Changes in v2: - New IIO constants have been reduced to three: IIO_COUNT, IIO_INDEX, and IIO_CHAN_INFO_PRESET - 104-QUAD-8 specific flags, modes, and configurations have been broken out and exposed via ext_info elements This patchset adds new IIO channel type and info constants to facilitate support for counter devices. In addition, a new "counter" subdirectory is created to house drivers for these counter devices. Quadrature encoders, such as rotary encoders and linear encoders, are devices which are capable of encoding the relative position and direction of motion of a shaft. This patch introduces the counter subdirectory and several IIO constants for supporting quadrature encoder counter devices. IIO_COUNT: Current count (main data provided by the counter device) IIO_INDEX: Set high when index input is at active level IIO_CHAN_INFO_PRESET: Counter preset value Specifically, this patchset introduces a driver to support the ACCES 104-QUAD-8 device, a general purpose quadrature encoder counter/interface board capable of monitoring the outputs of eight encoders.
