iio: hid-sensors: Use software trigger

2026-03-01T12:18:13+00:00

Recent changes linux mainline resulted in warning: "genirq: Warn about using IRQF_ONESHOT without a threaded handler" when HID sensor hub is used. When INDIO_BUFFER_TRIGGERED is used, the core attaches a poll function when enabling the buffer. This poll function uses request_threaded_irq() with both bottom half and top half handlers. But when using HID sensor hub, bottom half (thread handler) is not registered. In HID sensors, once a sensor is powered on, the hub collects samples and pushes data to the host when programmed thresholds are met. When this data is received for a sensor, it is pushed using iio_push_to_buffers_with_ts(). The sensor is powered ON or OFF based on the trigger callback set_trigger_state() when the poll function is attached. During the call to iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext(), the HID sensor specifies only a handler function but provides no thread handler, as there is no data to read from the hub in thread context. Internally, this results in calling request_threaded_irq(). Recent kernel changes now warn when request_threaded_irq() is called without a thread handler. To address this issue, fundamental changes are required to avoid using iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext(). HID sensors can use INDIO_BUFFER_SOFTWARE instead of INDIO_BUFFER_TRIGGERED, as this can work in trigger-less mode. In this approach, when user space opens the buffer, the sensor is powered on, and when the buffer is closed, the sensor is powered off using iio_buffer_setup_ops callbacks.

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28+00:00

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

iio: cros_ec: Allow enabling/disabling calibration mode

2026-01-29T17:35:31+00:00

'calibrate' was a one-shot event sent to the sensor to calibrate itself. It is used on Bosch sensors (BMI160, BMA254). Light sensors work differently: They are first put in calibration mode, tests are run to collect information and calculate the calibration values to apply. Once done, the sensors are put back in normal mode. Accept boolean true and false (not just true) to enter/exit calibration state. Check "echo 0 > calibrate" is supported.

iio: core: Match iio_device_claim_*() semantics and implementation

2026-01-22T20:53:17+00:00

Implement iio_device_claim_buffer_mode() fully inline with the use of __iio_dev_mode_lock(), which takes care of sparse annotations. To completely match iio_device_claim_direct() semantics, we need to also change iio_device_claim_buffer_mode() return semantics to usual true/false conditional lock semantics. Additionally, to avoid silently breaking out-of-tree drivers, rename iio_device_claim_buffer_mode() to iio_device_claim_try_buffer_mode().

iio: common: scmi_sensors: Get rid of const_ilog2()

2025-11-09T14:58:56+00:00

Fisrt of all, const_ilog2() was a workaround of some sparse issue, which was never appeared in the C functions. Second, the calls here are done against constants and work with a bit of luck. Replace this altogether by a pre-calculated simple integer constant. Amend a comment to give a hint where it comes from. Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron
