I started looking at this patch because of the phoronix' news item on it. First of all I want to say that it is great that AMD is working on getting the Sensor Fusion Hub supported on Linux and that you are working on a driver for this. But, I've taken a quick look, mainly at the "[PATCH v3 5/5] SFH: Create HID report to Enable support of AMD sensor fusion Hub (SFH)" patch. AFAIK with the Intel ISH the sensor-hub itself is actually providing HID descriptors and HID input reports. Looking at the AMD code, that does not seem to be the case, it seems the values come directly from the AMD sensor-hub without being in any HID specific form, e.g.: +u8 get_input_report(int sensor_idx, int report_id, + u8 *input_report, u32 *sensor_virt_addr) +{ + u8 report_size = 0; + struct accel3_input_report acc_input; + struct gyro_input_report gyro_input; + struct magno_input_report magno_input; + struct als_input_report als_input; + + if (!sensor_virt_addr || !input_report) + return report_size; + + switch (sensor_idx) { + case ACCEL_IDX: /* accel */ + acc_input.common_property.report_id = report_id; + acc_input.common_property.sensor_state = + HID_USAGE_SENSOR_STATE_READY_ENUM; + acc_input.common_property.event_type = + HID_USAGE_SENSOR_EVENT_DATA_UPDATED_ENUM; + acc_input.in_accel_x_value = (int)sensor_virt_addr[0] / + AMD_SFH_FIRMWARE_MULTIPLIER; + acc_input.in_accel_y_value = (int)sensor_virt_addr[1] / + AMD_SFH_FIRMWARE_MULTIPLIER; + acc_input.in_accel_z_value = (int)sensor_virt_addr[2] / + AMD_SFH_FIRMWARE_MULTIPLIER; + memcpy(input_report, &acc_input, sizeof(acc_input)); + report_size = sizeof(acc_input); + break; And the descriptors are hardcoded in the driver so as to fake a HID device. So going through the HID subsystem seems like an unnecessary detour, which just makes things needlessly complex and harder to debug (and extend). The HID devices which the current patch-set is creating ultimately will result in a number of devices being created under /sys/bus/iio/devices And this are the devices which userspace uses to get the sensor data. IMHO instead of going through the HID subsys the AMD Sensor Fusion Hub driver should simply register 4 (*) iio-devices itself and directly pass the data through at the iio subsys level rather then going the long way around by creating a fake HID device which then gets attached to by the hid-sensor driver to ultimately create the same iio-devices. There are examples of e.g. various iio accel drivers under: drivers/iio/accel/ you could start with a simple driver supporting just the accelerometer bits and then extend things from there. Benjamin, Jiri, Jonathan, what is your take on this?
