A few of these were pretty serious, like missing arguments,
passing integers where a string was expected, and so on.
In some places, change the types used by the code rather than
just the format strings.
Move the include flags for files in the source tree from
configure.ac to Makefile.am where they belong. Also use
AM_CPPFLAGS instead of CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS to make sure the
files in the build/source tree are always picked up first.
Also, remove the include/libsigrok sub-directory from the
search path, thereby making the <libsigrok/> prefix mandatory
when building libsigrok itself. This matches the convention
already imposed on users of the library.
- Don't #include <errno.h> in files that don't actually need it.
- Don't use strerror() on error codes from functions that don't set
errno. Replace strerror() with sr_strerror() for libsigrok functions.
All those options are currently applied only to power-supplies
but they could apply as well to electronic loads, except for the
fact that electronic loads channels are called inputs and not
outputs.
Also when you think about an SMU (or any kind of 4-quadrants
power-supply), their channels can both source and sink current,
so they can be considered as input as much as output.
Those SR_CONF_* are thus renamed so that they can be used in all
those situations.
Use g_malloc0() for small allocations and assume they always
succeed. Simplify error handling in a few places accordingly.
Don't always sanity-check parameters for non-public (SR_PRIV)
functions, we require the developers to invoke them correctly.
This allows further error handling simplifications.
Set this new parameter to 0 (no timeout) at every call site. This is
consistent with previous behaviour, so cannot cause any regressions.
Waiting forever for a serial operation is clearly always wrong. Without
specific knowledge of each device and driver however, I can't choose
appropriate timeouts for each call. The maintainers of these drivers
will need to do so, and also add appropriate handling of timeouts.
When this commit is merged, a bug should be entered for each driver
that is touched by it.
This call was previously explicitly nonblocking, but has no partial write
handling. It sends a short packet so should be OK to block, most likely the
output buffer will be empty anyway.
This call was already nonblocking since the driver opens the port with the
SERIAL_NONBLOCK flag. It only reads one byte, and a zero result is handled
appropriately.
Every driver now publishes its device option config keys, i.e. the
list fetched with sr_config_list(SR_CONF_DEVICE_OPTIONS), with a
set of flags indicating which methods are implemented by the driver
for that key.
The config keys are OR'ed with any combination of SR_CONF_GET,
SR_CONF_SET and SR_CONF_LIST. These are defined as the high bits
of the uint32_t config key. Clients can OR config keys with
SR_CONF_MASK to strip out these bits. This mask will be kept up to
date if other bits are added to the capabilities list; clients MUST
therefore use SR_CONF_MASK for this.
Some keys don't have capability bits added, such as the informative
device type keys (SR_CONF_MULTIMETER, SR_CONF_OSCILLOSCOPE, ...) and
SR_CONF_CONTINUOUS.
Scan options do not have capabilities bits.
