Subject: [PATCH] iio: core: Use datasheet name as fallback for label
Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2025 20:42:09 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251027124210.788962-1-wens@kernel.org> (raw)
Some IIO drivers do not provide labels or extended names for their
channels. However they may provide datasheet names. axp20x-adc is
one such example.
Use the datasheet name as a fallback for the channel label. This mainly
benefits iio-hwmon by letting the produced hwmon sensors have more
meaningful names rather than in_voltageX.
