Hi Michael > The way available scan modes are handled in the max1363 driver doesn't > nicely equate to the AD7997, AD7997 or AD7991 series of ADCs. > These devices feature up to 8 Channels while each channel can be independently > included into the scan sequence. > (this would require up to 256 'named' modes) I agree entirely. The approach originally used in max1363 has gone in the latest patch set posted the other day (indeed the set you reference below) > > A while ago we talked about this - and you said you would abandon the > 'named' scan mode selection - and come up with something like a scan_elements > directory with channel control files (enable/disable), and some sort of mechanism > that rejects invalid combinations. > > I noticed some additions ... > [PATCH 04/19] staging:iio: Support functions for scan mask matching Yup. That's what max1363 now does. In the same series, see [PATCH 08/19] staging:iio:max1363 move to new abi. (as the new abi didn't allow the 'named' scan mode approach!) Other than some renaming, the lis3l20dq for example has done the scan_elements approach from the start (as have some of the others.)
