Thanks for the clarification. It was helpful.

Ah, so that's my issue then. I don't see a new device inside
/sys/bus/iio/devices/.

I only see the original stmpe ADC:

ls "/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0"
dev              in_voltage5_raw  in_voltage_scale  power
in_temp8_input   in_voltage6_raw  name              subsystem
in_voltage4_raw  in_voltage7_raw  of_node           uevent

Maybe my dts is not correct to make the mux appear under
/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device1.

Here is my dts that shows more context with the STMPE811 ADC:
https://pastebin.com/raw/7Nn2aAtN

stmpe811 is an mfd device that can be used as a touchscreen and as a normal adc.

I only use the adc functionality.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,

Fabio Estevam
