asm330lhhxg1 can't read any buffer data with iio_generic_buffer

[AlysonQ]

Hi,

I'm porting the asm330lhhxg1 on my embedded system device(Linux/arm 4.9.257). I am attempting to use the IIO buffer to continuously read data at its sampling_frequency. However, the process seems to be stuck as shown below:

# Enable Y-axis acceleration
echo 1 > /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device2/scan_elements/in_accel_y_en

# Enable X-axis acceleration
echo 1 > /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device2/scan_elements/in_accel_x_en

# Enable timestamp
echo 1 > /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device2/scan_elements/in_timestamp_en

# Enable Z-axis acceleration
echo 1 > /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device2/scan_elements/in_accel_z_en

# Attempt to enable buffer
echo 1 > /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device2/buffer/enable

# Run generic buffer utility
./iio_generic_buffer -a -g -n asm330lhhx_accel
# Output from incomplete command
  iio device number being used is 2
  trigger-less mode selected
  Auto-channels selected but some channels are already activated in sysfs
  Proceeding without activating any channels
##stuck here

#Here is my device tree configuration under `i2c0`:

&i2c0 {
   asm330lhhx-imu@0x6b {
        compatible = "st,asm330lhhx";
        reg = <0x6b>;
        interrupt-parent = <&gpio0>;
        interrupts = <0 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
        /*vddio-supply = <&sensors_vddio>;*/
        /*vdd-supply = <&sensors_vdd>;*/
	    drive-open-drain;
        st,int-pin = <1>;
        st,mlc-int-pin = <2>;
        mount-matrix = "1", "0", "0",
                   "0", "1", "0",
                   "0", "0", "1";
        };
    }

Here is the output similar to the content on this webpage:

I expected to see information similar to what's on the webpage, but it did not appear.

Hi AlysonQ,

We kindly ask you to consider that this project has been discontinued, therefore we recommend you to switch to the new IIO project st-mems-android-linux-drivers-iio which will soon also support the asm330lhhxg1 device.
In this new project the IIO drivers support continuously data reading via buffer and are constantly updated.
