We really need a clean way of representing a multilevel 'state change' like this. Looking at the event code, I almost wonder if we would be better using the direction element for running, walking etc rather than a modifier. Having said that we will probably also get devices where this is polled rather than event. 'What activity is currently going on?' If we take that view modifiers make sense as it becomes 'Is the user running?' Perhaps even offering a confidence interval, e.g units as percentage in_activity_running_input 0..100 in_activity_walking_input 0..100 etc Then our event becomes a state change event (yup we'll need to add that) /events/in_activity_walking_rising_en will then cause events when the percentage confidence on a state rises above the provided threshold or goes above it (default of 50% perhaps on devices which only report one state). /events/in_activity_walking_falling_en will do the leaving case. Note these are just some quick initial thoughts on alternative methods. I'll want to think on this more and get responses from more interested parties! > What: /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/trigger/current_trigger > KernelVersion: 2.6.35 > Contact: linux-iio@vger.kernel.org > diff --git a/drivers/iio/industrialio-core.c b/drivers/iio/industrialio-core.c > index 67e8561..e453ef9 100644 > --- a/drivers/iio/industrialio-core.c > +++ b/drivers/iio/industrialio-core.c > @@ -92,6 +92,10 @@ static const char * const iio_modifier_names[] = { > [IIO_MOD_NORTH_TRUE] = "from_north_true", > [IIO_MOD_NORTH_MAGN_TILT_COMP] = "from_north_magnetic_tilt_comp", > [IIO_MOD_NORTH_TRUE_TILT_COMP] = "from_north_true_tilt_comp", > + [IIO_MOD_RUNNING] = "running", > + [IIO_MOD_JOGGING] = "jogging", > + [IIO_MOD_WALKING] = "walking", > + [IIO_MOD_STILL] = "still", > }; > > /* relies on pairs of these shared then separate */ > diff --git a/drivers/iio/industrialio-event.c b/drivers/iio/industrialio-event.c > index 0c1e37e..eca5af2 100644 > --- a/drivers/iio/industrialio-event.c > +++ b/drivers/iio/industrialio-event.c > @@ -197,6 +197,7 @@ static const char * const iio_ev_type_text[] = { > [IIO_EV_TYPE_ROC] = "roc", > [IIO_EV_TYPE_THRESH_ADAPTIVE] = "thresh_adaptive", > [IIO_EV_TYPE_MAG_ADAPTIVE] = "mag_adaptive", > + [IIO_EV_TYPE_MOTION] = "motion", > }; > > static const char * const iio_ev_dir_text[] = { > diff --git a/include/linux/iio/types.h b/include/linux/iio/types.h > index d58769a..003638d 100644 > --- a/include/linux/iio/types.h > +++ b/include/linux/iio/types.h > @@ -60,7 +60,11 @@ enum iio_modifier { > IIO_MOD_NORTH_MAGN, > IIO_MOD_NORTH_TRUE, > IIO_MOD_NORTH_MAGN_TILT_COMP, > - IIO_MOD_NORTH_TRUE_TILT_COMP > + IIO_MOD_NORTH_TRUE_TILT_COMP, > + IIO_MOD_RUNNING, > + IIO_MOD_JOGGING, > + IIO_MOD_WALKING, > + IIO_MOD_STILL, > }; > > enum iio_event_type { > @@ -69,6 +73,7 @@ enum iio_event_type { > IIO_EV_TYPE_ROC, > IIO_EV_TYPE_THRESH_ADAPTIVE, > IIO_EV_TYPE_MAG_ADAPTIVE, > + IIO_EV_TYPE_MOTION, > }; > > enum iio_event_info { > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
