Linux mainline fork with MSM8998 patches | https://mainline.space | Currently supported devices:
OnePlus 5/5T, Xiaomi Mi 6, F(x)tec Pro¹ (2019 QX1000 model) & Sony Xperia XZ Premium (UNTESTED!)
Before activating a buffer make sure that at least one channel is enabled.
Activating a buffer with 0 channels enabled doesn't make too much sense and
disallowing this case makes sure that individual driver don't have to add
special case code to handle it.
Currently, without this patch enabling a buffer is possible and no error is
produced. With this patch -EINVAL is returned.
An example of execution with this patch and some instrumented print-code:
root@analog:~# cd /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device3/buffer
root@analog:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device3/buffer# echo 1 > enable
0: iio_verify_update 748 indio_dev->masklength 2 *insert_buffer->scan_mask 00000000
1: iio_verify_update 753
2:__iio_update_buffers 1115 ret -22
3: iio_buffer_store_enable 1241 ret -22
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
1, 2 & 3 are exit-error paths. 0 the first print in iio_verify_update()
rergardless of error path.
Without this patch (and same instrumented print-code):
root@analog:~# cd /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device3/buffer
root@analog:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device3/buffer# echo 1 > enable
0: iio_verify_update 748 indio_dev->masklength 2 *insert_buffer->scan_mask 00000000
root@analog:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device3/buffer#
Buffer is enabled with no error.
Note from Jonathan: Probably not suitable for automatic application to stable.
This has been there from the very start. It tidies up an odd corner
case but won't effect any 'real' users.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
