PNI RM3100 is a high resolution, large signal immunity magnetometer,
composed of 3 single sensors and a processing chip with a MagI2C
interface.

Following functions are available:
  - Single-shot measurement from
    /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_magn_{axis}_raw
  - Triggerd buffer measurement.
  - DRDY pin for data ready trigger.
  - Both i2c and spi interface are supported.
  - Both interrupt and polling measurement is supported, depends on if
    the 'interrupts' in DT is declared.

A few questions for you (getting very close to being good to go btw!)

Why do we have the 3second additional wait for conversions?  I know we
rarely wait that long, but still seems excessive.

Few more comments inline.

Thanks,

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,


The measurement time of this device varies from 1.7ms to 13 seconds, 3 seconds is just a number in the middle between them. This may be worth discussing, hoping to get a better solution from the community.

What about BIT(0) | BIT(2)?

Now you can do it like you have here and on that one corner case let the iio core
demux code take care of it, but then you will need to provide available_scan_masks
so the core knows it needs to handle this case.


This confused me a little. The available_scan_masks I was using is {BIT(0) | BIT(1) | BIT(2), 0x0}. Apparently in this version of patch I would like it to handle every circumstances like BIT(0), BIT(0) | BIT(2), BIT(1) | BIT(2), etc. Since Phil mentioned he would like this to reduce bus usage as much as we can and I want it, too, I think these three circumstances can be read consecutively while others can be read one axis at a time. So I plan to let  BIT(0) | BIT(2) fall into the 'default' section, which reads axis one by one.

My question is, since this handles every possible combination, do I still need to list every available scan masks in available_scan_masks?


All other problems will be fixed in the next patch.

yours,

Song Qiang
