[PATCH] arm64: dts: qcom: msm8916-samsung-serranove: Add magnetometer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add magnetometer Yamaha YAS537 to the DeviceTree of samsung-serranove.

The YAS537 variant was recently added to the Yamaha YAS magnetometers
driver [1].

In the DeviceTree of samsung-serranove for the Android kernel, there is
unfortunately no information on interrupts or pinctrl [2].

In the Android kernel driver for magnetometer Yamaha YAS537, there is a
device-specific matrix to correct an ellipsoid shape of the measure values
into a sphere shape [3]. This could be converted and applied to a mount-matrix.
However, the current state of the mainline Yamaha YAS537 driver needs
post-process calibration in userspace anyway, as it lacks a formula to center
the measure values around zero. The correction of the ellipsoid into a sphere
can be done in the post-process calibration as well.

A mount-matrix is needed nonetheless. When putting samsung-serranove flat on
a table in portrait orientation heading north, the Yamaha YAS537 magnetometer
axes natively point X+ to north, Y+ to east and Z+ into the ground, which
corresponds to a common way to define the Earth's magnetic field coordinate
system [4]. According to the IIO definition, it should be Y+ to north, X+ to
east and Z+ upwards [5], which corresponds to a common device coordinate system
and eases sensor fusing.
