Looks superficially right to me, but would like an Ack from Linus Walleij.

Linus?

I didn't work on these calculations, only infrastructure for the driver
but FWIW:
Acked-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>

Matt Ranostay @Intel is the person you probably want to ACK it though,
he added the humidity calculations :)

Yours,
Linus Walleij

It just turned out that there must be another error in the calculation. I'll fix
and test it first.

When i'm done i'll send a new version of the patch.

Ok will hold off till review till the next patchset... BTW this
datasheet's calculations made my eyes bleed so it is quiet likely it
has bugs...

Hmm the datatypes you are casting to s32 are already signed
integers...  Interested in what you found on what the actual bug is.

Hi Matt,

i've extracted the error condition in a small userspace application for
demonstration. Just compile and see that in this case the variable H3 is zero
but the whole term evaluates differently if treated as unsigned or signed.

The whole example including the values of the variables are taken from the real
driver.

Andreas


Now the example:

 * calculation of humidity compensation with BME280 sensor
 *

 *
 */

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(int argn, char* argv[])
{
	int adc_humidity = 28275;
	int t_fine = 50623;
	unsigned int H1 = 75, H3 = 0;
	int H2 = 360, H4 = 324, H5 = 0, H6 = 30;
	int var;

	var = -26177;
	/* extracted errornous term with cast */
	printf("with cast:    %d\n", (((var * H6) >> 10) * (((var * (int)H3) >> 11) 
							+ (int)32768)) >> 10);
	/* extracted errornous term now without a cast */
	printf("without cast: %d\n", (((var * H6) >> 10) * (((var * H3) >> 11) 
							+ 32768)) >> 10);

	printf("\n");
	printf("t_fine: %d; humidity: %d\nH: %d; %d; %d; %d; %d; %d\n", 
			t_fine, adc_humidity, H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6);
	printf("\n");

	/* the whole example taken from the driver */
	/* with the cast as proposed by the documentation */
	var = ((int)t_fine) - (int)76800;
	var = ((((adc_humidity << 14) - (H4 << 20) - (H5 * var))
		+ (int)16384) >> 15) * (((((((var * H6) >> 10)
		* (((var * (int)H3) >> 11) + (int)32768)) >> 10)
		+ (int)2097152) * H2 + 8192) >> 14);
	var -= ((((var >> 15) * (var >> 15)) >> 7) * (int)H1) >> 4;

	printf("with cast:    var: %d\n", var>>12);
	printf("\n");

	/* now the same calculation without the cast */
	var = (t_fine) - 76800;
	var = ((((adc_humidity << 14) - (H4 << 20) - (H5 * var))
		+ 16384) >> 15) * (((((((var * H6) >> 10)
		* (((var * H3) >> 11) + 32768)) >> 10)
		+ 2097152) * H2 + 8192) >> 14);
	var -= ((((var >> 15) * (var >> 15)) >> 7) * H1) >> 4;

	printf("without cast: var: %d\n", var>>12);

	return 0;
}

---

Output:

with cast:    -24544
without cast: 4169760

t_fine: 50623; humidity: 28275
H: 75; 360; 0; 324; 0; 30

with cast:    var: 41671

without cast: var: 124497

Ok now I see what you are referencing from the datasheet, and can
confirm the values are incorrect.

Just a suggestion rather than have all those casts it would be easier
to just change H1 and H3 types
to signed integers.

Thanks,

Matt
