Subject: Module get needed for iio_channel_get and friends
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2015 17:00:16 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <552EC350.2000506@imgtec.com> (raw)
Jonathan, Lars:
I've noticed that iio_channel_{get, get_all} don't call try_module_get
on the module associated to the indio_dev.
This means that an IIO driver can be removed while having a consumer for
any of its channels.
If each channel can have a completely different indio_dev, this means we
need to increase the refcount of the module on each indio_dev, right?
