I believe so, especially considering that there are two channels and your driver currently only exposes one of them, which is elected by the gain configuration. I'd expect that there are use-cases where both inputs are connected and the application wants to switch between them dynamically at runtime. The only tricky part here seems to be that the configuration for the next conversion is selected on the current conversion. This means you probably need to do a dummy conversion whenever the settings change. -- 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
