From e24328974a88aa8541e94e8bb8dfa2ade1b3c45d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Donggeun Yoo Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2026 00:21:26 +0900 Subject: iio: proximity: vl53l0x-i2c: claim direct mode for raw reads 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 aim is to fill the gap between the somewhat similar hwmon and +:doc:`input <../input>` subsystems. Hwmon is directed at low sample rate +sensors used to monitor and control the system itself, like fan speed control +or temperature measurement. :doc:`Input <../input>` is, as its name suggests, +focused on human interaction input devices (keyboard, mouse, touchscreen). +In some cases there is considerable overlap between these and IIO. + +Devices that fall into this category include: + +* analog to digital converters (ADCs) +* accelerometers +* capacitance to digital converters (CDCs) +* digital to analog converters (DACs) +* gyroscopes +* inertial measurement units (IMUs) +* color and light sensors +* magnetometers +* pressure sensors +* proximity sensors +* temperature sensors + +Usually these sensors are connected via :doc:`SPI <../spi>` or +:doc:`I2C <../i2c>`. A common use case of the sensors devices is to have +combined functionality (e.g. light plus proximity sensor). -- cgit v1.3.1
