For reference of others the usb gadget code is a good example of how to handle these sort of cross dependencies.. the approach used for function drivers there would give us the cleaner option of /config/iio/triggers/hrtimer-instance1 /config/iio/triggers/hrtimer-instance2 /config/iio/triggers/sysfs-instance1 /config/iio/virtualdevs/hwmon-instance1 etc > > J >> >>> --- >>> >>> Changes since v2: >>> * Fix build errors by compiling industrialio-configfs.ko >>> as a separate module, as reported by Paul. >>> >>> Changes since v1: >>> * addressed feedback from v1: >>> * https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/25/647 >>> * create a directory per trigger type >>> * removed activate and type attributes >>> >>> drivers/iio/Kconfig | 8 ++ >>> drivers/iio/Makefile | 1 + >>> drivers/iio/industrialio-configfs.c | 127 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ >>> include/linux/iio/iio_configfs_trigger.h | 40 ++++++++++ >>> 4 files changed, 176 insertions(+) >>> create mode 100644 drivers/iio/industrialio-configfs.c >>> create mode 100644 include/linux/iio/iio_configfs_trigger.h >>> >>> diff --git a/drivers/iio/Kconfig b/drivers/iio/Kconfig >>> index 4011eff..41d5863 100644 >>> --- a/drivers/iio/Kconfig >>> +++ b/drivers/iio/Kconfig >>> @@ -18,6 +18,14 @@ config IIO_BUFFER >>> Provide core support for various buffer based data >>> acquisition methods. >>> >>> +config IIO_CONFIGFS >>> + tristate "Enable IIO configuration via configfs" >>> + select CONFIGFS_FS >>> + help >>> + This allows configuring various IIO bits through configfs >>> + (e.g. software triggers).
