As some firmware does not notify on illuminance changes, add a
trigger to be able to query light via software (sysfs-trigger or
hrtrigger).
Add a hardware trigger set as the default trigger to maintain backward
compatibility.
Check iio_info reports the sensor as buffer capable:
iio:device0: acpi-als (buffer capable)
To test, check we can get data on demand on an Intel based chromebook:
IIO_DEV="iio:device0"
echo 1 > iio_sysfs_trigger/add_trigger
cat trigger2/name > ${IIO_DEV}/trigger/current_trigger
for i in ${IIO_DEV}/scan_elements/*_en ${IIO_DEV}/buffer/enable ; do
echo 1 > $i
done
od -x /dev/${IIO_DEV} &
echo 1 > trigger2/trigger_now

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
