Now I'd love to make this generic as in_distance_z_input etc but I guess that's pretty confusing for users ;) Sadly altitude is going to be even more confusing. I wonder if we should make this more explicit and have it as in_steps_calibheight (repeated for all the channels whose computation it effects). It's really a parameter of those channels rather than on its own. It should be out_height_input etc given you are setting it (like a trim DAC on some ADC setup) The there is an implication as that you are changing the users height which, whilst it would be 'interesting', is probably the wrong impression! *laughs* Maybe you were right to keep this an RFC for now ;) > > Signed-off-by: Irina Tirdea <irina.tirdea@xxxxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Daniel Baluta <daniel.baluta@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio | 9 +++++++++ > drivers/iio/industrialio-core.c | 1 + > include/linux/iio/types.h | 1 + > 3 files changed, 11 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio b/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio > index 3557a69..fc027cb 100644 > --- a/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio > +++ b/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio > @@ -256,6 +256,7 @@ What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/out_altvoltageY_scale > What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_accel_scale > What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_accel_peak_scale > What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_anglvel_scale > +What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_height_scale > What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_magn_scale > What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_magn_x_scale > What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_magn_y_scale > @@ -1010,6 +1011,14 @@ Description: > For a list of available output power modes read > in_accel_power_mode_available. > > +What: /sys/.../iio:deviceX/in_height_input > +What: /sys/.../iio:deviceX/in_height_raw > +KernelVersion: 3.17 > +Contact: linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > +Description: > + This attribute is used to set and read the user's height. > + Units after application of scale are centimeters. > + > What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/store_eeprom > KernelVersion: 3.4.0 > Contact: linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > diff --git a/drivers/iio/industrialio-core.c b/drivers/iio/industrialio-core.c > index 1e060f3..f08b278 100644 > --- a/drivers/iio/industrialio-core.c > +++ b/drivers/iio/industrialio-core.c > @@ -72,6 +72,7 @@ static const char * const iio_chan_type_name_spec[] = { > [IIO_HUMIDITYRELATIVE] = "humidityrelative", > [IIO_ACTIVITY] = "activity", > [IIO_STEPS] = "steps", > + [IIO_HEIGHT] = "height", > }; > > static const char * const iio_modifier_names[] = { > diff --git a/include/linux/iio/types.h b/include/linux/iio/types.h > index af0b6e0..a23b2e7 100644 > --- a/include/linux/iio/types.h > +++ b/include/linux/iio/types.h > @@ -32,6 +32,7 @@ enum iio_chan_type { > IIO_HUMIDITYRELATIVE, > IIO_ACTIVITY, > IIO_STEPS, > + IIO_HEIGHT, > }; > > enum iio_modifier { > -- 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
