Commit Message

Mauro Carvalho Chehab April 27, 2021, 2:03 p.m. UTC
Commit 63cd35f34d2e ("iio: Documentation: update definitions for bufferY and scan_elements")
updated iio documentation in order to point to the newly
per-buffer API, as it is now possible to support multi buffers.

While the previous ABI will be kept forever, the best is
for applications to use the 5.11+ ABI. So, move the
legacy one ABI/obsolete.

This fixes an issue with scripts/get_abi.pl, that doesn't
accept two different Kernel version support for the same
API set.

Thanks for doing this Mauro.

Looks good to me.

Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing for the
autobuilders to ignore it.

Thanks,

Jonathan

+Description:
+		Description of the scan element data storage within the buffer
+		and hence the form in which it is read from user-space.
+		Form is [be|le]:[s|u]bits/storagebits[>>shift].
+		be or le specifies big or little endian. s or u specifies if
+		signed (2's complement) or unsigned. bits is the number of bits
+		of data and storagebits is the space (after padding) that it
+		occupies in the buffer. shift if specified, is the shift that
+		needs to be applied prior to masking out unused bits. Some
+		devices put their data in the middle of the transferred elements
+		with additional information on both sides.  Note that some
+		devices will have additional information in the unused bits
+		so to get a clean value, the bits value must be used to mask
+		the buffer output value appropriately.  The storagebits value
+		also specifies the data alignment.  So s48/64>>2 will be a
+		signed 48 bit integer stored in a 64 bit location aligned to
+		a 64 bit boundary. To obtain the clean value, shift right 2
+		and apply a mask to zero the top 16 bits of the result.
+		For other storage combinations this attribute will be extended
+		appropriately.
+
+		Since kernel 5.11 the scan_elements attributes are merged into
+		the bufferY directory, to be configurable per buffer.

+Description:
+		A single positive integer specifying the position of this
+		scan element in the buffer. Note these are not dependent on
+		what is enabled and may not be contiguous. Thus for user-space
+		to establish the full layout these must be used in conjunction
+		with all _en attributes to establish which channels are present,
+		and the relevant _type attributes to establish the data storage
+		format.
+
+		Since kernel 5.11 the scan_elements attributes are merged into
+		the bufferY directory, to be configurable per buffer.

+KernelVersion:	4.2
+Contact:	linux-iio@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+		A single positive integer specifying the maximum number of scan
+		elements to wait for.
+
+		Poll will block until the watermark is reached.
+
+		Blocking read will wait until the minimum between the requested
+		read amount or the low water mark is available.
+
+		Non-blocking read will retrieve the available samples from the
+		buffer even if there are less samples then watermark level. This
+		allows the application to block on poll with a timeout and read
+		the available samples after the timeout expires and thus have a
+		maximum delay guarantee.
+
+		Since Kernel 5.11, multiple buffers are supported.
+		so, it is better to use, instead:
