Morning Andy,

Thanks for the review.

Support for the ROHM BM1390 pressure sensor. The BM1390GLV-Z can measure
pressures ranging from 300 hPa to 1300 hPa with configurable measurement
averaging and internal FIFO. The sensor does also provide temperature
measurements.

Sensor does also contain IIR filter implemented in HW. The data-sheet
says the IIR filter can be configured to be "weak", "middle" or
"strong". Some RMS noise figures are provided in data sheet but no
accurate maths for the filter configurations is provided. Hence, the IIR
filter configuration is not supported by this driver and the filter is
configured to the "middle" setting (at least not for now).

The FIFO measurement mode is only measuring the pressure and not the
temperature. The driver measures temperature when FIFO is flushed and
simply uses the same measured temperature value to all reported
temperatures. This should not be a problem when temperature is not
changing very rapidly (several degrees C / second) but allows users to
get the temperature measurements from sensor without any additional logic.

Out of a sudden int64_t instead of u64?

Judging the iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp() and iio_get_time_ns(), IIO operates with signed timestamps. One being s64, the other int64_t.

Or u8 instead of uint8_t?

So, uint8_t is preferred? I don't really care all that much which of these to use - which may even show up as a lack of consistency... I think I did use uint8_t when I learned about it - but at some point someone somewhere asked me to use u8 instead.. This somewhere might have been u-boot though...

So, are you Suggesting I should replace u8 with uint8_t? Can do if it matters.

Why?! Just use proper bitwise type.

What is the proper bitwise type in this case?

I'll explain my reasoning:
What we really have in hardware (BM1390) and read from it is 8bit registers. This is u8 to me. And as we read two consecutive registers, we use u8 arr[2]. In my eyes it describes the data perfectly well, right?

+	temp_raw = (__be16 *)&temp_reg[0];

Heck no. Make temp_reg be properly typed.

As I explained above, to me it seems ur arr[2} is _the_ proper type to represent data we read from the device.

What we need to do is to convert the 16bits of data to an integer we can give to the rest of the system. And, we happen to know how to 'manipulate' the data to get it in format of understandable integer. As we have these 16 bits in memory, aligned to 2 byte boundary - why shouldn't we just 'manipulate' the data and say - here we have your integer, please be my guest and use it?

Well, I am keen to learn the 'correct bitwise type' you talk about - can you please explain me what this correct type for two 8bit integers is? Maybe I can improve.

In this case assign _all_ values explicitly. Currently it's prone to errors
if somebody squeezed a value in between.

Agree. This is a good practice. Thanks. (although, it shouldn't really matter here as nobody really should squeeze a value in between as enum is short and we have this just comment above).

Wouldn't you like to start using cleanup.h?

The new macro "thingee" for C++ destructor like constructs?

TBH, I am not really in a rush with it for two reasons.
1) The syntax looks very alien to me. I would like to get some time to get used to it before voluntarily ending up maintaining a code using it. (I don't like practicing things upstream as practicing tends to include making more errors).

2. Related to 1). I am not (yet) convinced incorporating changes in stuff using these cleanups is easy. I'm a bit reserved and would like to see how things play out.

3. I expect I will get a few requests to backport the code to some older kernels used by some big customers. (I've been doing plenty of extra work when backporting my kernel improvements like regmap_irq stuff, linear ranges, regulator pickable ranges, gts-helpers to customer kernels to get my drivers working - or working around the lack of thiose features. I have been willing to pay this prize to get those helpers upstream for everyone to use. The cleanup.h however is there so it does not _need_ new users. I don't think _all_ existing drivers will be converted to use it so one more should probably not hurt. I think that in a year at least some customers will be using kernel containing the cleanup.h - so by latest then it is time for me to jump on that train. I hope I am used to reading those macros by then).

cleanup.h makes these goto:s unneeded.

Why not switch-case like other drivers do?

In my eyes avoiding the very simple if - else if does not warrant nested switches which look ugly to me.

Why not usual pattern?

I see your point, ok.

Unneeded blank line.

+	}

+	if (!smp_lvl)
+		return ret;

This can be checked first as it's and error condition

I wouldn't say it is an error condition. It just means there was no samples collected in buffer.

 and previous branch has
no side effects on this. Also, wouldn't be better to use error code explicitly?

Yes. For the clarity we definitely should explicitly do "return 0" here. Thanks.

This needs a comment: Why we have a dead code.

Oh, thanks! This really, rather requires a clean-up. It looks like a left over from the version where I supported setting the number of samples to average.

This ret is never used, what's going on here?

Thanks. I need to revise this :)

One blank line is enough.

We do not put blank lines at the end of functions.

Yet another redundant blank line. I dunno how you manage to almost in every
second attempt to randomly place blank lines here and there... I feel like
a conspiracy theory against myself :-)

Oh, dang. My plot is revealed :)

Ditto.

Do you expect anything than 0 here?

No, not really. Thanks!
