Another wriggle to watch out for is your on-disk block allocation strategy.
why? Because, if you undo a delete, you need to ensure you haven't reused any
of the freed blocks in a later transaction. One simple way of doing this
is make sure any blocks you allocate only have checkpointed transactions
listed against them. Ext3 does this in ext3_test_allocatable().
Why? Because, if you do a delete, you need to ensure you haven't reused any
of the freed blocks until the transaction freeing these blocks commits. If you
reused these blocks and crash happens, there is no way to restore the contents
of the reallocated blocks at the end of the last fully committed transaction.
One simple way of doing this is to mark blocks as free in internal in-memory
block allocation structures only after the transaction freeing them commits.
Ext4 uses journal commit callback for this purpose.
</para>
<para>
Lock is also providing through journal_{un,}lock_updates(),
ext3 uses this when it wants a window with a clean and stable fs for a moment.
eg.
With journal commit callbacks you can ask the journalling layer to call a
callback function when the transaction is finally committed to disk, so that
you can do some of your own management. You ask the journalling layer for
calling the callback by simply setting journal->j_commit_callback function
pointer and that function is called after each transaction commit. You can also
use transaction->t_private_list for attaching entries to a transaction that
need processing when the transaction commits.
</para>
<para>
JBD2 also provides a way to block all transaction updates via
jbd2_journal_{un,}lock_updates(). Ext4 uses this when it wants a window with a
clean and stable fs for a moment. E.g.

journal_lock_updates() //stop new stuff happening..
journal_flush() // checkpoint everything.

<title>Introduction</title>
<para>
The main purpose of the Industrial I/O subsystem (IIO) is to provide
support for devices that in some sense perform either analog-to-digital
conversion (ADC) or digital-to-analog conversion (DAC) or both. The aim
is to fill the gap between the somewhat similar hwmon and input
subsystems.
Hwmon is directed at low sample rate sensors used to monitor and
control the system itself, like fan speed control or temperature
measurement. Input is, as its name suggests, focused on human interaction
input devices (keyboard, mouse, touchscreen). In some cases there is
considerable overlap between these and IIO.

Attributes are sysfs files used to expose chip info and also allowing
applications to set various configuration parameters. For device
with index X, attributes can be found under
<filename>/sys/bus/iio/iio:deviceX/ </filename> directory.
Common attributes are:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><filename>name</filename>, description of the physical
chip.
</listitem>
<listitem><filename>dev</filename>, shows the major:minor pair
associated with <filename>/dev/iio:deviceX</filename> node.
</listitem>
<listitem><filename>sampling_frequency_available</filename>,
available discrete set of sampling frequency values for
device.
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
Available standard attributes for IIO devices are described in the
<filename>Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio </filename> file
in the Linux kernel sources.

