Hi Jonathan, Thanks for the suggestions and remarks. Couple of things before I send out v2. Yes, I agree that hwmon could also be a receptacle for this. AFAIK, IIO is directed towards devices which are ADC/DAC converters in some sense, which makes the driver I wrote also fall in the category. I am not a better judge but personally, I would choose iio over hwmon anytime since the interface is something which has fancied me and enamored me to it. :) FYI, I am also writing another driver in parallel (a temperature sensor again) in IIO subsystem, so will ask you in this thread itself if it is considerable? Nevertheless, I genuinely would be grateful if you consider this driver to be a part of IIO subsystem. As a maintainer for this, I would be happy to shift this to a better subsystem if something comes in the future or even hwmon. Switching to another topic, I have answered your comments and have some doubts which I would like you to answer before I send out v2. >> That's a large todo. Why set it up if the support to actually use it isn't there? Is there no mode where these GPIOs are disabled that would be more suitable until you add support (optionally as gpios may well not be wired up). There is no specific mode to "disable" the GPIOs. I wanted to trigger temperature conversion having GPIO1 as a trigger interrupt so I put this as TODO. Yes, its possible that GPIOs are not wired up but this would provide a feature for this sensor for the GPIO to use. Also, I don't intend to keep the TODO for long. The device tables and kernel code are already in process to remove the TODO. >>> +static void max30208_gpio_setup(struct max30208_data *data) int return so you can indicate an error to the caller. Here, I am configuring GPIOs to act as interrupt and temperature conversion events. But if configuration fails, I don't want to fail the driver probe as this is secondary and not absolutely necessary. Thus, there is no point to even check the return value. Can we proceed with the function as 'void'? I will give a warning if any of the GPIO fails to be configured as interrupt/conversion event. That would suffice. Will that be ok? >>That leaves is in nasy unknown state. Error out. If the device fails the i2c call because it resets quicker than sending the Ack (quite a few drivers do this), just drop the error check. The failure to perform reset will not considerable affect the device. Some things like FIFO buffer could be not empty initially but since temperature readings are taken at the end of the buffer, those shouldn't affect. Hence, I have implemented dev_warn. The warning indicates that if the user thinks that on triggering temperature conversion 'n' times, there would be 'n' FIFO readings, then he is wrong as device failed to reset. This is the only motive of giving warning on reset. >>> + max30208_gpio_setup(data); As mentioned above, this should return an error if it hits one and probe should fail if so. It is very unwise to carry on once we have a device in known state because an error occurred during setup. The GPIO configuration error won't affect the device's usability. Hence, I haven't returned an error on failure. The main objective is to provide readings. GPIO functionality is secondary. Nevertheless, I will issue a warning if GPIO configuration fails to let user know GPIO's won't work. Would that be ok? >>I'd prefer seeing the of_match_table() as well. Otherwise we rely on the fallback matching and lose the advantage of having the vendor name in there. Sure Jonathan. The device table is in the process of testings. However, I am implementing acpi_match_table in the driver. Will that work? Is the of_match_table necessary?

Hi Rajat, Opening question for all temperature drivers is why IIO rather than hwmon? There are a couple of standard reasons why the existing temp sensors are there. 1) They are weird. E.g. the infrared sensors. 2) They are very industrially oriented (read expensive). Usually things like high precision thermocouple front ends. 3) (this one is a bit nasty) they share silicon with more complex sensors. This sometimes happens with things like pressure sensors. Same interface covers devices with an without the pressure part. Definitely hwmon if typically used for monitoring temp in a PC etc. Other cases are somewhat trickier to answer. We have iio-hwmon bridge for the really unclear cases (so it can appear in both ;) Either way I did a quick review. Comments inline.

If so perhaps save on i2c_reads of the fifo count, but first clearing the ones we know about, then checking the count again. Arguably, if they are new they are after we asked for a reading anyway, so perhaps we shouldn't be looking at them - but instead using the most recent one before we starting reading? > + if (data_count < 0) > + return data_count; > + } > + temp_raw = ret; > + > + mutex_unlock(&data->lock); > + > + return temp_raw; > +} > + > +static int max30208_read(struct iio_dev *indio_dev, > + struct iio_chan_spec const *chan, > + int *val, int *val2, long mask) > +{ > + struct max30208_data *data = iio_priv(indio_dev); > + int ret; > + > + switch (mask) { > + case IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW: > + ret = max30208_update_temp(data); > + if (ret < 0) > + return ret; > + > + *val = sign_extend32(ret, 15); > + return IIO_VAL_INT; > + > + case IIO_CHAN_INFO_SCALE: > + *val = MAX30208_RESOLUTION_MC; > + *val2 = 1; > + > + return IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL; return IIO_VAL_INT; > + > + case IIO_CHAN_INFO_PROCESSED: > + ret = max30208_update_temp(data); > + if (ret < 0) > + return ret; > + > + *val = sign_extend32(ret, 15) * MAX30208_RESOLUTION_MC; Don't have PROCESSED.
