Hi Rohit, A couple of questions. Do you have a gsoc mentor lined up? You should discuss a proposal with whoever that is. My gut feeling is that the features suggested by Jean-Baptisite do not form a particularly good focus for the body of a gsoc project. There are too many rather disassociated items, without a connected 'story'. They are good items for getting familiar with the subsystem and a particular driver but for the actual project you probably want something that is more 'yours' in the sense that you drive it from initial prototypes through to final upstream code. Previous projects have (I think) mostly centred on support for a new driver. Thanks, Jonathan ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Do you have a gsoc mentor lined up? On the GSOC IIO page (https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/gsoc/2020-gsoc-iio-driver) Dragos has been listed as a mentor.

There might be something, but that sort of project is much harder to structure than a clear implement something. There are always new devices that don't have drivers that someone is interested in supporting. The main requirement is to find find something that the mentor things is the right balance of complex and not too complex to support. The link you have above suggests Dragos was thinking of an Analog devices part (which makes sense given his day job ;) You are still fairly early (which is great) so it may well be that Dragos hasn't yet spun up for this round.

I have indeed reached out to Dragos and it seems the IIO GSOC page has been updated since this mail chain was started. Hijacking this mail thread for another question I had: The page mentions that the recommended hardware is a Raspberry pi model 3 B+, I recently got a RPi 4 model B to facilitate my development in the iio subsystem, will that be fine? > > > > > Thanks, > > > > > > Jonathan > > > > > > > > Thanks, > > Rohit > Thanks, Rohit ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
