[PATCH v2 1/2] iio: accel: adxl345: propagate errors when reading event configuration
From: 赵文强
Date: Fri Oct 16 2026 - 22:39:38 EST
adxl345_is_act_inact_en() returns either a boolean state or a negative
regmap error. Applying !! in adxl345_read_mag_config() converts every
negative error to 1, so a failed register read is reported to userspace
as an enabled activity or inactivity event.
Return the helper result directly. Its successful paths already return
0 or 1, and the IIO event attribute read path propagates negative errors.
This also covers the adaptive magnitude events using the same helper.

Validation on macOS ARM64 with Apple clang 17:
- Compiled the three relevant driver functions verbatim with the driver
header, using a host regmap stub for deterministic read failures.
- The original code failed 36 error cases; the patch passed all 53 cases.
- Covered activity/inactivity and DC/AC coupling, each of three regmap
reads failing with -EIO, -ETIMEDOUT and -EREMOTEIO, enabled/disabled
states, mismatched coupling and an unsupported direction.
- Checked read order, early exit and unchanged register state.
- Used -Wall -Wextra -Werror, AddressSanitizer and UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer.
- git diff --check and checkpatch.pl --no-tree --no-signoff --strict
on the code diff passed with no errors, warnings or checks.
- The full patch draft also passed checkpatch with no errors, warnings
or checks after fetching the introducing commit for Fixes validation.
Also compiled adxl345_core.o, adxl345_spi.o and adxl345_i2c.o as
x86_64 ELF relocatable objects using clang and unpacked Debian Linux 6.1
headers supplemented by upstream IIO/regmap headers. This checks syntax
and types; it is not a full Kbuild/modpost build.
No in-kernel KUnit execution or hardware sensor test was performed.
The checkout is sparse; --no-tree disables checkpatch's tree layout
check. Initial draft checks used --no-signoff before human review.
The final signed email also passed checkpatch without --no-signoff.
AI assistance: Codex reviewed the event-read path, identified the errno
conversion, drafted this two-line fix, the reproducer and changelog.
The request was to prepare a driver/BSP/kernel contribution related to an
ADXL345 SPI/IIO vibration-monitoring project, with reproduction and checks.
