Ah, that explains what it is.  Sorry, use
in_proximitiy0_sampling_frequency to provide equivalent
control please.  Might be a pain here, but this interface will just
provide the same info as the existing
one in a different form.  Note that sampling_frequency is documented as
a general one, but can
be extended to individual channels.


Ooop, I did not realize that it is there as part of sysfs.h. I was looking for other header to get support for this. I can use this for proximity only but I think I should go with you other suggestion to implement this on channel basis. This will help also in future for other
drivers to have different sampling on different channel.
Great!
Actually add it to the iio-core as an element in the info_mask as I
doubt this will be the last time
we see this control. This will need to be a precursor patch to the
driver obviously.

IIO_CHAN_INFO_SAMP_FREQ and the relevant shared and separate macros need
to go in
iio.h + the text entry in industrialio-core.c

If you like I can do this but it'll be quicker if you do :)

I will send the patch for implementing this first and then modified version of my driver which actually uses this one.
Cool
