[RFC/PATCH v3] staging: iio: update locking method during frequency writes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The driver needs to insure atomicity during frequency
changes of bus and device. The iiodev->mlock as used
was not doing that. Replace it with the drivers existing
buffer lock and introduce an auxiliary spi_write() that does
not hold the lock.

Changes in v3:
        - Removed unnecessary ret variable inside
          __ade7754_spi_write_reg_8 function.
Changes in v2:
        - Added auxiliary function.
        - Updated the buf_lock comment appropriately.
