| HW consumer |
| =========== |
| An IIO device can be directly connected to another device in hardware. In this |
| case the buffers between IIO provider and IIO consumer are handled by hardware. |
| The Industrial I/O HW consumer offers a way to bond these IIO devices without |
| software buffer for data. The implementation can be found under |
| :file:`drivers/iio/buffer/hw-consumer.c` |
| |
| |
| * struct iio_hw_consumer — Hardware consumer structure |
| * :c:func:`iio_hw_consumer_alloc` — Allocate IIO hardware consumer |
| * :c:func:`iio_hw_consumer_free` — Free IIO hardware consumer |
| * :c:func:`iio_hw_consumer_enable` — Enable IIO hardware consumer |
| * :c:func:`iio_hw_consumer_disable` — Disable IIO hardware consumer |

| HW consumer setup |
| ================= |
| |
| As standard IIO device the implementation is based on IIO provider/consumer. |
| A typical IIO HW consumer setup looks like this:: |
| |
| static struct iio_hw_consumer *hwc; |
| |
| static const struct iio_info adc_info = { |
| .read_raw = adc_read_raw, |
| }; |
| |
| static int adc_read_raw(struct iio_dev *indio_dev, |
| struct iio_chan_spec const *chan, int *val, |
| int *val2, long mask) |
| { |
| ret = iio_hw_consumer_enable(hwc); |
| |
| /* Acquire data */ |
| |
| ret = iio_hw_consumer_disable(hwc); |
| } |
| |
| static int adc_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) |
| { |
| hwc = devm_iio_hw_consumer_alloc(&iio->dev); |
| } |
