Hi Jonathan,
Thank you for finding the time to fix up the inline comments from the
previous rounds! I have created a patch for that but was unable to send it
yet because I'm still clueless about the temp channel. Apologies about that
About the temperature channel, it does make sense to set it as input since the
value is read-only. About the implementation of the channel, I'm wondering
what would happen if the consumer-get-channel would throw -EPROBE_DEFER
half the time? Is it not possible to skip it over since the channel is optional
anyway? Or does this defer error from the consumer mean that the other
configurations for the succeeding attributes will be blocked, which is why we
have to return probe instantly?
Or perhaps we can throw a warning instead if a defer error is thrown?
state->tmp_adc_channel = devm_iio_channel_get(dev, "ad8460-tmp");
if (IS_ERR(state->tmp_adc_channel)) {
state->tmp_adc_channel = NULL;
indio_dev->channels = ad8460_channels;
indio_dev->num_channels = ARRAY_SIZE(ad8460_channels);
} else {
ret = iio_get_channel_type(state->tmp_adc_channel, &temp);
if (ret < 0)
return ret;
if (temp != IIO_TEMP)
return dev_err_probe(dev, -EINVAL,
"Incompatible channel type %d\n", temp);
indio_dev->channels = ad8460_channels_with_tmp_adc;
indio_dev->num_channels = ARRAY_SIZE(ad8460_channels_with_tmp_adc);
}
I also found other implementations where the type of channel is checked. Thought
That maybe it's a good addition for security.
Thanks,
Mariel
