iio: proximity: vl53l0x-i2c: claim direct mode for raw readsgrafted
vl53l0x_read_raw() starts a single-shot ranging measurement and reads
back the result. Once the triggered buffer is enabled the sensor runs in
continuous mode and its data-ready interrupt is routed to the trigger,
so a concurrent in_distance_raw read disturbs the streaming setup and
never gets its completion, returning -ETIMEDOUT.
The original submission claimed direct mode here, but it was dropped
during review because the driver had no buffer support at the time [1].
Continuous (buffered) mode was later added without restoring the
claim [2], reintroducing the conflict.
Reject direct reads while buffered capture is active by claiming direct
mode around the measurement, as the vl53l1x sibling already does.

The aoetools are on sourceforge. + + http://aoetools.sourceforge.net/ + +The scripts in this Documentation/admin-guide/aoe directory are intended to +document the use of the driver and are not necessary if you install +the aoetools. + + +Creating Device Nodes +===================== + + Users of udev should find the block device nodes created + automatically, but to create all the necessary device nodes, use the + udev configuration rules provided in udev.txt (in this directory). + + There is a udev-install.sh script that shows how to install these + rules on your system. + + There is also an autoload script that shows how to edit + /etc/modprobe.d/aoe.conf to ensure that the aoe module is loaded when + necessary. Preloading the aoe module is preferable to autoloading, + however, because AoE discovery takes a few seconds. It can be + confusing when an AoE device is not present the first time the a + command is run but appears a second later. + +Using Device Nodes +================== + + "cat /dev/etherd/err" blocks, waiting for error diagnostic output, + like any retransmitted packets. + + "echo eth2 eth4 > /dev/etherd/interfaces" tells the aoe driver to + limit ATA over Ethernet traffic to eth2 and eth4. AoE traffic from + untrusted networks should be ignored as a matter of security. See + also the aoe_iflist driver option described below. + + "echo > /dev/etherd/discover" tells the driver to find out what AoE + devices are available. + + In the future these character devices may disappear and be replaced + by sysfs counterparts. Using the commands in aoetools insulates + users from these implementation details. + + The block devices are named like this:: + + e{shelf}.{slot} + e{shelf}.{slot}p{part} + + ... so that "e0.2" is the third blade from the left (slot 2) in the + first shelf (shelf address zero). That's the whole disk. The first + partition on that disk would be "e0.2p1". + +Using sysfs +=========== + + Each aoe block device in /sys/block has the extra attributes of + state, mac, and netif. The state attribute is "up" when the device + is ready for I/O and "down" if detected but unusable. The + "down,closewait" state shows that the device is still open and + cannot come up again until it has been closed. + + The mac attribute is the ethernet address of the remote AoE device. + The netif attribute is the network interface on the localhost + through which we are communicating with the remote AoE device. + + There is a script in this directory that formats this information in + a convenient way. Users with aoetools should use the aoe-stat + command:: + + root@makki root# sh Documentation/admin-guide/aoe/status.sh + e10.0 eth3 up + e10.1 eth3 up + e10.2 eth3 up + e10.3 eth3 up + e10.4 eth3 up + e10.5 eth3 up + e10.6 eth3 up + e10.7 eth3 up + e10.8 eth3 up + e10.9 eth3 up + e4.0 eth1 up + e4.1 eth1 up + e4.2 eth1 up + e4.3 eth1 up + e4.4 eth1 up + e4.5 eth1 up + e4.6 eth1 up + e4.7 eth1 up + e4.8 eth1 up + e4.9 eth1 up + + Use /sys/module/aoe/parameters/aoe_iflist (or better, the driver + option discussed below) instead of /dev/etherd/interfaces to limit + AoE traffic to the network interfaces in the given + whitespace-separated list. Unlike the old character device, the + sysfs entry can be read from as well as written to. + + It's helpful to trigger discovery after setting the list of allowed + interfaces. The aoetools package provides an aoe-discover script + for this purpose. You can also directly use the + /dev/etherd/discover special file described above. + +Driver Options +============== + + There is a boot option for the built-in aoe driver and a + corresponding module parameter, aoe_iflist. Without this option, + all network interfaces may be used for ATA over Ethernet. Here is a + usage example for the module parameter:: + + modprobe aoe_iflist="eth1 eth3" + + The aoe_deadsecs module parameter determines the maximum number of + seconds that the driver will wait for an AoE device to provide a + response to an AoE command. After aoe_deadsecs seconds have + elapsed, the AoE device will be marked as "down". A value of zero + is supported for testing purposes and makes the aoe driver keep + trying AoE commands forever. + + The aoe_maxout module parameter has a default of 128. This is the + maximum number of unresponded packets that will be sent to an AoE + target at one time. + + The aoe_dyndevs module parameter defaults to 1, meaning that the + driver will assign a block device minor number to a discovered AoE + target based on the order of its discovery. With dynamic minor + device numbers in use, a greater range of AoE shelf and slot + addresses can be supported. Users with udev will never have to + think about minor numbers. Using aoe_dyndevs=0 allows device nodes + to be pre-created using a static minor-number scheme with the + aoe-mkshelf script in the aoetools. |
