Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] iio: adc: hx711: refactor to per-chip hx711_chip_info structure
Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2026 23:29:09 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260422175910.1258579-3-piyushpatle228@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260422175910.1258579-1-piyushpatle228@gmail.com>
Introduce hx711_chip_info to hold per-variant static configuration:
device name, IIO channel spec, channel count, and iio_info pointer.
Store a chip_info pointer in hx711_data and populate indio_dev fields
from it at probe instead of hardcoding them.
Pass trailing pulse count directly to hx711_read() instead of
computing it inside the function, and change hx711_reset_read() to
take a const struct iio_chan_spec * instead of an integer channel
index so callers can pass the full channel descriptor.
Use device_get_match_data() to look up the chip_info from the
of_device_id table. No functional change for existing HX711 users.

Changes in v3:
- New patch split out from the HX710B support patch.
- Keep this as a standalone refactor for the existing HX711 path.
- Use unsigned int for the channel count and trailing pulse count.
- Use a loop-local unsigned int for the trailing pulse loop.
- Add direct includes for ARRAY_SIZE and basic types.
- Align Kconfig, file header, and module description wording with the
"HX711 and compatible ADCs" phrasing.
Changes in v2:
- N/A; this standalone refactor patch is new in v3.
