It's impossible to describe ever combination of shared attributes so we just do the big versions. For everything else the ABI relies on the fact that any change to a value can in theory impact any other attribute in the same IIO device. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > + > > > > > + semtech,compensate-common: > > > > > + description: Any sensor triggers compensation of all channels. > > > > > + type: boolean > > > > > > > > Compensation for what? > > > > > > This is for RegProxCtrl6 bit 6 AVGCOMPMETHOD. > > > > > > Defines the average compensation method: > > > > > > 0: Individual.

I can do that.

If close and far are different events, you can have a separate controls.
