Hi Jonathan,
Yes, it my first time here, nice to meet you.

I will remove the watermark related code in the next version. It seems in our
Kernel it is not used and I can't think of an use case where it can really be needed.

If I don't add this function I can't write to /dev/iio:deviceX from bash and our current tools
won't work without it, ex. Libiio/iiod as I found doing some test. So, I think it will be useful
to have it, if it is ok.

Given a write to the device takes a finite amount of time (often quite large)
you still want buffering even if potentially you want to update the device
as quickly as possible.  So you need to have some sort of management thread
in place.

For input devices we have something similar in
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/iio/trigger/iio-trig-loop.c
but things seem a little fiddlier for an output device given you want some
sort of 'loop until kfifo' empty.  Perhaps pausing the thread at that point
and waking it up again once there is new data would work.

Definitely doable but agreed it needs a user who cares!  The one mentioned
above was for drones where the most important thing was to get the data
off the sensors as fast as it possibly could.  Initial implementation had
a thread added to certain drivers to do this, but we moved to the loop trigger
as a cleaner way to do it without having to modify lots of drivers.

That code was the only one that ever got a "Tested-by: It's flying behind me" :)

Maybe iio_pop_from_buffer()? To be consistent with iio_push_to_buffer()...

What I meant was kind of just bypassing the buffer implementation
(in typical cases, kfifo) not the complete buffer infrastructure (as passing
a buffer with all scan bytes is better that writing each element 
separately in sysfs)...  So, we
would still have the write file ops but we would have a mechanism to
synchronously pass control the driver interested in this data. My point
was that at this level, we already now we have data for 'someone' to
consume. Taking a second look I guess we could even keep the FIFO
(even though, at first glance, it would not make much sense).  Or maybe,
we could have a special trigger as you said where we would just do
' iio_trigger_poll()' from the write() fops...

Anyways, as I said, this was just me throwing some stuff into the air. Mos likely,
this does not bring that much added value when compared with the possible
issues and subtleties I'm not seeing now.. Probably not doable and definitely
not a priority for now.

Hi Mihial,

Welcome to IIO (I don't think I've seen you before?)

Given the somewhat odd sign off trail I'd add some comments to the description
(probably not saying that everyone who works on this ends up leaving Analog.
It's not cursed! Really it's not ;)  Lars and I discussed this at least 7+ years
ago and he lasted ages at Analog after that *evil laugh*

I'm not really clear how the concept of a watermark applies here. It feels
like it's getting used for two unrelated things:
1) Space in buffer for polling form userspace.  We let userspace know it can
   write more data once the watermark worth of scans is empty.
2) Writing to the kfifo.  If a large write is attempted we do smaller writes to
   transfer some of the data into the kfifo which can then drain to the hardware.
   I can sort of see this might be beneficial as it provides batching.
They are somewhat related but it's not totally clear to me they should be the
same parameter.  Perhaps we need some more docs to explain how watermark is
used for output buffers?

As it stands there are some corner cases around this that look ominous to me...
See inline.

Why is the watermark relevant here?  We need enough space for the data
as written whatever the watermark is set to.
Been a while since I looked at equivalent write path, but I think there
we are interested in ensuring a hwfifo flushes out.  I'm don't think
the same concept exists in this direction.

Do we need to advance the buf pointer here and reduce n?  We may have written
some but not all the data.

That's interesting.  We should probably make sure we update docs to make
it clear that it has a different meaning for output buffers.  Guess that
might be later in this set though.

This is new.  We don't need to support the old API.  If we can make sure
it never appears in the old API at all that would be great.

sample or scan?  Sample would be a single value for a single channel,
scan would be updates for all channels that are enabled.

Given the below, how did it get into the list?  I think that check should be

Can you do this outside of the lock as a sanity check before this function really

htrimer-trigger effectively gives you the hrtimer option but lets you swap
it for other types. Maybe updating your DAC in sync with an ADC dataready to
change some input to a network you are measuring? 

An external pwm type trigger (effectively a hwtrigger) would indeed be
useful for much the same reason those get used for ADCs on SoCs.  For ADCs
that are doing self clocking you can think of that as an internal pwm trigger
that we can't see at all.

If you are running without a buffer, the overhead of sysfs is unlikely to
be a particularly big problem, so do it that way if you want synchronous
control.  The purpose of the buffer is to smooth out those interactions.

I guess it 'might' make sense to have a special trigger that is a similar
to the poll trigger in that it will push data to the device as quickly
as possible as long as there is some there...  That would look like a
synchronous interface.

I was wondering about adding this wrapper or not.
It's technically allowing some classical buffer access for DACs by

Which should be fine.
And [personally] I do like this convenience for simple DACs.

Even though I do not agree that this is suficient, we should have the
same check as we have for input buffer:


if (!indio_dev->info)
	return -ENODEV;

I had a bit of a crazy thought... Typically, output devices do not
really have a typical trigger as we are used to have in input devices.
Hence, typically we just use a hrtimer (maybe a pwm-trigger can also be
added) trigger where we kind of poll the buffer for new data to send to
the device. So, I was wondering if we could just optionally bypass the
kbuf path in output devices (via some optional buffer option)? At this
point, we pretty much already know that we have data to consume :).
This would be kind of a synchronous interface. One issue I see with
this is that we cannot really have a deterministic (or close) sampling
frequency as we have for example with a pwm based trigger.

Anyways, just me throwing some ideas. This is not the most important
thing for now...

* [PATCH v4 1/6] iio: Add output buffer support

From: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de>

Currently IIO only supports buffer mode for capture devices like ADCs. Add
support for buffered mode for output devices like DACs.

The output buffer implementation is analogous to the input buffer
implementation. Instead of using read() to get data from the buffer write()
is used to copy data into the buffer.

poll() with POLLOUT will wakeup if there is space available for more or
equal to the configured watermark of samples.

Drivers can remove data from a buffer using iio_buffer_remove_sample(), the
function can e.g. called from a trigger handler to write the data to
hardware.

A buffer can only be either a output buffer or an input, but not both. So,
for a device that has an ADC and DAC path, this will mean 2 IIO buffers
(one for each direction).

The direction of the buffer is decided by the new direction field of the
iio_buffer struct and should be set after allocating and before registering
it.
