Description
This is a Linux industrial I/O (Linux Industrial I/O Subsystem) subsystem driver, targeting serial interface Accelerometer. The industrial I/O subsystem provides a unified framework for drivers for many different types of converters and sensors using a number of different physical interfaces (i2c, spi, etc). See Linux Industrial I/O Subsystem for more information.

Unlike PCI or USB devices, SPI devices are not enumerated at the hardware level. Instead, the software must know which devices are connected on each SPI bus segment, and what slave selects these devices are using. For this reason, the kernel code must instantiate SPI devices explicitly. The most common method is to declare the SPI devices by bus number.
This method is appropriate when the SPI bus is a system bus, as in many
embedded systems, wherein each SPI bus has a number which is known in advance.
It is thus possible to pre-declare the SPI devices that inhabit this bus. This
is done with an array of struct spi_board_info, which is registered by
calling spi_register_board_info().
For more information see: Overview of Linux kernel SPI support
Depending on the converter IC used, you may need to set the modalias accordingly, matching your part name. It may also required to adjust max_speed_hz. Please consult the datasheet, for maximum spi clock supported by the device in question.

Hardware configuration
Driver testing
Each and every IIO device, typically a hardware chip, has a device folder under
/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX. Where X is the IIO index of the device. Under
every of these directory folders reside a set of files, depending on the
characteristics and features of the hardware device in question. These files
are consistently generalized and documented in the IIO ABI documentation. In
order to determine which IIO deviceX corresponds to which hardware device, the
user can read the name file /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/name. In case
the sequence in which the iio device drivers are loaded/registered is constant,
the numbering is constant and may be known in advance.

Buffer management

bytes_per_datum enable length
The Industrial I/O subsystem provides support for various ring buffer based
data acquisition methods. Apart from device specific hardware buffer support,
the user can chose between two different software ring buffer implementations.
One is the IIO lock free software ring, and the other is based on Linux kfifo.
Devices with buffer support feature an additional sub-folder in the
/sys/bus/iio/devices/deviceX/ folder hierarchy. Called deviceX:bufferY,
where Y defaults to 0, for devices with a single buffer.
Every buffer implementation features a set of files:
- length
Get/set the number of sample sets that may be held by the buffer.
- enable
Enables/disables the buffer. This file should be written last, after length and selection of scan elements.
- watermark
A single positive integer specifying the maximum number of scan elements to wait for. Poll will block until the watermark is reached. Blocking read will wait until the minimum between the requested read amount or the low water mark is available. Non-blocking read will retrieve the available samples from the buffer even if there are less samples then watermark level. This allows the application to block on poll with a timeout and read the available samples after the timeout expires and thus have a maximum delay guarantee.
- data_available
A read-only value indicating the bytes of data available in the buffer. In the case of an output buffer, this indicates the amount of empty space available to write data to. In the case of an input buffer, this indicates the amount of data available for reading.
- length_align_bytes
Using the high-speed interface. DMA buffers may have an alignment requirement for the buffer length. Newer versions of the kernel will report the alignment requirements associated with a device through the
length_align_bytesproperty.- scan_elements
The scan_elements directory contains interfaces for elements that will be captured for a single triggered sample set in the buffer.

- in_voltageX_en / in_voltageX-voltageY_en / timestamp_en:
Scan element control for triggered data capture. Writing 1 will enable the scan element, writing 0 will disable it
- in_voltageX_type / in_voltageX-voltageY_type / timestamp_type:
Description of the scan element data storage within the buffer and therefore in the form in which it is read from user-space. Form is [s|u]bits/storage-bits. s or u specifies if signed (2’s complement) or unsigned. bits is the number of bits of data and storage-bits is the space (after padding) that it occupies in the buffer. Note that some devices will have additional information in the unused bits so to get a clean value, the bits value must be used to mask the buffer output value appropriately. The storage-bits value also specifies the data alignment. So u12/16 will be a unsigned 12 bit integer stored in a 16 bit location aligned to a 16 bit boundary. For other storage combinations this attribute will be extended appropriately.
- in_voltageX_index / in_voltageX-voltageY_index / timestamp_index:
A single positive integer specifying the position of this scan element in the buffer. Note these are not dependent on what is enabled and may not be contiguous. Thus for user-space to establish the full layout these must be used in conjunction with all _en attributes to establish which channels are present, and the relevant _type attributes to establish the data storage format.
