[PATCH 1/2] iio: Add iio_read_channel_label to inkern API

[Sean Anderson]

It can be convenient for other in-kernel drivers to reuse IIO channel
labels. Export the iio_read_channel_label function to allow this. The
signature is different depending on where we are calling it from, so
the meat is moved to do_iio_read_channel_label.

Seems like a useful addition to me. I'm not 100% what path this will
take so if it goes via HWMON.

Acked-by: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com>

It may be messy and need an immutable branch however. I haven't
checked for churn in this code yet.

[PATCH 2/2] hwmon: iio: Add labels from IIO channels

[Sean Anderson]

Add labels from IIO channels to our channels. This allows userspace to
display more meaningful names instead of "in0" or "temp5".

This can return -EINVAL if there is no label. Since the label attribute
is created unconditionally, every affected system would end up with
lots of error messages when running the "sensors" command.
This is not acceptable.

The sensors command gracefully handles this. There are no errors, and the label is unused.

For example, without IIO labels I get:

$ sensors hwmon_ams_ps-isa-0000
hwmon_ams_ps-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
in1:         825.00 mV 
in2:         826.00 mV 
in3:           1.81 V  
in4:           1.18 V  
in5:           1.80 V  
in6:           1.80 V  
in7:           3.27 V  
in8:           1.81 V  
in9:         825.00 mV 
in10:          1.81 V  
in11:          1.80 V  
temp1:        +79.8 C  
temp2:        +80.9 C  

and with labels I get

I also was concerned about the same thing, but lm-sensors handles things
gracefully, allowing us to simplify the implementation.

You are correct, the sensors code ignores access errors on label attributes.
Still, I am not even going there. If there is no label, don't create
the attribute, period. The ABI says

     Should only be created if the driver has hints about what
     this voltage channel is being used for, and user-space
     doesn't. In all other cases, the label is provided by
     user-space.

It should be obvious that this doesn't mean that you can create random
attributes and then just return an error if it isn't actually supported.
