Subject: [PATCH v3 02/11] iio: core: register chardev only if needed
Date: Mon, 1 Feb 2021 16:50:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210201145105.20459-3-alexandru.ardelean@analog.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210201145105.20459-1-alexandru.ardelean@analog.com>
We only need a chardev if we need to support buffers and/or events.
With this change, a chardev will be created only if an IIO buffer is
attached OR an event_interface is configured.
Otherwise, no chardev will be created, and the IIO device will get
registered with the 'device_add()' call.
Quite a lot of IIO devices don't really need a chardev, so this is a minor
improvement to the IIO core, as the IIO device will take up (slightly)
fewer resources.
In order to not create a chardev, we mostly just need to not initialize the
indio_dev->dev.devt field. If that is un-initialized, cdev_device_add()
behaves like device_add().
