[PATCH v2 0/3] iio: adc: ad9467: Support alternative backends
Posted by Tomas Melin 3 weeks, 5 days ago
To facilitate backends with different set of features, add support
for defining capabilites provided by the backend. These capabilites
typically extend beyond a single operation and are therefore not
directly linked to if a single function call is implemented or not.
Furthermore, the capabilites determine if a certain set of operations
should be attempted, or skipped by the frontend. This way
the frontend driver can work with a minimalistic set of features and
still have the device in fully functional state.
