Hi Sean,
this patch does not make sense to me since running st_lsm6dsx_read_oneshot
you need to wait to power up the device (and you will power it down at the
end). I guess you will not be able to read at a given ODR (e.g. 416Hz).
Moreover you can't read from the hw fifo without the irq line since
you need to read a full pattern from it in order to maintain the alignment.
From my point of view you have 2 possibility:
- poll the output registers from userspace (this is what you are actually
doing from inside the kernel, what is the advantage of doing so?)
- fix the hw bug
Moreover if I read the patch correctly it has a NULL pointer dereference bug
since hw->iio_devs[i] can be NULL (e.g. if sensor hub is disabled)
Regards,
Lorenzo
