98 * Interaction with suspend mode
99 *
100 * Unless otherwise noted, an enabled sensor shall not prevent the
101 * SoC to go into suspend mode. It is the responsibility of applications
102 * to keep a partial wake-lock should they wish to receive sensor
103 * events while the screen is off. While in suspend mode, and unless
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -0700104 * otherwise noted (batch mode, sensor particularities, ...), enabled sensors'
105 * events are lost.
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -0800106 *
107 * Note that conceptually, the sensor itself is not de-activated while in
108 * suspend mode -- it's just that the data it returns are lost. As soon as
109 * the SoC gets out of suspend mode, operations resume as usual. Of course,
110 * in practice sensors shall be disabled while in suspend mode to
111 * save power, unless batch mode is active, in which case they must
112 * continue fill their internal FIFO (see the documentation of batch() to
113 * learn how suspend interacts with batch mode).
114 *
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -0700115 * In batch mode, and only when the flag SENSORS_BATCH_WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL is
Mathias Agopian1144bea2013-01-29 15:52:10 -0800116 * set and supported, the specified sensor must be able to wake-up the SoC and
117 * be able to buffer at least 10 seconds worth of the requested sensor events.
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -0800118 *
119 * There are notable exceptions to this behavior, which are sensor-dependent
120 * (see sensor types definitions below)
121 *
122 *
123 * The sensor type documentation below specifies the wake-up behavior of
124 * each sensor:
125 * wake-up: yes this sensor must wake-up the SoC to deliver events
126 * wake-up: no this sensor shall not wake-up the SoC, events are dropped

131 * Sensor type
132 *
133 * Each sensor has a type which defines what this sensor measures and how
134 * measures are reported. All types are defined below.

136
137/*
138 * Sensor fusion and virtual sensors
139 *
140 * Many sensor types are or can be implemented as virtual sensors from
141 * physical sensors on the device. For instance the rotation vector sensor,
Mathias Agopian2f276f52013-01-28 17:54:41 -0800142 * orientation sensor, step-detector, step-counter, etc...
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -0800143 *
144 * From the point of view of this API these virtual sensors MUST appear as
145 * real, individual sensors. It is the responsibility of the driver and HAL
146 * to make sure this is the case.
147 *
148 * In particular, all sensors must be able to function concurrently.
149 * For example, if defining both an accelerometer and a step counter,
150 * then both must be able to work concurrently.
151 */
152
153/*
154 * Trigger modes
155 *
156 * Sensors can report events in different ways called trigger modes,
157 * each sensor type has one and only one trigger mode associated to it.
158 * Currently there are four trigger modes defined:
159 *
160 * continuous: events are reported at a constant rate defined by setDelay().
161 * eg: accelerometers, gyroscopes.
162 * on-change: events are reported only if the sensor's value has changed.
163 * setDelay() is used to set a lower limit to the reporting
164 * period (minimum time between two events).
165 * The HAL must return an event immediately when an on-change
166 * sensor is activated.
167 * eg: proximity, light sensors
Etienne Le Grandca858142013-02-26 19:17:20 -0800168 * one-shot: upon detection of an event, the sensor deactivates itself and
169 * then sends a single event. Order matters to avoid race
170 * conditions. No other event is sent until the sensor get
171 * reactivated. setDelay() is ignored.
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -0800172 * eg: significant motion sensor
173 * special: see details in the sensor type specification below

Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -0700993 * BATCH MODE:
994 * -----------
995 * In non-batch mode, all sensor events must be reported as soon as they
996 * are detected. For example, an accelerometer activated at 50Hz will
997 * trigger interrupts 50 times per second.
998 * While in batch mode, sensor events do not need to be reported as soon
999 * as they are detected. They can be temporarily stored in batches and
1000 * reported in batches, as long as no event is delayed by more than
1001 * "timeout" nanoseconds. That is, all events since the previous batch
1002 * are recorded and returned all at once. This allows to reduce the amount
1003 * of interrupts sent to the SoC, and allow the SoC to switch to a lower
1004 * power state (Idle) while the sensor is capturing and batching data.
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001005 *
1006 * setDelay() is not affected and it behaves as usual.
1007 *
1008 * Each event has a timestamp associated with it, the timestamp
1009 * must be accurate and correspond to the time at which the event
1010 * physically happened.
1011 *
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001012 * Batching does not modify the behavior of poll(): batches from different
1013 * sensors can be interleaved and split. As usual, all events from the same
1014 * sensor are time-ordered.
1015 *
1016 * BEHAVIOUR OUTSIDE OF SUSPEND MODE:
1017 * ----------------------------------
1018 *
1019 * When the SoC is awake (not in suspend mode), events must be reported in
1020 * batches at least every "timeout". No event shall be dropped or lost.
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001021 * If internal h/w FIFOs fill-up before the timeout, then events are
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001022 * reported at that point to ensure no event is lost.
Mathias Agopian1144bea2013-01-29 15:52:10 -08001023 *
1024 *
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001025 * NORMAL BEHAVIOR IN SUSPEND MODE:
1026 * ---------------------------------
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001027 *
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001028 * By default, batch mode doesn't significantly change the interaction with
1029 * suspend mode. That is, sensors must continue to allow the SoC to
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001030 * go into suspend mode and sensors must stay active to fill their
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001031 * internal FIFO. In this mode, when the FIFO fills up, it shall wrap
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001032 * around (basically behave like a circular buffer, overwriting events).
1033 * As soon as the SoC comes out of suspend mode, a batch is produced with
1034 * as much as the recent history as possible, and batch operation
1035 * resumes as usual.
1036 *
1037 * The behavior described above allows applications to record the recent
1038 * history of a set of sensor while keeping the SoC into suspend. It
1039 * also allows the hardware to not have to rely on a wake-up interrupt line.
1040 *
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001041 * WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL BEHAVIOR IN SUSPEND MODE:
1042 * ----------------------------------------------
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001043 *
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001044 * There are cases, however, where an application cannot afford to lose
1045 * any events, even when the device goes into suspend mode.
1046 * For a given rate, if a sensor has the capability to store at least 10
1047 * seconds worth of events in its FIFO and is able to wake up the Soc, it
1048 * can implement an optional secondary mode: the WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL mode.
1049 *
1050 * The caller will set the SENSORS_BATCH_WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL flag to
1051 * activate this mode. If the sensor does not support this mode, batch()
1052 * will fail when the flag is set.
1053 *
1054 * When running with the WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL flag set, no events can be
1055 * lost. When the FIFO is getting full, the sensor must wake up the SoC from
1056 * suspend and return a batch before the FIFO fills-up.
1057 * Depending on the device, it might take a few miliseconds for the SoC to
1058 * entirely come out of suspend and start flushing the FIFO. Enough head
1059 * room must be allocated in the FIFO to allow the device to entirely come
1060 * out of suspend without the FIFO overflowing (no events shall be lost).
1061 *
1062 * Implementing the WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL mode is optional.
1063 * If the hardware cannot support this mode, or if the physical
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001064 * FIFO is so small that the device would never be allowed to go into
Mathias Agopian1144bea2013-01-29 15:52:10 -08001065 * suspend for at least 10 seconds, then this function MUST fail when
1066 * the flag SENSORS_BATCH_WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL is set, regardless of
1067 * the value of the timeout parameter.

1073 * If the flag SENSORS_BATCH_DRY_RUN is set, this function returns
Mathias Agopian1144bea2013-01-29 15:52:10 -08001074 * without modifying the batch mode or the event period and has no side
1075 * effects, but returns errors as usual (as it would if this flag was
1076 * not set). This flag is used to check if batch mode is available for a
1077 * given configuration -- in particular for a given sensor at a given rate.

Mathias Agopian1144bea2013-01-29 15:52:10 -08001081 * --------------

1084 * on the state of the system (whether another sensor is on or not),
1085 * nor on whether the flag SENSORS_BATCH_DRY_RUN is set (in other words,
1086 * if a batch call with SENSORS_BATCH_DRY_RUN is successful,
1087 * the same call without SENSORS_BATCH_DRY_RUN must succeed as well).

