Hi, This series has a few small improvements for hardware buffer support. The first patch makes sure that we always compute the masklength for the scanmask, even if the driver does not register a userspace accessable buffer. This makes it possible to support cases where the data of the device can not be accessed by software but is directly passed to a different device which can then register a in kernel consumer to control the buffer of the device. The second patch adds support for specifying the supported buffer modes for each buffer type. This makes sure that the correct mode is chosen when a device driver support multiple types, e.g. both software and hardware buffers and also makes sure that we can attach buffers which are not supported by the device (e.g. callback buffer to sca3000). The last patch makes sure that when running in hardware mode the scan mask matching is strict since there is no software demuxer in that case. - Lars Lars-Peter Clausen (3): iio: Always compute masklength iio: Specify supported modes for buffers iio: Require strict scan mask matching in hardware mode drivers/iio/buffer_cb.c | 2 ++ drivers/iio/industrialio-buffer.c | 58 ++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- drivers/iio/kfifo_buf.c | 2 ++ drivers/staging/iio/accel/sca3000_ring.c | 2 ++ include/linux/iio/buffer.h | 3 ++ 5 files changed, 53 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) -- 2.1.4 -- 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
