Hi Jonathan, William, I apologize for the late reply, being busy on other topics. I think the stm32 timer driver need some cleanup to remove this ABI: - stm32-lptimer-counter indeed is similar to 104-quad-8 driver. It still registers an IIO device with the "preset" attribute pointed out in the doc warning. Yes, the counter interface covers the same. So, I agree this ABI could be removed here. Still, I don't know if there are users for the IIO counter ABI. Dummy question... Is it needed to drop driver part and ABI, at the same time ? - stm32-timer-trigger driver which resides in iio, also registers preset attr being pointed out above. I'm more concerned there: I think some modes may depend on the preset attr, even for the trigger. Partial removal was done by Benjamin earlier (after stm32-timer-cnt addition). still I need to double check this. At least dropping the stm32-lptimer-counter part, should avoid the Warning here. So it may probably be ok in the short term? Please advise, Best Regards, Fabrice > > I'm going to hazard a guess that there aren't many 104-quad-8 users > that you don't know about William, so if you think we can immediately drop > the interface from that, lets do so, whether or not we can clean up > the stm32 one at the same time. > > Jonathan > >> >> William Breathitt Gray >> >>>> >>>> Jonathan >>>> >>>>> >>>>> Thanks, >>>>> Mauro >>>> >>> >> >
