[PATCH v5 0/2] iio: adc: Add the Ingenic X1600 ADC
From: Olivier Louvignes
Date: Thu Nov 05 2026 - 16:40:09 EST
A driver for the SAR ADC of the Ingenic X1600: four auxiliary channels,
12 bits, one interrupt per channel. Tested on a HiBy R1, whose keys are on
channel 0 behind adc-keys.
As in v3 and v4, this version is X1600-only. The X1830 and the X2000 have
the same register layout by their programming manuals, and a chip_info
with the channel count and the resolution can add them later, with a test
on either.
Changes in v5:
- Binding: the reference is the SADC_VREFP pin (X1600 datasheet: ball
P12, 3.3 V typical, at most the ADC's own supply), so an optional
vref-supply, and the description says so in Nikolaus's words. The
driver takes the supply's voltage, and 3.3 V without one. The ADC's
analog supply (SADC_AVDD) is left out, like the SoC's other supply
pins (Conor's question; Nikolaus answered it).
- Binding example: reg covers the 4 KiB the programming manual's memory
map gives the SADC (Conor; Nikolaus on the map).
- The driver's declarations in reverse xmas tree, the timeout macro in
jiffies with an if/else on the wait, a blank line, and clamp()'s
bounds on one line (Andy).
- The clock stays unnamed: Krzysztof (on v2) and Conor (on v1) asked for
clock-names to go, as the block has one clock. A variant with more
would come with a compatible of its own and could name them there
(Andy asked for a name).
- The name stays "adc" rather than the vendor's "sadc" (Nikolaus): the
JZ4740 datasheet calls its block the SADC too, and mainline binds it
as ingenic,jz4740-adc.
- Andy's Reviewed-by on patch 2, and Nikolaus's Tested-by (LX16, driver
only, given on v4) on both.
- Rebased on togreg after -rc1.
Tested on the HiBy R1 with v5: without a vref-supply, as the R1 is
described, the scale falls back to 3.3 V and the three buttons on
channel 0 work through adc-keys; with a vref-supply pointed, for the
test only, at the board's 3.3 V PMIC rail, the driver waits for the
regulator and takes its voltage. v5 is also built with W=1 with and
without CONFIG_REGULATOR.
Changes in v4:
- The Kconfig prompt, the header comment and MODULE_DESCRIPTION() are
the same text (Andy).
- The read computes the data register's bank and half next to each
other, and the two macros take them (Andy).
- X1600_ADC_CLK_RATE_HZ (Andy).
- Read and write helpers that add the base (Andy). Plain MMIO rather
than regmap: nothing is cached or shared, and the only
read-modify-writes are under the conversion mutex or in probe.
- The device clock rate is clamped before dividing (Andy); the divider
comes out the same for every rate.
- Binding: the description's last sentence and clock-names dropped; the
driver takes its one clock unnamed (Krzysztof on v2 and Conor on v1:
their reviews and v3 crossed).
- Joshua's Reviewed-by on patch 2: the changes to it are the points
above, with no change in behaviour.
Changes in v3:
- Cover letter (Andy, Joshua).
- MAINTAINERS: no list line; the binding's path in patch 1, the driver's
in patch 2 (Joshua).
- Includes for what the driver uses, copyright line, MODULE_AUTHOR(),
reverse xmas tree, open-coded return, no message after
devm_request_irq(), a blank line (Joshua; Andy on the return).
- fsleep(2 * USEC_PER_MSEC) (Andy).
- The ADC clock divider is now even, as the X1600 programming manual
has it; v2 wrote the divider minus one, as the vendor kernel does. The
divider fields are named as in the manual, and the two clocks only
repeated sampling uses stay at their reset values.
- The probe comment on staying powered up no longer names the keys
(Jonathan).
Changes in v2 (Jonathan):
- The comparison with the JZ47xx ADCs dropped from the file header.
- No mod_devicetable.h include.
- X1600_ADC_VREF_mV.
- The status declaration split from its readl() in the interrupt
handler.
- field_get() for the channel's result.
- fsleep(2000) instead of usleep_range().
