Currently IIO only supports buffer mode for capture devices like ADCs. Add support for buffered mode for output devices like DACs. The output buffer implementation is analogous to the input buffer implementation. Instead of using read() to get data from the buffer write() is used to copy data into the buffer. poll() with POLLOUT will wakeup if there is space available. Drivers can remove data from a buffer using iio_pop_from_buffer(), the function can e.g. called from a trigger handler to write the data to hardware. A buffer can only be either a output buffer or an input, but not both. So, for a device that has an ADC and DAC path, this will mean 2 IIO buffers (one for each direction). The direction of the buffer is decided by the new direction field of the iio_buffer struct and should be set after allocating and before registering it.

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.