Etienne Le Grandf770b7a2013-07-10 14:08:40 -07001089 * When timeout is not 0:
1090 * If successful, 0 is returned.
1091 * If the specified sensor doesn't support batch mode, return -EINVAL.
1092 * If the specified sensor's trigger-mode is one-shot, return -EINVAL.
1093 * If WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL is specified and the specified sensor's internal
1094 * FIFO is too small to store at least 10 seconds worth of data at the
1095 * given rate, -EINVAL is returned. Note that as stated above, this has to
1096 * be determined at compile time, and not based on the state of the
1097 * system.
1098 * If some other constraints above cannot be satisfied, return -EINVAL.
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001099 *
Mathias Agopian1144bea2013-01-29 15:52:10 -08001100 * Note: the timeout parameter, when > 0, has no impact on whether this
1101 * function succeeds or fails.
1102 *
Etienne Le Grandf770b7a2013-07-10 14:08:40 -07001103 * When timeout is 0:
1104 * The caller will never set the wake_upon_fifo_full flag.
1105 * The function must succeed, and batch mode must be deactivated.
1106 *
1107 * Independently of whether DRY_RUN is specified, When the call to batch()
1108 * fails, no state should be changed. In particular, a failed call to
1109 * batch() should not change the rate of the sensor. Example:
1110 * setDelay(..., 10ms)
1111 * batch(..., 20ms, ...) fails
1112 * rate should stay 10ms.

1115 * IMPLEMENTATION NOTES:
Mathias Agopian1144bea2013-01-29 15:52:10 -08001116 * ---------------------
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001117 *
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001118 * Batch mode, if supported, should happen at the hardware level,
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001119 * typically using hardware FIFOs. In particular, it SHALL NOT be
1120 * implemented in the HAL, as this would be counter productive.
1121 * The goal here is to save significant amounts of power.
1122 *
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001123 * In some implementations, events from several sensors can share the
1124 * same physical FIFO. In that case, all events in the FIFO can be sent and
1125 * processed by the HAL as soon as one batch must be reported.
1126 * For example, if the following sensors are activated:
1127 * - accelerometer batched with timeout = 20s
1128 * - gyroscope batched with timeout = 5s
1129 * then the accelerometer batches can be reported at the same time the
1130 * gyroscope batches are reported (every 5 seconds)
1131 *
1132 * Batch mode can be enabled or disabled at any time, in particular
1133 * while the specified sensor is already enabled, and this shall not
Mathias Agopiana4557722012-11-28 17:21:55 -08001134 * result in the loss of events.
1135 *
Etienne Le Grandca858142013-02-26 19:17:20 -08001136 * COMPARATIVE IMPORTANCE OF BATCHING FOR DIFFERENT SENSORS:
1137 * ---------------------------------------------------------
1138 *
1139 * On platforms on which hardware fifo size is limited, the system designers
1140 * might have to choose how much fifo to reserve for each sensor. To help
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001141 * with this choice, here is a list of applications made possible when
Etienne Le Grandca858142013-02-26 19:17:20 -08001142 * batching is implemented on the different sensors.
1143 *
1144 * High value: Low power pedestrian dead reckoning
1145 * Target batching time: 20 seconds to 1 minute
1146 * Sensors to batch:
1147 * - Step detector
1148 * - Rotation vector or game rotation vector at 5Hz
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001149 * Gives us step and heading while letting the SoC go to Suspend.
Etienne Le Grandca858142013-02-26 19:17:20 -08001150 *
1151 * High value: Medium power activity/gesture recognition
1152 * Target batching time: 3 seconds
1153 * Sensors to batch: accelerometer between 20Hz and 50Hz
1154 * Allows recognizing arbitrary activities and gestures without having
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001155 * to keep the SoC fully awake while the data is collected.
Etienne Le Grandca858142013-02-26 19:17:20 -08001156 *
1157 * Medium-high value: Interrupt load reduction
1158 * Target batching time: < 1 second
1159 * Sensors to batch: any high frequency sensor.
1160 * If the gyroscope is set at 800Hz, even batching just 10 gyro events can
1161 * reduce the number of interrupts from 800/second to 80/second.
1162 *
1163 * Medium value: Continuous low frequency data collection
1164 * Target batching time: > 1 minute
1165 * Sensors to batch: barometer, humidity sensor, other low frequency
1166 * sensors.
1167 * Allows creating monitoring applications at low power.
1168 *
1169 * Medium value: Continuous full-sensors collection
1170 * Target batching time: > 1 minute
1171 * Sensors to batch: all, at high frequencies
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001172 * Allows full collection of sensor data while leaving the SoC in
Etienne Le Grandca858142013-02-26 19:17:20 -08001173 * suspend mode. Only to consider if fifo space is not an issue.
Etienne Le Grand28f04112013-03-27 18:59:10 -07001174 *
1175 * In each of the cases above, if WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL is implemented, the
1176 * applications might decide to let the SoC go to suspend, allowing for even
1177 * more power savings.
