The alert functionality is an out of range indicator and can be used as an
early indicator of an out of bounds conversion result.
ALERT_LOW_THRESHOLD and ALERT_HIGH_THRESHOLD registers are common to all
channels.
When using 1 SDO line (only mode supported by the driver right now), i.e
data outputs only on SDOA, SDOB (or SDOD for 4 channels variants) is
used as an alert pin. The alert pin is updated at the end of the
conversion (set to low if an alert occurs) and is cleared on a falling
edge of CS.
The ALERT register contains information about the exact alert status:
channel and direction. Unfortunately we can't read this register because
in buffered read we cannot claim for direct mode.
User can set high/low thresholds and enable event detection using the
regular iio events:
events/in_thresh_falling_value
events/in_thresh_rising_value
events/thresh_either_en
Because we cannot read ALERT register, we can't determine the exact
channel that triggers the alert, neither the direction (hight/low
threshold violation), so we send and IIO_EV_DIR_EITHER event for all
channels. This is ok, because the primary use case for this chip is to
hardwire the alert line to shutdown the device.
When reading a channel raw data, we have to trigger 2 spi transactions: a
first transaction that will trigger a conversion and a second
transaction to read the conversion. By design a new conversion is
initiated on each falling edge of CS. This will trigger a second
interrupt. To avoid that we disable irq in the hard irq handler and
re-enable them in thread handler.

Hello,
The ad738x family includes a built-in alert mechanism for early
detection of out-of-bounds conversion results. This series introduces
this functionality to the ad7380 family, with several open questions.
About High/Low Threshold sysfs entries:
The internal high/low threshold registers are 16 bits and thresholds must
be computed on a 16 bits scale, regardless of the actual ADC resolution,
meaning SCALE and OFFSET attributes or realbits can't be used to compute
the raw value.
For example, with a 3.3V reference and a 16-bit scale, the calculation for
a 1.3V high threshold is 1300/0.100708 ≈ 13000 >> 4 = 812. User has to
write 812 in sysfs entry. This value is valid for all chips, regardless
of the actual ADC resolution.
Is it okay to have a raw threshold value that is not on the same scale
as the channel raw value? What about when reading back the threshold
values?
About event Handling:
There is an alert register containing two status
bits per ADC, one corresponding to the high limit, and the other to the
low limit. A logical OR of alert signals for all ADCs creates a common
alert value which drives out the alert pin.
Unfortunately we cannot read the alert register to determine the exact
channel and direction, because in buffered read, we cannot claim for
direct mode. So:
* we send an alert event on ALL channels
* we set the direction to IIO_EV_DIR_EITHER (xilinx-xadc is doing that)
Does that work?
Moreover, the user can not reliably read alert register manually because
when reading a channel, we have to do 2 transactions: 1 to trigger
conversion and 1 to read data (this one will also trigger a new
conversion). When reading alert register, the register will not reflect the
alert of the first conversion.
Does it make sens to send generic event if user can't read register?
Interrupt Handling:
Should we consider enabling interrupt only once per buffered read? If
thresholds are continuously exceeded a lot of interrupts are generated.
ADI engineers suggest the primary use of this alert pin is as a hardware
shutdown signal for the ADC. Therefore, is it better to skip event
handling and provide threshold configuration only? Would custom
attributes be more appropriate than events in this case?
