2012-09-15iio: Introduce a new fractional value typeLars-Peter Clausen
Currently IIO uses a decimal fixed point representations for real type numbers. This patch introduces a new representation for rational type numbers. The number will be expressed by specifying a numerator and denominator. For converting a raw value to a processed value multiply it by the numerator and divide it by the denominator. The reasoning for introducing this new type is that for a lot of devices the scale can be represented easily by a fractional number, but it is not possible to represent it as fixed point number without rounding. E.g. for a simple DAC the scale is often the reference voltage divided by the number of possible values (Usually 2**n_bits - 1). Each driver currently implements the conversion of this fraction to a fixed point number on its own. Also when it comes to the in-kernel interface this allows to directly use the fractional factors to convert a raw value to a processed value. This should on one hand require less instructions and on the other hand increase the precision. Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron <jic23@kernel.org>

2012-06-07iio: iio_enum_available_read: Prevent possible buffer overflowLars-Peter Clausen
Use scnprint instead of snprintf, because snprintf returns the number of bytes that would have been written to the buffer if there was enough space, and as a result writing to buf[len-1] might cause a access beyond the buffers limits.

2012-06-05iio: Add helper functions for enum style channel attributesLars-Peter Clausen
We often have the case were we do have a enum style channel attribute. These attributes have in common that they are a list of string values which usually map in a 1-to-1 fashion to integer values. This patch implements some common helper code for implementing enum style channel attributes using extended channel attributes. The helper functions take care of converting between the string and integer values, as well providing a function for "_available" attributes which list all available enum items.

2012-06-05iio: Fix potential use after freeLars-Peter Clausen
There is no guarantee that the last reference to the iio device has already been dropped when iio_device_free is called. This means that we can up calling iio_dev_release after iio_device_free which will lead to a use after free. As the general rule the struct containing the device should always be freed in the release callback. This is what this patch does, it moves freeing the iio device struct as well as releasing the idr reference to the release callback. To ensure that the device is not freed before calling iio_device_free the device_unregister call in iio_device_unregister is broken apart. iio_device_unregister will now only call device_del to remove the device from the system and iio_device_free will call put_device to drop the reference we obtained in iio_devce_alloc. We also have to take care that calling iio_device_free without having called iio_device_register still works (i.e. this can happen if something failed during device initialization). For this to work properly two minor changes were necessary: channel_attr_list needs to be initialized in iio_device_alloc and we have to check whether the chrdev has been registered before releasing it in iio_device_release. This change also brings iio_device_unregister and iio_device_free more in sync with iio_device_register and iio_device_alloc which call device_add and device_initialize respectively.

2012-04-30staging:iio: Streamline API function namingLars-Peter Clausen
Currently we use two different naming schemes in the IIO API, iio_verb_object and iio_object_verb. E.g iio_device_register and iio_allocate_device. This patches renames instances of the later to the former. The patch also renames allocate to alloc as this seems to be the preferred form throughout the kernel. In particular the following renames are performed by the patch: iio_put_device -> iio_device_put iio_allocate_device -> iio_device_alloc iio_free_device -> iio_device_free iio_get_trigger -> iio_trigger_get iio_put_trigger -> iio_trigger_put iio_allocate_trigger -> iio_trigger_alloc iio_free_trigger -> iio_trigger_free The conversion was done with the following coccinelle patch with manual fixes to comments and documentation. <smpl> @@ @@ -iio_put_device +iio_device_put @@ @@ -iio_allocate_device +iio_device_alloc @@ @@ -iio_free_device +iio_device_free @@ @@ -iio_get_trigger +iio_trigger_get @@ @@ -iio_put_trigger +iio_trigger_put @@ @@ -iio_allocate_trigger +iio_trigger_alloc @@ @@ -iio_free_trigger +iio_trigger_free </smpl> Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de> Acked-by: Jonathan Cameron <jic23@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
