Changes in v12:
- Move unlock to after register set in quad8_count_ceiling_write()
- Add locking protection to counter_set_event_node()
- Fix sparse warning by using {} instead of {0}
- Clean up and organize comments for clarity
- Reduce boilerplate by utilizing devm_add_action_or_reset()
- Use switch statements in ti_eqep_action_read() to make possible cases
more obvious
I pulled out a lot of bits and pieces to their own patches; hopefully
that makes reviewing this patchset much simpler than before. This
patchset is also available on my personal git repo for convenience:
https://gitlab.com/vilhelmgray/iio/-/tree/counter_chrdev_v12
The patches preceding "counter: Internalize sysfs interface code" are
primarily cleanup and fixes that can be picked up and applied now to the
IIO tree if so desired. The "counter: Internalize sysfs interface code"
patch as well may be considered for pickup because it is relatively safe
and makes no changes to the userspace interface.
To summarize the main points of this patchset: there are no changes to
the existing Counter sysfs userspace interface; a Counter character
device interface is introduced that allows Counter events and associated
data to be read() by userspace; the events_configure() and
watch_validate() driver callbacks are introduced to support Counter
events; and IRQ support is added to the 104-QUAD-8 driver, serving as an
example of how to support the new Counter events functionality.
Something that should still be discussed: should the struct
counter_event "status" member be 8 bits or 32 bits wide? This member
will provide the return status (system error number) of an event
operation.
