A touch of locking > probably to avoid two many simultaneous users of that list... Good point. Will do. I will create a list holding the list with the registered trigger types using the trigger type name as the searching key (e.g. : "hrtimer", "sysfs"). > > Hmm. having read through the patches, are we fundamentally limited to having to > specify the entire directory structure before bringing up configfs? AFAIK, directories can be created in two ways: * as default groups registered at iio trigger configfs init time. * when userspace applications call mkdir. So, unless we agree that userspace applications should be aware of IIO trigger types and manually call mkdir /config/iio/triggers/hrtimer (for example) we are limited to specifying the entire directory structure in the IIO configs module. > >> --- >> >> Changes since v2: >> * Fix build errors by compiling industrialio-configfs.ko >> as a separate module, as reported by Paul. >> >> Changes since v1: >> * addressed feedback from v1: >> * https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/25/647 >> * create a directory per trigger type >> * removed activate and type attributes >> >> drivers/iio/Kconfig | 8 ++ >> drivers/iio/Makefile | 1 + >> drivers/iio/industrialio-configfs.c | 127 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ >> include/linux/iio/iio_configfs_trigger.h | 40 ++++++++++ >> 4 files changed, 176 insertions(+) >> create mode 100644 drivers/iio/industrialio-configfs.c >> create mode 100644 include/linux/iio/iio_configfs_trigger.h >> >> diff --git a/drivers/iio/Kconfig b/drivers/iio/Kconfig >> index 4011eff..41d5863 100644 >> --- a/drivers/iio/Kconfig >> +++ b/drivers/iio/Kconfig >> @@ -18,6 +18,14 @@ config IIO_BUFFER >> Provide core support for various buffer based data >> acquisition methods. >> >> +config IIO_CONFIGFS >> + tristate "Enable IIO configuration via configfs" >> + select CONFIGFS_FS >> + help >> + This allows configuring various IIO bits through configfs >> + (e.g. software triggers).

(string or address most likely). Not really needed, I was trying to avoid a list traversal. You have good point here, I will use a list with the trigger type name (string) as a search key. >> + IIO_TRIGGER_TYPE_MAX, >> +}; >> + >> +struct iio_configfs_trigger_ops; >> + >> +struct iio_configfs_trigger_type { >> + int type; >> + struct module *owner; >> + struct iio_configfs_trigger_ops *trigger_ops; >> +}; >> + >> +struct iio_configfs_trigger_info { >> + char *name; >> + struct iio_trigger *trigger; >> + struct iio_configfs_trigger_type *trigger_type; >> +}; >> + >> +struct iio_configfs_trigger_ops { > I wonder if we can make these more flexible from the start because > avoiding churn in callbacks is always nice as us ensuring we have > a manageable number in the long run!

I am not sure I understand what is the "fixed point" game but I tried to avoid conversions from sampling_frequency integer.fractional part to timer period by using delay. As already said sampling frequency comes natural for devices and delay for timers. > > int (*get_parameter)(struct iio_configfs_trigger_info *, enum iio_configfs_triger_paramtype param, unsigned long *); > >> + int (*get_delay)(struct iio_configfs_trigger_info *, unsigned long *); >> + int (*set_delay)(struct iio_configfs_trigger_info *, unsigned long); >> + int (*probe)(struct iio_configfs_trigger_info *); >> + int (*remove)(struct iio_configfs_trigger_info *); >> +}; >> + >> +int register_configfs_trigger(struct iio_configfs_trigger_type *); >> +int unregister_configfs_trigger(struct iio_configfs_trigger_type *); >> + >> +#endif /* __IIO_CONFIGFS_TRIGGER */ >> > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-iio" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- 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/
