Hello linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,
In reference to:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio
There is this section:
What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_pressureY_raw
What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_pressure_raw
KernelVersion: 3.8
Contact: linux-iio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Description:
Raw pressure measurement from channel Y. Units after
application of scale and offset are kilopascal.

Scaled pressure measurement from channel Y, in kilopascal.

Description:
Raw humidity measurement of air. Units after application of
scale and offset are milli percent.

Description:
Scaled humidity measurement in milli percent.
Nowhere do I find the unit kilopascal used in atmospheric pressure.
To stick with International System of Units and its Prefixes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_System_of_Units#Prefixes
The standard unit for used in atmospheric pressure measurements or
readings is the hectopascal (hPa), in meteorology, for atmospheric
pressure, the modern equivalent of the traditional millibar.
What would it take to make this change to the standard for
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio ?
Thank you.
