+What:		/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/countY_count_mode
+KernelVersion:	4.17
+Contact:	linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+Description:
+		Count mode for channel Y. The preset value for channel Y is used
+		by the count mode where required. The following count modes are
+		available:
+
+		Normal:
+			Counting is continuous in either direction.
+
+		Range Limit:
+			An upper or lower limit is set, mimicking limit switches
+			in the mechanical counterpart. The upper limit is set to
+			the preset value, while the lower limit is set to 0. The
+			counter freezes at count = preset when counting up, and
+			at count = 0 when counting down. At either of these
+			limits, the counting is resumed only when the count
+			direction is reversed.
+
+		Non-recycle:
+			Counter is disabled whenever a 24-bit count overflow or
+			underflow takes place. The counter is re-enabled when a
+			new count value is loaded to the counter via a preset
+			operation or write to raw.
+
+		Modulo-N:
+			A count boundary is set between 0 and the preset value.
+			The counter is reset to 0 at count = preset when
+			counting up, while the counter is set to the preset
+			value at count = 0 when counting down; the counter does
+			not freeze at the bundary points, but counts
+			continuously throughout.

+Description:
+		Read-only attribute that indicates the count direction of

+What:		/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/countY_enable
+KernelVersion:	4.17
+Contact:	linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+Description:
+		Whether channel Y inputs A and B are enabled. Valid attribute
+		values are boolean.

+KernelVersion:	4.17
+Contact:	linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+Description:
+		Read-only attribute that indicates whether excessive noise is
+		present at the channel Y count inputs in quadrature clock mode;
+		irrelevant in non-quadrature (Pulse-Direction) clock mode.
+
+What:		/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/countY_preset
+KernelVersion:	4.17
+Contact:	linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+Description:
+		If the counter device supports preset registers, the preset
+		count for channel Y is provided by this attribute.
+
+What:		/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/countY_preset_enable
+KernelVersion:	4.17
+Contact:	linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+Description:
+		Whether to set channel Y counter with channel Y preset value
+		when channel Y index input is active, or continuously count.
+		Valid attribute values are boolean.
+
+What:		/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/signalY_index_polarity
+KernelVersion:	4.17
+Contact:	linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+Description:
+		Active level of channel Y-16 index input; irrelevant in
+		non-synchronous load mode.
+
+What:		/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/signalY_index_polarity_available
+What:		/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/signalY_synchronous_mode_available
+KernelVersion:	4.17
+Contact:	linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+Description:
+		Discrete set of available values for the respective Signal Y
+		configuration are listed in this file.
+
+What:		/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/signalY_synchronous_mode
+KernelVersion:	4.17
+Contact:	linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+Description:
+		Configure channel Y-16 counter for non-synchronous or
+		synchronous load mode. Synchronous load mode cannot be selected
+		in non-quadrature (Pulse-Direction) clock mode.
+
+		Non-synchronous:
+			A logic low level is the active level at this index
+			input. The index function (as enabled via preset_enable)
+			is performed directly on the active level of the index
+			input.
+
+		Synchronous:
+			Intended for interfacing with encoder Index output in
+			quadrature clock mode. The active level is configured
+			via index_polarity. The index function (as enabled via
+			preset_enable) is performed synchronously with the
+			quadrature clock on the active level of the index input.
