Subject: [PATCH 2/2] iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: Decouple sensor ODR from FIFO batch data rate
Date: Thu, 9 Oct 2025 19:36:09 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251009173609.992452-3-flavra@baylibre.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251009173609.992452-1-flavra@baylibre.com>
The rate at which accelerometer or gyroscope sensor samples are fed
to the hardware FIFO (batch data rate, or BDR) does not have to
coincide with the sensor sampling frequency (output data rate, or
ODR); the only requirement is for the BDR to not be greater than
the ODR. Having a BDR lower than the ODR is useful in cases where
an application requires a high sampling rate for accurate detection
of motion events (e.g. wakeup events), but wants to read sensor
sample values from the device buffer at a lower data rate.
To support the above use case, add a sampling_frequency sysfs
attribute to the buffer directory of st_lsm6dsx IIO devices, which
controls the BDR for a given sensor independently from the "main"
sampling_frequency attribute (which controls the ODR); introduce a
new `bdr` field in struct st_lsm6dsx_sensor to keep track of the
current BDR value, and use this field instead of the `odr` field in
the code that deals with the FIFO data rate. In the sensor hub
driver, make the bdr value always mirror the odr value, since there
is no separate configuration setting to control the BDR for data
produced by the sensor hub functionality.
