Hi Brian.
This attribute is a general IIO one rather than a light specific one so is
already documented in sysfs-bus-iio.
Now it is supposed to be an offset rather than a gain. The current docs say:
"Hardware applied calibration offset. (assumed to fix production
inaccuracies). If shared across all channels, <type>_calibbias
is used."
I do note that the illuminance variant isn't actually listed and would be
happy to have a patch adding it alongside the gyro and accel ones already there.
My first issue here is that it supposed to be an offset not a gain. Secondly that
description could clearly do with amending to make it clear that this can be used
for devices with complex non linear transformations to SI units which is what it
is supposed to be doing here. In cases where there is no '_raw' output we can assume
something complex may be happening, so changing this value won't result in a additive
change the output.
If we are playing with a gain, then calibscale is the parameter name that should be used
(also a core attribute definition, not a light specific one).
"Hardware applied calibration scale factor. (assumed to fix
production inaccuracies). If shared across all channels,
<type>_calibscale is used."
Note all these attributes are defined to be pseudo floating point. The chan_spec approach
to registration handles this cleanly (particularly with Michael Hennerich's additional
callbacks added last week). It's a gain, so 1 is the no change value. Sorry, but anything
that assumes 1024 is the no effect value is never going to generalize well
so is a non starter.
Sorry, I'll be happy to see a patch adding the support you want to the isl29018 driver
but it must conform to the existing abi. It looks like you may have found a discrepancy
between a driver and the spec, but I'll leave Jon to comment on that.
