Sending an SR_DF_META packet at the start of every stream is not
mandatory; the frontend should ask for what it needs, and any extra
information the driver wants to send will come in due time.
Currently hw_info_get() can receive requests for entries (info_id) that
the specific driver doesn't support. That is (right now) a valid
use-case and not an error (might change later, though).
Thus, for now, don't output messages for such requests at all (certainly
not as sr_err() where they show up in e.g. sigrok-cli output per default).
In the case of USB drivers, a driver's dev_acquisition_stop() cannot
simply remove its fd sources from the session and close its devices:
a USB transfer might still be underway, and it needs to be finished
(and its memory freed) properly.
An sr_dev_inst->status value is added: SR_ST_STOPPING, which should
be set when the driver's dev_acquisition_stop() is called, and acts
as a marker for the USB event handler to wind up its operations.
In order for dev_acquisition_stop() to be able to set the sdi status,
however, it needs to be unconstified.
Merge parts of the tekpower-dmm code (the chip of the TekPower
TP4000ZC seems to be an FS9721_LP3 too) and rework parts of the functions.
Adapt the tekpower-dmm and uni-t-dmm code accordingly.
So far, it seems we can make this work with just hw_init() needing to
be subdriver-specific (it will point 'di' to the respective per-subdriver
entry), the rest of the API functions can then use a strcmp() on di->name to
learn which subdriver they belong to.
The 'uni-t-dmm' driver/directory will not appear as a "driver" to
frontends anymore, it's just an internal thing.
The frontends will see a uni-t-ut61d and voltcraft-vc820 driver now,
with the correct names and parsers etc. attached to them.
This is not fully finished yet, but it's a start (and works mostly):
$ sigrok-cli -D
The following devices were found:
UNI-T UT61D with 1 probe: P1
Voltcraft VC-820 with 1 probe: P1
$ sigrok-cli --driver voltcraft-vc820 -D
The following devices were found:
Voltcraft VC-820 with 1 probe: P1
$ sigrok-cli --driver uni-t-ut61d -D
The following devices were found:
UNI-T UT61D with 1 probe: P1
# Now attaching a UNI-T UT61D device via USB.
$ sigrok-cli --driver uni-t-ut61d --samples 3 -O analog
P1: -0.017800 V DC
P1: -0.017600 V DC
P1: -0.017700 V DC
# Now attaching a Voltcraft VC-820 device via USB instead.
$ sigrok-cli --driver voltcraft-vc820 --samples 3 -O analog
P1: -0.319200 V DC
