Hello,
should use channel modifiers (X/Y/Z), not channel indices

Aag. Whilst a correct fix, this is going to result in a userspace ABI
change. Driver has been in since 3.12. We may need to maintain
both ABI's for now and then deprecate it at some point. Easiest way to do
this
will be to have two sets of iio_chan_specs pointing at the same underlying
real channels.
Anyone have a strong opinion about this?
Good spot by the way!

the IIO ABI is under "testing", not "stable" so the interface may be
changed due to 'grave errors'
given the short timespan since 3.12 and the clear violation of the
documented ABI, I think this should just be fixed
Fine, I've applied this to fixes-togreg and marked it for stable.
another suggestion:
often (at least for me) it is difficult to figure out what the user-space
sysfs ABI is from reading the source code and I find it even more
difficult to sometimes guess what a particular sysfs is supposed to do
(e.g. what writing to a _scale actually sets in terms of the hardware);
I'd like to suggest to ask for a listing of the sysfs entries relating
to a new driver under review (e.g. the output of 'find
/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX'); it should be feasible to provide a
tool which compares the submitted listing against the sysfs-bus-iio
documentation and output appropriate warnings
It would certainly be helpful to do this. I'll start asking for complex
drivers, but am not going to bother for really simple ones.
(obviously I'd be happy if the cover letter contained it in all drivers!)
regards, p.
