It dose not support any advanced feature such as configure the temperature when system should be reset. So if we adapt it, we will access the register form both TSADC IIO driver and thermal driver. I don't thank this is a good ideal. In fact, we should ignore the "ADC" stuff. This sensor use ADC internal, but it is transparent to software, especially in automatic mode. > >> So, I do not agree to write a generic adc driver for the rk3288-tsadc. >> >> ________________________________ >> Yifeng Zhao >> >> -- 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
