There are only 8 possible channels, at indices 0 to 7, so why is the
pattern property more permissive than that? Shouldn't "^channel@[0-7]$"
suffice?

Hmm, this makes me wonder: why doesn't this match the number of channels
available and why is 0 not a valid channel for differential measurements?
Thanks,
Conor.
Hello and thank you for the feedback!
I will change the pattern property and the description.
Regarding the channels, I followed the existing style of the driver for
the AD7194 channels: one iio channel for each pseudo-differential input
channel(AINx - AINCOM), summing up to 16 channels; and one iio channel
for each differential channel (AINx - AINy), summing up to 8 channels.
For the diff-channels, I thought the possible values should be 1->16
corresponding to AIN1->AIN16 (I will add this to the description as
suggested by David).
Kind regards,
