[PATCH] iio: core: centralize ioctl() calls to the main chardev

From: Alexandru Ardelean
Date: Thu Sep 24 2020 - 04:42:08 EST


The aim of this is to improve a bit the organization of ioctl() calls in
IIO core. Currently the chardev is split across IIO core sub-modules/files.
The main chardev has to be able to handle ioctl() calls, and if we need to
add buffer ioctl() calls, this would complicate things.

The 'industrialio-core.c' file will provide a 'iio_device_ioctl()' which
will iterate over a list of ioctls registered with the IIO device. These
can be event ioctl() or buffer ioctl() calls, or something else.

Each ioctl() handler will have to return a IIO_IOCTL_UNHANDLED code (which
is positive 1), if the ioctl() did not handle the call in any. This
eliminates any potential ambiguities about negative error codes, which
should fail the call altogether.

If any ioctl() returns 0, it was considered that it was serviced
successfully and the loop will exit.

This change also moves the handling of the IIO_GET_EVENT_FD_IOCTL command
inside 'industrialio-event.c', where this is better suited.

This patch is a combination of 2 other patches from an older series:
Patch 1: iio: core: add simple centralized mechanism for ioctl() handlers
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20200427131100.50845-6-alexandru.ardelean@xxxxxxxxxx/
Patch 2: iio: core: use new common ioctl() mechanism
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20200427131100.50845-7-alexandru.ardelean@xxxxxxxxxx/

Note: since this is a change to the IIO core, we don't need to put this in
right now; especially if there is a tight schedule, or we are too close to
a merge window.
