Re: IIO Drivers

Hi Lars,
Thanks a lot for getting back to me. I've attached my code - it's pretty simple, I just copied an existing driver. As I mentioned individual reads are working fine (if i cat in_voltage0_raw) but buffered reads are failing. I've tracked the issue to industrialio-buffer.c in iio_compute_scan_bytes() which always returns zero because, i believe, the mask is 0. I haven't been able to find any docs on what 'scan masks' mean but I have seen a few drivers that supply available scan masks. Should I be specifying scan masks? 
Thanks!

I've been able to get a driver up and working such that I can read directly from the in_voltage0_raw on sysfs and get the correct values but I can't seem to get buffered access working (via iio_cmdsrv.) I've had a hard time finding any docs on this stuff and I was wondering if you could give me any pointers on where to look or who else perhaps to ask about this stuff? Any pointers would be very much appreciated!
