This patchset introduces IIO software triggers, offers a way of configuring
them via configfs and adds the IIO hrtimer based interrupt source to be used
with software triggers.
The arhitecture is now split in 3 parts, to remove all IIO trigger specific
parts from IIO configfs core:
(1) IIO configfs - offers a generic way of creating IIO objects. So far there
is one default group for triggers.
(2) IIO software triggers - software trigger implementation.
(3) IIO hrtimer trigger - is the first interrupt source for software triggers
(with syfs to follow). Each trigger type can implement its own set of
attributes.
Also this patchset introduces configfs_(un)register_group to the configfs core
in order to allow drivers to dynamically create groups on demand.
Changes since v6:
* implemented Lars-Peter's idea (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/13/302)
to switch from /config/iio/triggers/hrtimer-instance1 to
/config/iio/triggers/instance1.
Changes since v5: (after Lars comments)
* the most important change is that we moved sampling_frequency attribute
from configfs to trigger's directory in /sys.
* couple of const added to strings
* documentation to public API in sw_trigger.h
* replace pr_err with WARN_ONCE in trigger_make_group to avoid spamming
kernel log, but without leaving user clueless in case of errors.
* we still need to decide if we get a real gain by adding min/max limits
for sampling frequency in /config dir. Anyhow, this can be done in a later
patch.
* fix race in hrtimer_remove
Changes since v4:
* patch 1/4
- fixed "new line" nit in industrialio-sw-trigger.c
- added license header in sw_trigger.h o
* patch 2/4
- none
* patch 3/4
- none
* patch 4/4
- removed "Further work" chapter in iio_configfs.txt
- added configfs-iio file in Documentation/ABI/testing
