Kernel driver mpu
=====================
Supported chips:
* InvenSense IMU3050
Prefix: 'mpu3050'
Datasheet:
PS-MPU-3000A-00.2.4b.pdf
* InvenSense IMU6000
Prefix: 'mpu6000'
Datasheet:
MPU-6000A-00 v1.0.pdf

Description
-----------
The mpu is a motion processor unit that controls the mpu3050 gyroscope, a slave
accelerometer, a compass and a pressure sensor, or the mpu6000 and slave
compass. This document describes how to install the driver into a Linux kernel
and a small note about how to set up the file permissions in an android file
system.
Sysfs entries
-------------
/dev/mpu
/dev/mpuirq
/dev/accelirq
/dev/compassirq
/dev/pressureirq
General Remarks MPU3050
-----------------------
* Valid addresses for the MPU3050 is 0x68.
* Accelerometer must be on the secondary I2C bus for MPU3050, the
magnetometer must be on the primary bus and pressure sensor must
be on the primary bus.
General Remarks MPU6000
-----------------------
* Valid addresses for the MPU6000 is 0x68.
* Magnetometer must be on the secondary I2C bus for the MPU6000.
* Accelerometer slave address must be set to 0x68
* Gyro and Accel orientation matrices should be the same
Programming the chip using /dev/mpu
----------------------------------
Programming of MPU3050 or MPU6000 is done by first opening the /dev/mpu file and
then performing a series of IOCTLS on the handle returned. The IOCTL codes can
be found in mpu.h. Typically this is done by the mllite library in user
space.
Adding to a Kernel
==================
The mpu driver is designed to be inserted in the drivers/misc part of the
kernel. Extracting the tarball from the root kernel dir will place the
contents of the tarball here:
/drivers/misc/mpu3050
/include/linux/mpu.h
/include/linux/mpu3050.h
/include/linux/mpu6000.h
After this is done the drivers/misc/Kconfig must be edited to add the line:
source "drivers/misc/mpu3050/Kconfig"
Similarly drivers/misc/Makefile must be edited to add the line:
obj-y += mpu3050/
Configuration can then be done as normal.
NOTE: This driver depends on a kernel patch to drivers/char/char.c. This patch
started to be included in most 2.6.35 based kernels.

Board and Platform Data
-----------------------
In order for the driver to work, board and platform data specific to the device
needs to be added to the board file. A mpu3050_platform_data structure must
be created and populated and set in the i2c_board_info_structure. For details
of each structure member see mpu.h. All values below are simply an example and
should be modified for your platform.

.irq = (IH_GPIO_BASE + MPU_GPIO_IRQ),
.platform_data = &mpu_data,
},
};
Typically the IRQ is a GPIO input pin and needs to be configured properly. If
in the above example GPIO 168 corresponds to IRQ 299, the following should be
done as well:
#define MPU_GPIO_IRQ 168
gpio_request(MPU_GPIO_IRQ,"MPUIRQ");
gpio_direction_input(MPU_GPIO_IRQ)
NOTE:
=====
In previous releases, the sensors were defined using CONFIG_SENSORS_SENSORNAME convention.
From this release onwards this convention will be changed to CONFIG_MPU_SENSORS_SENSORNAME.
Please make note of this change.
Dynamic Debug
=============
The mpu3050 makes use of dynamic debug. For details on how to use this
refer to Documentation/dynamic-debug-howto.txt
Android File Permissions
========================
To set up the file permissions on an android system, the /dev/mpu and
/dev/mpuirq files needs to be added to the system/core/init/devices.c file
inside the perms_ structure.
static struct perms_ devperms[] = {
{ "/dev/mpu" ,0660, AID_SYSTEM, AID_SYSTEM, 1 },
};
Sufficient file permissions need to be give to read and write it by the system.
For gingerbread and later the system/core/rootdir/ueventd.rc file needs to be
modified with the appripriate lines added.
