iio: core: add high pass filter attributes

2015-05-17T09:32:35+00:00

Add a high pass filter attribute for measurements
(like the existing low pass)

Also add both high and low pass attributes for events.

iio: Export userspace IIO headers

2015-02-14T17:05:03+00:00

After UAPI header file split [1] all user-kernel interfaces were
placed under include/uapi/.

This patch moves IIO user specific API from:
	* include/linux/iio/events.h => include/uapi/linux/iio/events.h
	* include/linux/types.h => include/uapi/linux/types.h

Now there is no need for nasty tricks to compile userspace programs
(e.g iio_event_monitor). Just installing the kernel headers with
make headers_install command does the job.

iio: core: Remove IIO_EV_TYPE_INSTANCE

2015-01-27T18:49:55+00:00

By introducing IIO_EV_TYPE_CHANGE, IIO_EV_TYPE_INSTANCE becomes redundant.
The effect of IIO_EV_TYPE_INSTANCE can be obtained by using IIO_EV_TYPE_CHANGE
with IIO_EV_INFO_VALUE set to 1.

Remove all instances of IIO_EV_TYPE_INSTANCE and replace them with
IIO_EV_TYPE_CHANGE where needed.

iio: core: Introduce CHANGE event type

2015-01-27T18:49:55+00:00

A step detector will generate an interrupt each time N step are detected.
A device that has such pedometer functionality is Freescale's MMA9553L:

Introduce IIO_EV_TYPE_CHANGE event type for events that are generated
when the channel passes a threshold on the absolute change in value.

iio: core: Introduce IIO_VELOCITY and IIO_MOD_ROOT_SUM_SQUARED_X_Y_Z

2015-01-27T18:49:54+00:00

Some devices export the current speed value of the user.

One of this devices is Freescale's MMA9553L
(http://www.freescale.com/files/sensors/doc/ref_manual/MMA9553LSWRM.pdf)
that computes the speed of the user based on the number of steps and
stride length.

Introduce a new channel type VELOCITY and a modifier for the magniture or
norm of the velocity vector, IIO_MOD_ROOT_SUM_SQUARED_X_Y_Z.

iio: core: Introduce DISTANCE channel type

2015-01-27T18:49:53+00:00

Some devices export an estimation of the distance the user has covered
since the last reset.

One of this devices is Freescale's MMA9553L
(http://www.freescale.com/files/sensors/doc/ref_manual/MMA9553LSWRM.pdf)
that computes the distance based on the stride length and step rate.

Introduce a new channel type DISTANCE to export these values.

iio: core: Introduce ENERGY channel type

2015-01-27T18:49:52+00:00

Human activity sensors report the energy burnt by the user.
One of this devices is Freescale's MMA9553L
(http://www.freescale.com/files/sensors/doc/ref_manual/MMA9553LSWRM.pdf)
that computes the number of calories based on weight and step rate.

Introduce a new channel type ENERGY to export these values.

iio: core: Introduce STEPS channel, ENABLE mask and INSTANCE event

2014-11-22T11:05:51+00:00

These changes are needed to support the functionality of a pedometer.
A pedometer has two basic functionalities: step counter and step detector.

The step counter needs to be enabled and then it will count the steps
in its hardware register. Whenever the application needs to check
the step count, it will read the step counter register. To support the
step counter a new channel type STEPS is added. Since the pedometer needs
to be enabled first so that the hardware can count and store the steps,
we need a specific ENABLE channel info mask.

The step detector will generate an interrupt each time a step is detected.
To support this functionality we add a new event type INSTANCE.

For more information on the Android requirements for step counter and step
detector see:
http://source.android.com/devices/sensors/composite_sensors.html#counter
and http://source.android.com/devices/sensors/composite_sensors.html#detector.

A device that has the pedometer functionality this interface needs to
support is Freescale's MMA9553L:

iio: core: Introduce IIO_EV_DIR_NONE

2014-11-22T11:05:49+00:00

For some events (e.g.: step detector) a direction does not make sense.

Add IIO_EV_DIR_NONE to be used with such events and generate sysfs event
attributes that do not contain direction.

iio: core: Introduce IIO_ACTIVITY channel

2014-11-22T11:05:47+00:00

This channel will be used for exposing information about
activity composite sensors. Activities supported so far:
	* running
	* jogging
	* walking
	* still

THRESHOLD event is used to signal a change in the activity
state.

We associate a confidence interval for each activity expressed
as a percentage from 0 to 100.
  * 0, means the sensor IS NOT reporting that activity.
  * 100, means the sensor IS reporting that activity.

Users of this interface have two possible means to gather
information about the ongoing activities.

1. Event based, via event file descriptor
  * sensor may report an event when ENTERING an activity or LEAVING
    an activity based on a threshold value.
  * drivers will wake up applications waiting data on the event fd

2. Polling, by reading the sysfs associated attribute files:
  * /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0/in_activity_running_input
expressed as percentage confidence value from 0 to 100.

This will offer an interface for Android significant motion
composite sensor defined here:
http://source.android.com/devices/sensors/composite_sensors.html

Activities listed above are supported by Freescale's MMA9553 sensor:
