+================
+ADIS16475 driver
+================
+
+This driver supports Analog Device's IMUs on SPI bus.
+
+1. Supported devices
+====================
+
+* `ADIS16465 <https://www.analog.com/ADIS16465>`_
+* `ADIS16467 <https://www.analog.com/ADIS16467>`_
+* `ADIS16470 <https://www.analog.com/ADIS16470>`_
+* `ADIS16475 <https://www.analog.com/ADIS16475>`_
+* `ADIS16477 <https://www.analog.com/ADIS16477>`_
+* `ADIS16500 <https://www.analog.com/ADIS16500>`_
+* `ADIS16505 <https://www.analog.com/ADIS16505>`_
+* `ADIS16507 <https://www.analog.com/ADIS16507>`_
+
+Each supported device is a precision, miniature microelectromechanical system
+(MEMS) inertial measurement unit (IMU) that includes a triaxial gyroscope and a
+triaxial accelerometer. Each inertial sensor in the IMU device combines with
+signal conditioning that optimizes dynamic performance. The factory calibration
+characterizes each sensor for sensitivity, bias, alignment, linear acceleration
+(gyroscope bias), and point of percussion (accelerometer location). As a result,
+each sensor has dynamic compensation formulas that provide accurate sensor
+measurements over a broad set of conditions.
+
+2. Device attributes
+====================
+
+Accelerometer, gyroscope measurements are always provided. Furthermore, the
+driver offers the capability to retrieve the delta angle and the delta velocity
+measurements computed by the device.
+
+The delta angle measurements represent a calculation of angular displacement
+between each sample update, while the delta velocity measurements represent a
+calculation of linear velocity change between each sample update.
+
+Finally, temperature data are provided which show a coarse measurement of
+the temperature inside of the IMU device. This data is most useful for
+monitoring relative changes in the thermal environment.
+
+The signal chain of each inertial sensor (accelerometers and gyroscopes)
+includes the application of unique correction formulas, which are derived from
+extensive characterization of bias, sensitivity, alignment, response to linear
+acceleration (gyroscopes), and point of percussion (accelerometer location)
+over a temperature range of −40°C to +85°C, for each ADIS device. These
+correction formulas are not accessible, but users do have the opportunity to
+adjust the bias for each sensor individually through the calibbias attribute.
+
+Each IIO device, has a device folder under ``/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX``,
+where X is the IIO index of the device. Under these folders reside a set of
+device files, depending on the characteristics and features of the hardware
+device in questions. These files are consistently generalized and documented in
+the IIO ABI documentation.
+
+The following tables show the adis16475 related device files, found in the
+specific device folder path ``/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX``.

+Channels processed values
+-------------------------
+
+A channel value can be read from its _raw attribute. The value returned is the
+raw value as reported by the devices. To get the processed value of the channel,
+apply the following formula:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ processed value = (_raw + _offset) * _scale
+
+Where _offset and _scale are device attributes. If no _offset attribute is
+present, simply assume its value is 0.
+
+The adis16475 driver offers data for 5 types of channels, the table below shows
+the measurement units for the processed value, which are defined by the IIO
+framework:
+
++-------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+| Channel type | Measurement unit |
++-------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+| Acceleration on X, Y, and Z axis | Meters per Second squared |
++-------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+| Angular velocity on X, Y and Z axis | Radians per second |
++-------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+| Delta velocity on X. Y, and Z axis | Meters per Second |
++-------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+| Delta angle on X, Y, and Z axis | Radians |
++-------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+| Temperature | Millidegrees Celsius |
++-------------------------------------+---------------------------+

+=================
+
+This driver supports IIO buffers.
+
+All devices support retrieving the raw acceleration, gyroscope and temperature
+measurements using buffers.

+
+4. IIO Interfacing Tools
+========================
+
+Linux Kernel Tools
+------------------
+
+Linux Kernel provides some userspace tools that can be used to retrieve data
+from IIO sysfs:
+
+* lsiio: example application that provides a list of IIO devices and triggers
+* iio_event_monitor: example application that reads events from an IIO device
+ and prints them
+* iio_generic_buffer: example application that reads data from buffer
+* iio_utils: set of APIs, typically used to access sysfs files.
+
+LibIIO
+------
+
+LibIIO is a C/C++ library that provides generic access to IIO devices. The
+library abstracts the low-level details of the hardware, and provides a simple
+yet complete programming interface that can be used for advanced projects.
+
+For more information about LibIIO, please see:

