig >>>> +++ b/drivers/mfd/Kconfig >>>> @@ -1607,6 +1607,17 @@ config MFD_STW481X >>>> in various ST Microelectronics and ST-Ericsson embedded >>>> Nomadik series. >>>> >>>> +config MFD_STM32_DFSDM >>>> + tristate "ST Microelectronics STM32 DFSDM" >>>> + depends on (ARCH_STM32 && OF) || COMPILE_TEST >>>> + select MFD_CORE >>>> + select REGMAP >>>> + select REGMAP_MMIO >>>> + help >>>> + Select this option to enable the STM32 Digital Filter >>>> + for Sigma Delta Modulators (DFSDM) driver used >>>> + in various STM32 series. >>>> + >>>> menu "Multimedia Capabilities Port drivers" >>>> depends on ARCH_SA1100 >>> >>> [...] >>> >> >> Regards >> Arnaud > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
