Hi!

This moves the iio-mux driver to a new category, since I think
it will be the single driver in that category forever, and now
I'm adding a new driver that is somewhat similar in nature...

But that rename is not very interesting, it's just reshuffling.
It's the new driver that I need. Specifically, I need to allow
linear scaling and modification of the type of an io-channel.
I don't know exactly how that is accomplished in the best way,
but this is what I came up with.

The use cases are an ADC hooked up to measure a "big" voltage by
looking at the midpoint of a voltage divider, and an ADC used
to measure the current by looking at the voltage over a resistor.

Comments?

Cheers,
Peter

It is pretty much how I would have implemented it as well.

Will probably do a detailed review over the weekend.
Not convinced entirely on the 'wrapper' naming though.
Will think about it...

Yeah, let's put 'Wrapper' in the crapper. Not married to it.

Miscellaneous?

So, not super-happy about that either. And maybe leave the mux
where it is? It's just that I have the feeling that the iio-mux
is never going to get any friends in its category, and the mux
and the unit-converter are kind of related in that they operate
on other channels. But maybe that's only logical it you know how
they are implemented...

Cheers,
Peter

Perhaps Analog Front ends?
We could move the amplifier driver into the same directory as well,
though right now that driver is not passing the channels through
(it's often used without there being an IIO ADC behind it I think...)

A few comments inline, but basically the code looks fine, just questions
around naming and bindings to answer.

Thanks,

Slightly clearer and less likely to give warningss from static checkers
if you put that return in a default:

Talk me through the logic of having this...  Supporting a DAC?
Bindings don't talk about that possibility...

if the parent doesn't support RAW, is there a lot of point in carrying on?

(passive) linear scaler?
analog linear scaler?
But maybe these supersets are not broad enough.

Or just invent another acronym akin to "PHY" such as
"AIF" (analog interface)?

AFE (analog front end) is commonly used, but I'm not sure if implies
more than we want here.  Lars, Michael this is more your area than
mine - what do you think?

We could call it an amplifier and be done with it but that wouldn't
really encompass the fact we are also changing it's apparent measurement
from voltage to current because we know enough about the circuit to do
so...

Nope, better to error out I suppose. But I'm not familiar with channels
without RAW, what alternatives are there anyway?

Potentially _PROCESSED though that will need somewhat different handling.
A nasty trick for that might be to map it to RAW and then have the SCALE
reflect the divider circuit scale only.

It's perfectly possible to have channels with neither _RAW or _PROCESSED
but I suspect we don't care about them here.

There might be an application that needs to do buffered data flows in the
long run, but we can figure out how to do that when one exists.

It won't be a huge amount more than you have here, though we might need
a trigger pass through as well to allow you to set the trigger for
the front end and having it automatically applied to the backend.

Hmm, I think a lot of things might assume RAW to be a pure integer, and
maybe they are even correct to do so? So yes, that seems nasty indeed...

Yes, this is the same for the iio-mux. I don't need it, I in fact need
very little bandwidth for these things. Someone with an itch will have
to fill in the buffer/trigger handling...

Seems unlikely to occur often as ADCs are mostly linear, but you never
know...  We'll figure it out when it happens.
