[PATCH v2 0/3] iio: Improce kernel docs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



IIO has very nice facilities for efficiently providing data from a
device to user (and probably also vice-versa - but I've not used that
direction). Getting started with IIO may not be so simple though - some
of the concepts like triggers and buffers are quite unique.

This series tries to make it easier for a newcomer to write his/her first
IIO driver by adding some documentation to used enums. Series does not
provide extensive documentation but just documents those few entries I
have become familiar with - but it still aims to be a starting point for
others to add missing bits and pieces.

This series is marked as v2 because the patch 1 was previously sent as a
stan-alone RFC to collect the missing channel units. RFC can be seen
here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/10a855f9adc1d710150b7f647500c3c6a769f9ca.1677243698.git.mazziesaccount@xxxxxxxxx/

Patches 2 and 3 were added as a result of discussion followed by the
RFC.

Revision history:
RFCv1 => v2:
    - added patches 2 and 3
    - added missing channel type docs provided by Jonathan
    - added @in front of member names and fix typos pointed by Andy
    - dropped TODOs as Jonathan clarified the units
