I've seen the following output from sigrok-cli:
CH1: 478.720 mV
CH1: -514 mV
CH1: -0 V
I added some debug, and it seems like the digits value isn't reset
to the actual value after calling sr_analog_si_prefix_friendly():
using 6 digits
value2 0.478720 digits 6
value2 -0.513536 digits 3
value2 -0.487424 digits 0
This commit fixes this by resetting the value to the actual value before.

devc->step is not reset on acquistion start, so acquisition
starts with a different value every time. Thats annoying when
using the demo driver to debug sigrok, so lets make sure that
it's reset to 0.

It appears that the symmetry changes of setting CC and CFLAGS correctly
for C code compilation in commit 104f02f broke things for people using
some other version of setuptools which uses those vars instead of
CXX and CXXFLAGS when compiling C++ code. In order to make this work
everywhere, set _both_ sets of variables as required for C++ compilation.
No C code is compiled by the python binding module anyway.
When using SCPI over serial (over USB), we want the header without waiting
for the terminating newline, as otherwise the transfer may time out.
sr_scpi_get_data() will block until the message is complete.
Lowlevel access functions should not alter the data. sr_scpi_get_string(),
which is called by most highlevel access functions, strips newlines
in a central place, and is only fed with data which contains newlines
as a final terminator.
IEEE 488.2 definite length blocks may contain arbitrary data, thus the
payload up to the provided length should be passed unaltered.
Track if the last received character is a newline, which can be used
by sr_scpi_get_string() and its callers to determine if the response
is complete.
g_get_monotonic_time() returns current time in microseconds, use the same
granularity for storing the read timeout.
There is also no need to check the timeout if data has just been read.
sr_period_string takes the frequency as its argument, i.e. the reciprocal
of the timebase. Obviously this will not work for frequencies less than
1Hz / timebases greater than 1 second, but at least is correct for all
other available timebases.

The output was wrong for all frequencies but 1 Hz, 1 kHz, 1 MHz and 1 GHz.
With this changes, the output may still be off due to rounding, but will
be correct as to the shown accuracy.
When nothing was received in a read attempt, we need not adjust the
buffered data's read position nor the glib string object's size. Skip
any processing for empty input, just keep checking for timeouts.
Routine sr_scpi_get_data() checks for free space in the receive buffer,
and resizes the buffer when free space drops below a threshold. The
previous logic assumed that the resize and the read logic would interact
in some specific way to achieve the desired operation.
Adjust the buffer resize such that more free space is pre-allocated, yet
the payload size of the buffer is not affected. This eliminates the
dependency of the optional resize logic from subsequent activity for
reception of data that is non-optional.
Add comments while we are here, outline the steps taken in the
sr_scpi_get_data() routine.
Phrase the logic which checks the use of analog channels and digital
pods in more generic terms. Place a comment about the contraints' being
potentially dependent on the specific HMO model. This implementation
should lend itself better to future adjustment (HMO1002?).
An internal libsigrok implementation detail prevents partial submission
of logic data for different channel groups in multiple calls. Instead
one logic packet needs to be sent in a single call, which combines data
for all channels.
Introduce a logic data storage which folds samples from several channel
groups that were received at different points in time into a combined
memory layout of larger unitsize. Stick with the former shortcut of
passing on the input bytes directly when only the first digital pod is
used during acquisition.
This change correctly maps data from the second pod to channels D8-D15.
The previous implementation only added one of the digital channels to
the list of enabled channels that are involved in the acquisition (the
first one that was found). This means that when the set of used digital
channels spans more than one pod/group, the second pod will never be
read from.
Make sure to enable one digital channel per pod/group, such that
acquisition will retrieve data from all involved input sources.
Add comments while we are here. Mention how the different setup, check,
start, and receive routines which are spread across several files do
interact to achieve acquisition.
The previous implementation used to put FRAME_BEGIN and FRAME_END
markers around each received chunk of samples, while those chunks
correspond to a single channel (analog) or a group of eight channels
(digital) each. In other words, the hameg-hmo driver had provided a
multiple of the requested frames, and those frames were incomplete.
Make sure to only send FRAME_BEGIN before the first channel's data,
and FRAME_END after the last channel's data of a frame. Thus make
sigrok frames exactly match the scope's frames.
Add some comments on the frame marker and the acquisition stop logic
while we are here.
Configure the scope to the host's native endianess before downloading
acquisition data from analog channels. This unbreaks operation on those
models which default to a representation which differs from the host.
Undo the change which skips management activities when no data was
received. This change breaks the current implementation, and needs to
get deferred until a delicate interaction between the resize and the
read logic has been eliminated.
Replace a C library strcspn(3) call with the more portable glib
g_strstr_len(3) routine. This is possible since a single separator
is searched for, no actual "set of characters" is involved.
As a byproduct, this eliminates a "late" reference to 'cnt' at the
bottom of the routine, after the value was assigned in a rather distant
location at the top of the routine. The cost of strlen() should be
acceptable for a buffer with a single digit total length.
Replace C language string operations with their glib incarnations for
improved portability. Prefer a common sigrok float conversion routine
over a DIY implementation.
The specific packet layout puts constraints on the parse logic (case
sensitive comparison, order of comparison). Fix a comment that made no
sense before, and better reflect that there are two constraints.
Slightly rephrase the SCPI code which parses the responses that carry
(binary) data blocks. Be explicit about NUL termination when parsing the
leading length spec in the response, obsoleting the array initializer.
Add lots of comments and group source code lines to better reflect
what's happening from the protocol's perspective.
Fix the returned error code in the path which reads responses of
excessive length in chunks. The previous implementation detected errors
but always returned code 0 (success).
When nothing was received in a read attempt, we need not adjust the
buffered data's read position nor the glib string object's size. Skip
any processing for empty input, just keep checking for timeouts.
Drop an initial assignment to a variable which never takes effect.
Add braces around the body of a more complex if block. Separate routines
from each other by exactly one empty line.
When the channel state is retrieved, query the pre-set byteorder for
SCPI data blocks as well. When samples get retrieved during capture,
support float representations in either big or little endian format.
This commit unbreaks devices which operate in BE format by default
(tested with HMO2524). It keeps working with LE format as before. For
devices which don't support the byteorder query or return unknown
responses, LE format is assumed for backwards compatibility. The
device's byteorder is only queried and never set. This makes the
commit least intrusive.
A comment mentioned that the models HMO2524 and above support 16 digital
channels (and thus have two pods for the probes). Move those models to a
section that declares the respective features, including trigger support
on the upper digital channels.
Model detection and reflection of supported channels was tested on HMO2524.
Commit db81fbb582 made sure to release a potentially previously
allocated list of enabled channels before (re-)building the list in the
current invocation of acquisition start.
This commit frees the memory in the error path near the failed creation
already, which reduces the period of time where unused resources are
held, and eliminates a memory leak when acquisition is not stopped after
failed start.
Both approaches can coexist. Freeing an empty list is perfectly fine.
