December 2025: Focused feature delivery to improve dynamic IIO device handling in libiio. Major feature implemented: IIO Device Hotplug Support via Udev Rules Installation. Added a CMake option INSTALL_IIOD_HOTPLUG_RULE (default OFF) to install udev rules that notify iiod of IIO device hotplug events via SIGUSR1, enabling robust handling in deferred probe workflows, loadable kernel modules, and dynamic device trees. No major bugs fixed documented for this month. Overall impact: enhances reliability and automation in environments where IIO devices appear after iiod startup, reducing manual intervention. Technologies/skills demonstrated: CMake configuration and feature flags, udev integration, SIGUSR1 signaling, Linux device management, and maintainable release engineering. Commit reference: 843d30f63bb4c47f488c95cce75a51cd07132431.

October 2025: Focused on stability, hardware support, and measurement fidelity in the analog IIO stack. Delivered two feature sets for AD9081 and ADF4030, accompanied by targeted reliability fixes to reduce risk, improve error reporting, and enable higher-precision measurements. Result: improved platform reliability in production, easier triage, and more accurate frequency data for downstream analytics and device control.
