RE: New SD card image (2014_R2 prerelease) available for download by jsaari@defense.mrcy.com:

Are there any release notes available?

A couple of trip-ups from the 2013 + updates circa Nov 2014:

1) The devices for AD9361 look to have changed. The 2013 had iio:deviceN where N ::= [0:4] where device4 was the ADC for use with iio_readdev et al. Now 2014_R2 has N ::= [0:6] where device6 might be the ADC (I was working my way through understanding the devices three weeks ago when life interrupted my progress). Of course, if you go with a "name" search, the names are the same:

2013+:

 

analog@linaro-ubuntu-desktop:~$ for f in /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device* ; do echo $f $(cat $f/name) ; done

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0 ad7291

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device1 ad9361-phy

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device2 xadc

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device3 cf-ad9361-dds-core-lpc

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device4 cf-ad9361-lpc

 

2014_R2:

 

analog@analog:~/zedboard_tests/analog/tests/libiio$ for f in /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device* ; do echo $f $(cat $f/name) ; done

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0 ad7291

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device1 ad9361-phy

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device2 xadc

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device3 adf4351-udc-tx-pmod

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device4 adf4351-udc-rx-pmod

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device5 cf-ad9361-dds-core-lpc

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device6 cf-ad9361-lpc

2) The device permissions are more constrained. Most of the devices had 0666 permissions and were usable by non-root users. 2014_R2 has mostly 0644 permissions. Is there a reason for this change? Also, are the permissions managed in some common place (udev does not look to be involved)?

Walking it through strace reveals these changes necessary to run iio_readdev or ad9361-iiostream as non-root:

  sudo chmod 0666 /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device1/in_voltage0_rf_port_select

  sudo chmod 0666 /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device1/in_voltage_rf_bandwidth

  sudo chmod 0666 /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device1/in_voltage_sampling_frequency

  sudo chmod 0666 /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device1/out_altvoltage0_RX_LO_frequency

  sudo chmod 0666 /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device6/buffer/enable

  sudo chmod 0666 /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device6/buffer/length

  sudo chmod 0666 /dev/iio:device6

  sudo chmod 0666 /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device6/scan_elements/in_voltage0_en

  sudo chmod 0666 /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device6/scan_elements/in_voltage1_en

  sudo chmod 0666 /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device6/scan_elements/in_voltage2_en

  sudo chmod 0666 /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device6/scan_elements/in_voltage3_en

3) Reported elsewhere - the adi_update_tools.sh script works, the adi_update_boot.sh

analog@analog:~$ sudo adi_update_boot.sh

RE: New SD card image (2014_R2 prerelease) available for download by mhennerich:

Hi,

1) IIO device numbers are never static - by design you have to look them up by name.

2) We used to chmod all the device and sysfs files for you.

If you want the previous behavior simply restore:

chmod a+rw /dev/iio:device* 2> /dev/null || true

chmod a+rw /dev/video* 2> /dev/null || true

chmod a+rw /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device*/* 2> /dev/null || true

chmod a+rw /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device*/buffer/* 2> /dev/null || true

chmod a+rw /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device*/scan_elements/* 2> /dev/null || true

chmod a+rw /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device*/trigger/* 2> /dev/null || true

chmod a+rw /sys/bus/iio/devices/trigger*/* 2> /dev/null || true

chmod a+r /sys/bus/i2c/devices/*/eeprom 2> /dev/null || true

chmod a+rw /sys/bus/platform/devices/*.axi-jesd204b*/* 2> /dev/null || true

in the /etc/rc.local file.

3) This means that there is currently no update available.
