units: add conversion macros for percentage related units

2026-01-22T20:53:18+00:00

Add macros to convert between ratio and percentage related units, including percent (1/100), permille (1/1,000), permyriad (1/10,000, also equivalent to one Basis point) and per cent mille (1/100,000). Those are Used for precise fractional calculations in engineering, finance, and measurement applications. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Santos Reviewed-by: Andy Shevchenko Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron

units: complement the set of Hz units

2022-08-28T15:52:28+00:00

Currently, Hz units do not have milli, micro and nano Hz coefficients. Some drivers (IIO especially) use their analogues to calculate appropriate Hz values. This patch includes them to units.h definitions, so they can be used from different kernel places.

units: change from 'L' to 'UL'

2021-09-08T18:50:25+00:00

Patch series "Add Hz macros", v3. There are multiple definitions of the HZ_PER_MHZ or HZ_PER_KHZ in the different drivers. Instead of duplicating this definition again and again, add one in the units.h header to be reused in all the place the redefiniton occurs. At the same time, change the type of the Watts, as they can not be negative. This patch (of 10): The users of the macros are safe to be assigned with an unsigned instead of signed as the variables using them are themselves unsigned.