</sect2>
<sect2 id="iiochannel"> <title> IIO device channels </title>
!Finclude/linux/iio/iio.h iio_chan_spec structure.
<para>
An IIO device channel is a representation of a data channel. An
IIO device can have one or multiple channels. For example:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
a thermometer sensor has one channel representing the
temperature measurement.
</listitem>
<listitem>
a light sensor with two channels indicating the measurements in
the visible and infrared spectrum.
</listitem>
<listitem>
an accelerometer can have up to 3 channels representing
acceleration on X, Y and Z axes.
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
An IIO channel is described by the <type> struct iio_chan_spec
</type>. A thermometer driver for the temperature sensor in the
example above would have to describe its channel as follows:
<programlisting>
static const struct iio_chan_spec temp_channel[] = {
{
.type = IIO_TEMP,
.info_mask_separate = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_PROCESSED),
},
};
</programlisting>
Channel sysfs attributes exposed to userspace are specified in
the form of <emphasis>bitmasks</emphasis>. Depending on their
shared info, attributes can be set in one of the following masks:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><emphasis>info_mask_separate</emphasis>, attributes will
be specific to this channel</listitem>
<listitem><emphasis>info_mask_shared_by_type</emphasis>,
attributes are shared by all channels of the same type</listitem>
<listitem><emphasis>info_mask_shared_by_dir</emphasis>, attributes
are shared by all channels of the same direction </listitem>
<listitem><emphasis>info_mask_shared_by_all</emphasis>,
attributes are shared by all channels</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
When there are multiple data channels per channel type we have two
ways to distinguish between them:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem> set <emphasis> .modified</emphasis> field of <type>
iio_chan_spec</type> to 1. Modifiers are specified using
<emphasis>.channel2</emphasis> field of the same
<type>iio_chan_spec</type> structure and are used to indicate a
physically unique characteristic of the channel such as its direction
or spectral response. For example, a light sensor can have two channels,
one for infrared light and one for both infrared and visible light.
</listitem>
<listitem> set <emphasis>.indexed </emphasis> field of
<type>iio_chan_spec</type> to 1. In this case the channel is
simply another instance with an index specified by the
<emphasis>.channel</emphasis> field.
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
Here is how we can make use of the channel's modifiers:
<programlisting>
static const struct iio_chan_spec light_channels[] = {
{
.type = IIO_INTENSITY,
.modified = 1,
.channel2 = IIO_MOD_LIGHT_IR,
.info_mask_separate = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW),
.info_mask_shared = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_SAMP_FREQ),
},
{
.type = IIO_INTENSITY,
.modified = 1,
.channel2 = IIO_MOD_LIGHT_BOTH,
.info_mask_separate = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW),
.info_mask_shared = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_SAMP_FREQ),
},
{
.type = IIO_LIGHT,
.info_mask_separate = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_PROCESSED),
.info_mask_shared = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_SAMP_FREQ),
},
}
</programlisting>
This channel's definition will generate two separate sysfs files
for raw data retrieval:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<filename>/sys/bus/iio/iio:deviceX/in_intensity_ir_raw</filename>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<filename>/sys/bus/iio/iio:deviceX/in_intensity_both_raw</filename>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
one file for processed data:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<filename>/sys/bus/iio/iio:deviceX/in_illuminance_input
</filename>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
and one shared sysfs file for sampling frequency:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<filename>/sys/bus/iio/iio:deviceX/sampling_frequency.
</filename>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</para>
<para>
Here is how we can make use of the channel's indexing:
<programlisting>
static const struct iio_chan_spec light_channels[] = {
{
.type = IIO_VOLTAGE,
.indexed = 1,
.channel = 0,
.info_mask_separate = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW),
},
{
.type = IIO_VOLTAGE,
.indexed = 1,
.channel = 1,
.info_mask_separate = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW),
},
}
</programlisting>
This will generate two separate attributes files for raw data
retrieval:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<filename>/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_voltage0_raw</filename>,
representing voltage measurement for channel 0.

For example, a driver for a 3-axis accelerometer with 12 bit
resolution where data is stored in two 8-bits registers as
follows:
<programlisting>
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
|D3 |D2 |D1 |D0 | X | X | X | X | (LOW byte, address 0x06)

+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
|D11|D10|D9 |D8 |D7 |D6 |D5 |D4 | (HIGH byte, address 0x07)
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
</programlisting>
will have the following scan element type for each axis:
<programlisting>
$ cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0/scan_elements/in_accel_y_type
le:s12/16>>4
</programlisting>
A user space application will interpret data samples read from the
buffer as two byte little endian signed data, that needs a 4 bits
right shift before masking out the 12 valid bits of data.
</para>
<para>
For implementing buffer support a driver should initialize the following
fields in <type>iio_chan_spec</type> definition:
<programlisting>
struct iio_chan_spec {
/* other members */
int scan_index
struct {
char sign;
u8 realbits;
u8 storagebits;
u8 shift;
u8 repeat;
enum iio_endian endianness;
} scan_type;
};
</programlisting>
The driver implementing the accelerometer described above will
have the following channel definition:
<programlisting>
struct struct iio_chan_spec accel_channels[] = {
{
.type = IIO_ACCEL,
.modified = 1,
.channel2 = IIO_MOD_X,
/* other stuff here */
.scan_index = 0,
.scan_type = {
.sign = 's',
.realbits = 12,
.storgebits = 16,
.shift = 4,
.endianness = IIO_LE,
},
}
/* similar for Y (with channel2 = IIO_MOD_Y, scan_index = 1)
* and Z (with channel2 = IIO_MOD_Z, scan_index = 2) axis
*/
}
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
Here <emphasis> scan_index </emphasis> defines the order in which
the enabled channels are placed inside the buffer. Channels with a lower
scan_index will be placed before channels with a higher index. Each
channel needs to have a unique scan_index.
</para>
<para>
Setting scan_index to -1 can be used to indicate that the specific
channel does not support buffered capture. In this case no entries will
be created for the channel in the scan_elements directory.

!Finclude/linux/iio/trigger.h iio_trigger
!Edrivers/iio/industrialio-trigger.c
<para>
In many situations it is useful for a driver to be able to
capture data based on some external event (trigger) as opposed
to periodically polling for data. An IIO trigger can be provided
by a device driver that also has an IIO device based on hardware
generated events (e.g. data ready or threshold exceeded) or
provided by a separate driver from an independent interrupt
source (e.g. GPIO line connected to some external system, timer
interrupt or user space writing a specific file in sysfs). A
trigger may initiate data capture for a number of sensors and
also it may be completely unrelated to the sensor itself.
</para>
<sect2 id="iiotrigsysfs"> <title> IIO trigger sysfs interface </title>
There are two locations in sysfs related to triggers:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><filename>/sys/bus/iio/devices/triggerY</filename>,
this file is created once an IIO trigger is registered with
the IIO core and corresponds to trigger with index Y. Because
triggers can be very different depending on type there are few
standard attributes that we can describe here:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<emphasis>name</emphasis>, trigger name that can be later
used for association with a device.
</listitem>
<listitem>
<emphasis>sampling_frequency</emphasis>, some timer based
triggers use this attribute to specify the frequency for
trigger calls.
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<filename>/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/trigger/</filename>, this
directory is created once the device supports a triggered
buffer. We can associate a trigger with our device by writing
the trigger's name in the <filename>current_trigger</filename> file.
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</sect2>
<sect2 id="iiotrigattr"> <title> IIO trigger setup</title>
<para>
Let's see a simple example of how to setup a trigger to be used
by a driver.
<programlisting>
struct iio_trigger_ops trigger_ops = {
.set_trigger_state = sample_trigger_state,
.validate_device = sample_validate_device,
}
struct iio_trigger *trig;
/* first, allocate memory for our trigger */
trig = iio_trigger_alloc(dev, "trig-%s-%d", name, idx);
/* setup trigger operations field */
trig->ops = &amp;trigger_ops;
/* now register the trigger with the IIO core */
iio_trigger_register(trig);
</programlisting>
</para>
</sect2>

<itemizedlist>
<listitem>

on demand.
</listitem>
<listitem>
<function>validate_device</function>, function to validate the

<programlisting>
const struct iio_buffer_setup_ops sensor_buffer_setup_ops = {

The important things to notice here are:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><function> iio_buffer_setup_ops</function>, the buffer setup
functions to be called at predefined points in the buffer configuration
sequence (e.g. before enable, after disable). If not specified, the
IIO core uses the default <type>iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ops</type>.
</listitem>
<listitem><function>sensor_iio_pollfunc</function>, the function that
will be used as top half of poll function. It should do as little
processing as possible, because it runs in interrupt context. The most
common operation is recording of the current timestamp and for this reason
one can use the IIO core defined <function>iio_pollfunc_store_time
</function> function.
</listitem>
<listitem><function>sensor_trigger_handler</function>, the function that
will be used as bottom half of the poll function. This runs in the
context of a kernel thread and all the processing takes place here.
It usually reads data from the device and stores it in the internal
buffer together with the timestamp recorded in the top half.
