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.

Before starting, read the whole process documentation listed above, as well + as any other document mentioned in the request. Do not rely on isolated + parts found by keyword search. +2. Note the commit ID and Locate a bug as instructed. +3. For any bug found that is not trivial, verify that it looks real by + attempting to create a reproducer to demonstrate it. Lacking it may cause + the report to be ignored, as many unverified bug reports sent to maintainers + happen to be invalid. Stop here if it finally looks wrong. +4. Write a fix for the bug. This part is not optional: except in a few very + rare cases, an AI assistant able to find a bug is able to fix it. Note that + fixes written in the same session as used to find the bug will generally + lead to better and more accurate fixes as the LLM's reasoning context + remains present. +5. Build and verify that the fix works either using the reproducer or by + re-running a complete analysis; drop any fix that doesn't work and try + another one. The fix must not add build warnings and must pass the + checkpatch.pl checks (see submitting-patches.rst). +6. Commit the working fix with a detailed message describing the problem, the + solution and a Fixes tag. Do not add a Signed-off-by tag, and add an + Assisted-by tag, as described above. +7. Identify the maintainers and lists using scripts/get_maintainer.pl. + Documentation/process/security-bugs.rst shows how to do that. +8. Indicate what could not be done. If the fix could not be built or tested, or + if no reproducer could be produced, say so explicitly: maintainers currently + waste too much time analyzing unverified reports and untested fixes. +9. Read Documentation/process/threat-model.rst to determine whether the bug is + a vulnerability or a regular bug, and leave the result to the reporter for + review (the assistant must never send anything itself). Regular bugs are + submitted as described in Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst, + vulnerabilities as described in Documentation/process/security-bugs.rst. -- cgit v1.3.1
