Fair enough. I'm trying to work out what our equivalent of the clk finding api is. The best match pair to match on I can come up with is: part name: iio_dev.name dev_name of underlying hardware if specified. dev_name(iio_dev->dev.parent) This matching source can be overridden by an optional callback if we unique matching is achievable in some other way for the device. Typical pairs: max1363, 0-0035 max1238, 0-0034 lis3l02dq spi1.0 adis16400 spi2.1 On soc ADCs can use any combination of the two that makes local sense. Does this look sufficient for description / identification? Precedence order of both, then column 2 (lets call that id) and finally column 1 (part name). The concept of connections doesn't make sense quite like it does for clks as we are getting a reference to the whole device, then picking which bits we want afterwards. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-iio" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
