2023-01-09adf435x: shuffle register description tableGerhard Sittig
Move table columns, put the bit field position to the front before the name to get a less fragile visual appearance. All fields have a position and a name (of variable length), some of them have a "parser" (actually a formatter for their content). Address Python style while we are here: Prefer tuples over lists for immutable data. Add trailing commas to reduce future diff sizes. Add a TODO comment about optional content checkers. The current decoder implementation lets invalid register data pass unnoticed. [ see a word diff for the commit's essence ]
2023-01-09adf435x: rephrase table lookups for display textsGerhard Sittig
Try a different presentation of exising information in the register fields' display text construction (extra parsers for known fields). Attempt a source code format which hopefully better lends itself to index range verification during review. Make the number of available expansion texts stand out more visually, so that readers can compare their count to the register field's width. Address those register fields with four or more expansion values, keep the simple single bit cases as they are. Add a comment for awareness.
2023-01-09adf435x: use .format() for Python string formattingGerhard Sittig
Rephrase the old style '%' operator string formatting, prefer .format() calls instead. It is assumed that routine call argument lists are more readable than optional/conditional tuples are, and not running format specifiers and literal text into each other helps readability as well, as do the .format() routine's optionally named references to parameters. Avoid text formatting which involves concatenation, always work from one single format instruction instead.
2023-01-09adf435x: factor out inspection of 32bit wordsGerhard Sittig
Move the inspection of a completed 32bit word into the .decode_word() routine. This simplifies checks for fatal constraints, as well as optional inspection of deeper detail levels when extra parsers are available. Rename variables in the code path which accumulate bits. Add comments to helper routines and to essential steps in complex interpretation code paths. Eliminate the unused return value of the .decode_field() method. Results in a lean and readable .decode() body.
2023-01-09adf435x: rework emission of annotationsGerhard Sittig
Separate data processing from text formatting in the code paths which emit annotations. Introduce a local .putg() helper. This unobfuscates the decoder's operation, and also happens to shorten text lines. Raises awareness for zoom levels and alternative text during maintenance. This commit incompatibly rephrases the "Wrong number of bits" message.
2023-01-09adf435x: Python list idioms in bits sequence accumulationGerhard Sittig
Use .extend() and .clear() for the Python list during accumulation of a 32bit word's bits sequence. This shall improve readability. Performance is less of an issue since this decoder's data amount remains small (32bit entities per SPI transfer). Comment on the unexpected(?) SPI decoder's BITS ordering when passing details up to stacked decoders. Raise and keep awareness for this non-obvious implementation detail during decoder maintenance. This implementation accumulates bits in the MSB order as they are sent in SPI frames. Yet keeps the LSB bit order when a completely accumulated 32bit word gets inspected, to reduce the diff size. Bit field extraction and annotation emission code paths assume a specific timestamp ordering. The separation of transport and inspection also simplifies maintenance, should a future SPI decoder provide BITS in their received order.
2023-01-09adf435x: use common bits to number conversion helperGerhard Sittig
Use common support code to convert bit fields to integer numbers. Also unobfuscate the decode_bits() method and its returned values' layout. Improves readability and factors out common expressions.
2023-01-09adf435x: Move decoder logic to SPI transfersVesa-Pekka Palmu
The previous implementation of the ADF435x decoder assumed knowledge of internal details which are the SPI transport layer's responsibility. And encoded an inappropriate chip select polarity in the process (falling CS edge). The datasheet specifies that previously clocked in data bits get latched on rising LE edges. Not all setups were affected, that's why the issue went unnoticed before. Use the lower layer's TRANSFER annotation to process the completion of an ADF435x register access, after BITS annotations made the location of individual bits available. The LE (CS) signal's polarity remains a detail of the SPI decoding layer, and must be configured there. The SPI decoder's default matches the ADF435x chip's expectation. This fixes bug #1814.

2023-01-09adf435x: Add warning on frame size mismatchVesa-Pekka Palmu
Check the bit count of SPI transfers. Only start inspecting ADF435x register content when the accumulation of the expected 32bit word has completed. Emit a warning annotation for unexpected transfer sizes.
2023-01-09adf435x: Clean up SPI data inputVesa-Pekka Palmu
Avoid generic variable names. Only unpack parameters which are provided by the lower layer decoder after the stacked decoder checked their type and is aware of their meaning.
2020-01-01All PDs: Consistently use singular/plural for annotation classes/rows.Uwe Hermann
2019-04-02decoders: Fix incorrect 'outputs' fields.Uwe Hermann
Only add items to 'outputs' if the respective PD actually has OUTPUT_PYTHON support implemented as of right now. Various decoders might get OUTPUT_PYTHON support later, but the 'outputs' field should reflect the current status.
2019-03-15decoders: Add/update tags for each PD.Uwe Hermann

2017-12-22all decoders: introduce a reset() methodGerhard Sittig
Move initialization code of protocol decoders from the constructor to a new reset() helper method. The libsigrokdecode backend could run this method several times to clear the decoder's internal state, before new data from another acquisition gets fed to decode() calls.
2017-06-16Mark all stacked decoders as being PD API version 3.Uwe Hermann
This is not really relevant for stacked PDs currently (they can be used unmodified with either PDv2 or PDv3 low-level decoders), but it'll allow us to drop PDv2 support completely.
