Hi All, This has v2 of the dummy driver introduction to start with, main changes are responses to Manuels review and a kernel doc fixes (as I remembered the format wrong whilst writing the original code - oops). The second patch is somewhat evil in that it uses an additional helper module purely to fake event 'interupts'. This is the best option I have come up with for how to write a 'standard' looking driver that will work without hardware. It's hacky, but I don't really want to spend much time on it if it will simply work. The code in the actual dummy driver is pretty simple and standard. Note I have glossed over having a top half to the interrupt as the evgen driver can't run one as currently stands. We talked a while ago about a workaround for that in the core, but nothing is in place as yet. The third patch puts basic example buffered support in place. I haven't provided a trigger because that would require either extending the nasty evgen module, or writing another. Whilst it is decidely 'unusual' we do have a hardware free trigger in the iio-trig-sysfs. I'd not advise people look at that one to get an idea of how a normal one works though. So at the end of this, the weak point is the lack of an example trigger, but those vary so much anyway I inclined to tell people to look for a driver that happens to do roughly what their hardware needs and copy that! What do people think? I propose to drop the 3 files I moaned about the other day from the documentation directory in favour of a short description of what this driver does but only once this is in place. Thanks, Jonathan p.s. found a few bugs in the test prog, so I'll send a series out cleaning those up soonish.
