Subject: [PATCH] iio: gyro: mpu3050: fix sign of raw angular velocity readings
Date: Sun, 2 Aug 2026 13:55:40 +0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260802065540.8120-1-congnt264@gmail.com> (raw)
The MPU-3050 gyroscope output registers hold 16-bit two's complement
values; the angular velocity channels are declared with .sign = 's'.
When mpu3050_read_raw() handles IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW it reads the register
via a big-endian regmap_bulk_read() and assigns it with:
*val = be16_to_cpu(raw_val);
be16_to_cpu() yields an unsigned 16-bit quantity, so negative rates
(bit 15 set) are reported to userspace as large positive integers
(e.g. -1 becomes 65535) instead of the correct negative value.
Cast to s16 before the assignment, matching the temperature channel a
few lines above which already handles the sign correctly.
