It's specific to both the device and the count so make that clear. Also give a description of where it comes from.

How is this decided? (actually the IIO docs are weak on this as well I think - I should fix that as we frequently end up in a mess over this). > + > +What: /sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/signalY > +KernelVersion: 4.16 > +Contact: linux-iio@vger.kernel.org > +Description: > + Signal data of Signal Y.

An alternative I would look into would be to have countY_synapses directory containing a number of files to indicate this. Signal name looks redundant to me though as it can be established easily from the ID (I think). So I would have countY_synapses/synapse_signalX_action and the action in there. Not totally sure how this would work out in reality but it would at least mean software only had to read the one it cared about rather than parse a table. > diff --git a/MAINTAINERS b/MAINTAINERS > index 07dd7b933bfa..38da1bc615b3 100644 > --- a/MAINTAINERS > +++ b/MAINTAINERS > @@ -3665,6 +3665,7 @@ COUNTER INTERFACE > M: William Breathitt Gray <vilhelm.gray@gmail.com> > L: linux-iio@vger.kernel.org > S: Maintained > +F: Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-counter-* > F: drivers/iio/counter/ > F: include/linux/iio/counter.h > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-iio" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
