Here is the way I test : # iio/lsiio Device 001: ism330dlc_gyro Device 002: ism330dlc_accel Device 000: ina3221x # for axis in x y z; do echo 1 >/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device1/scan_elements/in_anglvel_${axis}_en; done # echo 416 > /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device1/sampling_frequency # while true; do sudo iio/iio_generic_buffer -n ism330dlc_gyro -g -c 6 -a; sleep 2; done iio device number being used is 1 trigger-less mode selected Auto-channels selected but some channels are already activated in sysfs Proceeding without activating any channels 0.002291 -0.073762 0.033139 0.003971 -0.075289 0.035583 0.003971 -0.076969 0.036194 0.004123 -0.074220 0.037110 0.003207 -0.074678 0.034667 0.002596 -0.073456 0.035277 iio device number being used is 1 trigger-less mode selected Auto-channels selected but some channels are already activated in sysfs Proceeding without activating any channels 0.002138 -0.074067 0.034819 0.003512 -0.075442 0.034819 0.001985 -0.074373 0.035430 0.002902 -0.074373 0.035888 0.002138 -0.074220 0.036346 0.003360 -0.076053 0.035277 After a quick time, iio_generic_buffer gets blocked in the poll syscall. Hitting 'CTRL-C' kills the iio_generic_buffer process, and the next one then receives values. This happens with both gyro and accel. Do you encounter the same problem ? My kernel is actually a 4.9 one with a backport of iio core infrastructure and iio/imu/st_lsm6dsx of 6.2, but I could have missed something important. Best regards Philippe
