Hi Bruce Saul, I had submitted the patches into Kernel mail list, the concern is the legacy application compatibility: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-iio/index.html#24331
For the Ostro OS, Using Soletta framrwork, we have tested/verified more more than 30 different I2C devices(https://ostroproject.org/documentation/hardware/sensors.html). But only the two devices have incorrect device names(the IIO name does not match the I2C device name). QA team think it is a bug Thanks, Yong 2016-05-27 23:51 GMT+08:00 Saul Wold <s...@linux.intel.com>: > On Fri, 2016-05-27 at 10:24 -0400, Bruce Ashfield wrote: >> On 2016-05-27 12:58 AM, Yong Li wrote: >> > >> > Dear Maintainers, >> > >> > This patch fixes the “incorrect IIO device name” issue. >> > >> > Please merge it into standard/base branch for linux-yocto-4.4 if >> > this looks okay. >> The change looks technically correct, just a question about if these >> are also going upstream to the mainline kernel. >> > Bruce, > > These are possibly candidates for the standard/intel branch, > they where proposed upstream and deemed correct, but not merge-able due > to creating incompatible names. > > Yong Li, > What is requiring the name change in Ostro, why can't Ostro > use the existing incorrect, but compatible name? > > Sau! >> Bruce >> >> > >> > >> > Thanks >> > Yong Li >> > >> > Yong Li (2): >> > iio: tmp006: Set correct iio name >> > iio: si7020: Set correct iio name >> > >> > drivers/iio/humidity/si7020.c | 2 +- >> > drivers/iio/temperature/tmp006.c | 2 +- >> > 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) >> > -- _______________________________________________ linux-yocto mailing list linux-yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/linux-yocto
