I'd be tempted to look at whether iio_info can be easily 'fixed' as a starting point. This corner case may well occur for other devices in future. It is 'stretching' the ABI definition but I don't think the current documentation rules this case out. > > > I also want an ack from Andrew on this one given might break it existing > > usage. > > > > The current interface is perhaps less than ideal, but I don't think it > > is wrong as such.

Agreed - I'm not sure on the right thing to do here. I suspect leaving the modifier and add the index may be the best we can do but let us wait to see what others think.
