[PATCH v3 00/10] iio: accel: adxl345: add FIFO operating with IRQ triggered watermark events

From: Lothar Rubusch
Date: Tue Dec 03 2024 - 15:53:11 EST


The adxl345 sensor offers several features. Most of them are based on
using the hardware FIFO and reacting on events coming in on an interrupt
line. Add access to configure and read out the FIFO, handling of interrupts
and configuration and application of the watermark feature on that FIFO.

Although I tried to implement most of the requested changes, now the code
is simplified and clearer, I still encounter some issues.

1) Unsure if my way reading out the FIFO elements with a regmap_noinc_read()
is supposed to be like that. TBH, isn't there a better way, say, to
configure the channel correctly and this is handled by the iio API
internally? As I understood from v2 there might be a way using
available data, also in iio_info I see now as buffer attributes an
available data field. Where can I find information how to use it or
did I get this wrong?

2) Overrun handling: I'm trying to reset the FIFO and registers. Unsure,
if this is the correct dealing here.

3) I can see the IRQs coming in, and with a `watch -n 0.1 iio_info` I can
see the correct fields changing. I tried the follwoing down below,
but the iio_readdev shows me the following result. I don't quite
understand if I still have an issue here, or if this is a calibration
thing?

Above I marked what keeps changing with "CHANGES", that's what I expect. Then with readdev
I obtain the following result.

Am I doing this actually correctly?

---
v2 -> v3: Implementation reworked and simplified
- INT lines are defined by binding
- kfifo is prepared by devm_iio_kfifo_buffer_setup()
- event handler is registered w/ devm_request_threaded_irq()
v1 -> v2: Fix comments according to Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst
and missing static declaration of function.
