[PATCH v3 4/5] iio: ad7192: copy/release available filter frequencies to fix race

From: Matteo Martelli
Date: Tue Oct 15 2024 - 07:07:55 EST


While available filter frequencies are being printed to sysfs by iio
core (iio_read_channel_info_avail), the sampling frequency might be
changed. This could cause the buffer shared with iio core to be
corrupted. To prevent it, make a copy of the filter frequencies buffer
and free it in the read_avail_release_resource callback.
