This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled staging: comedi: adl_pci7x3x: fix digital output on PCI-7230 to my staging git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git in the staging-next branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will also be merged in the next major kernel release during the merge window. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From ad83dbd974feb2e2a8cc071a1d28782bd4d2c70e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Abbott <abbotti@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2015 13:05:10 +0100 Subject: staging: comedi: adl_pci7x3x: fix digital output on PCI-7230 The "adl_pci7x3x" driver replaced the "adl_pci7230" and "adl_pci7432" drivers in commits 8f567c373c4b ("staging: comedi: new adl_pci7x3x driver") and 657f77d173d3 ("staging: comedi: remove adl_pci7230 and adl_pci7432 drivers"). Although the new driver code agrees with the user manuals for the respective boards, digital outputs stopped working on the PCI-7230. This has 16 digital output channels and the previous adl_pci7230 driver shifted the 16 bit output state left by 16 bits before writing to the hardware register. The new adl_pci7x3x driver doesn't do that. Fix it in `adl_pci7x3x_do_insn_bits()` by checking for the special case of the subdevice having only 16 channels and duplicating the 16 bit output state into both halves of the 32-bit register. That should work both for what the board actually does and for what the user manual says it should do.
