Hi all,

I'm working on a device driver for an input device, which has both
directional axes in addition to sensors (accelerometer and gyro). I'm

Depending on what your device is, you might be looking for the IIO sub-
system instead, which hosts most of the sensor-type drivers.

iio-sensor-proxy is one of the daemon that can consume data from it
(even if somewhat unelegantly these days).
