Allowing either the gpio or the interrupt is a little ususual, but
I suppose does avoid having to change existing users to gain interrupt
support (if their gpio subsystem happens to support interrupts).
Thanks for the review. I am going to send new series promptly.
Regarding the gpio issue - I can imagine the situation when there is no
available interrupt pin at the CPU, as they were all connected to the
other devices, there are some free general purpose pins though. It is
always better to have a possibility to periodically read the state of
such a pin, instead of performing cycling I2C transmission to check the
status of DRDY bit in the ST1 register, which is a fallback in the driver.
Thanks,
Jacek Anaszewski