+
+=============================
+Industrial IIO device buffers
+=============================
+
+1. Overview
+===========
+
+The Industrial I/O core offers a way for continuous data capture based on a
+trigger source. Multiple data channels can be read at once from
+``/dev/iio:deviceX`` character device node, thus reducing the CPU load.
+
+Devices with buffer support feature an additional sub-directory in the
+``/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/`` directory hierarchy, called bufferY, where
+Y defaults to 0, for devices with a single buffer.
+
+2. Buffer attributes
+====================
+
+An IIO buffer has an associated attributes directory under
+``/sys/bus/iio/iio:deviceX/bufferY/``. The attributes are described below.
+
+``length``
+----------
+
+Read / Write attribute which states the total number of data samples (capacity)
+that can be stored by the buffer.
+
+``enable``
+----------
+
+Read / Write attribute which starts / stops the buffer capture. This file should
+be written last, after length and selection of scan elements. Writing a non-zero
+value may result in an error, such as EINVAL, if, for example, an unsupported
+combination of channels is given.
+
+``watermark``
+-------------
+
+Read / Write positive integer attribute specifying the maximum number of scan
+elements to wait for.
+
+Poll will block until the watermark is reached.
+
+Blocking read will wait until the minimum between the requested read amount or
+the low watermark is available.
+
+Non-blocking read will retrieve the available samples from the buffer even if
+there are less samples than the watermark level. This allows the application to
+block on poll with a timeout and read the available samples after the timeout
+expires and thus have a maximum delay guarantee.
+
+Data available
+--------------
+
+Read-only attribute indicating the bytes of data available in the buffer. In the
+case of an output buffer, this indicates the amount of empty space available to
+write data to. In the case of an input buffer, this indicates the amount of data
+available for reading.
+
+Scan elements
+-------------
+
+The meta information associated with a channel data placed in a buffer is called
+a scan element. The scan elements attributes are presented below.
+
+**_en**
+
+Read / Write attribute used for enabling a channel. If and only if its value
+is non-zero, then a triggered capture will contain data samples for this
+channel.
+
+**_index**
+
+Read-only unsigned integer attribute specifying the position of the channel in
+the buffer. Note these are not dependent on what is enabled and may not be
+contiguous. Thus for userspace to establish the full layout these must be used
+in conjunction with all _en attributes to establish which channels are present,
+and the relevant _type attributes to establish the data storage format.
+
+**_type**
+
+Read-only attribute containing the description of the scan element data storage
+within the buffer and hence the form in which it is read from userspace. Format
+is [be|le]:[s|u]bits/storagebits[Xrepeat][>>shift], where:
+
+- **be** or **le** specifies big or little-endian.
+- **s** or **u** specifies if signed (2's complement) or unsigned.
+- **bits** is the number of valid data bits.
+- **storagebits** is the number of bits (after padding) that it occupies in the
+ buffer.
+- **repeat** specifies the number of bits/storagebits repetitions. When the
+ repeat element is 0 or 1, then the repeat value is omitted.
+- **shift** if specified, is the shift that needs to be applied prior to
+ masking out unused bits.
+
+For example, a driver for a 3-axis accelerometer with 12-bit resolution where
+data is stored in two 8-bit registers is as follows::
+
+ 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
+ +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
+ |D3 |D2 |D1 |D0 | X | X | X | X | (LOW byte, address 0x06)
+ +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
+
+ 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
+ +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
+ |D11|D10|D9 |D8 |D7 |D6 |D5 |D4 | (HIGH byte, address 0x07)
+ +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
+
+will have the following scan element type for each axis:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0/buffer0/in_accel_y_type
+ le:s12/16>>4
+
+A userspace application will interpret data samples read from the buffer as
+two-byte little-endian signed data, that needs a 4 bits right shift before
+masking out the 12 valid bits of data.
+
+It is also worth mentioning that the data in the buffer will be naturally
+aligned, so the userspace application has to handle the buffers accordingly.
+
+Take for example, a driver with four channels with the following description:
+- channel0: index: 0, type: be:u16/16>>0
+- channel1: index: 1, type: be:u32/32>>0
+- channel2: index: 2, type: be:u32/32>>0
+- channel3: index: 3, type: be:u64/64>>0
+
+If all channels are enabled, the data will be aligned in the buffer as follows::
+
+ 0-1 2 3 4-7 8-11 12 13 14 15 16-23 -> buffer byte number
+ +-----+---+---+-----+-----+---+---+---+---+-----+
+ |CHN_0|PAD|PAD|CHN_1|CHN_2|PAD|PAD|PAD|PAD|CHN_3| -> buffer content
+ +-----+---+---+-----+-----+---+---+---+---+-----+
+
+If only channel0 and channel3 are enabled, the data will be aligned in the
+buffer as follows::
+
+ 0-1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8-15 -> buffer byte number
+ +-----+---+---+---+---+---+---+-----+
+ |CHN_0|PAD|PAD|PAD|PAD|PAD|PAD|CHN_3| -> buffer content
+ +-----+---+---+---+---+---+---+-----+
+
+Typically the buffered data is found in raw format (unscaled with no offset
+applied), however there are corner cases in which the buffered data may be found
+in a processed form. Please note that these corner cases are not addressed by
+this documentation.
+
+Please see ``Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio`` for a complete
+description of the attributes.
