Looks nicely cleaned up to me, but I'm really not going to be the best
person to review this.  So would appreciate anyone else who has the time
taking a look at this.

[PATCH v3 1/8] iio:core: add a callback to allow drivers to provide _available attributes

2016-10-24 Thread Peter Rosin
From: Jonathan Cameron 

A large number of attributes can only take a limited range of values.
Currently in IIO this is handled by directly registering additional
*_available attributes thus providing this information to userspace.

It is desirable to provide this information via the core for much the same
reason this was done for the actual channel information attributes in the
first place.  If it isn't there, then it can only really be accessed from
userspace.  Other in kernel IIO consumers have no access to what valid
parameters are.

Two forms are currently supported:
* list of values in one particular IIO_VAL_* format.
e.g. 1.30 1.50 1.73
* range specification with a step size:
e.g. [1.00 0.50 2.50]
equivalent to 1.00 1.500 2.00 2.50

An addition set of masks are used to allow different sharing rules for the
*_available attributes generated.

This allows for example:

in_accel_x_offset
in_accel_y_offset
in_accel_offset_available.

We could have gone with having a specification for each and every
info_mask element but that would have meant changing the existing userspace
ABI.  This approach does not.
