+ * to keep a partial wake-lock should they wish to receive sensor
+ * events while the screen is off. While in suspend mode, and unless

+ *
+ * Note that conceptually, the sensor itself is not de-activated while in

+ * the SoC gets out of suspend mode, operations resume as usual. Of course,
+ * in practice sensors shall be disabled while in suspend mode to
+ * save power, unless batch mode is active, in which case they must
+ * continue fill their internal FIFO (see the documentation of batch() to
+ * learn how suspend interacts with batch mode).
+ *
+ * In batch mode and only when the flag SENSORS_BATCH_WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL is
+ * set and supported, the specified sensor must be able to wake-up the SoC.
+ *
+ * There are notable exceptions to this behavior, which are sensor-dependent
+ * (see sensor types definitions below)
+ *

+     * A timeout value of zero disables batch mode for the given sensor.
+     *
+     * While in batch mode sensor events are reported in batches at least
+     * every "timeout" nanosecond; that is all events since the previous batch
+     * are recorded and returned all at once. Batches can be interleaved and
+     * split, and as usual events of the same sensor type are time-ordered.
+     *
+     * setDelay() is not affected and it behaves as usual.
+     *
+     * Each event has a timestamp associated with it, the timestamp
+     * must be accurate and correspond to the time at which the event
+     * physically happened.
+     *
+     * If internal h/w FIFOs fill-up before the timeout, then events are
+     * reported at that point. No event shall be dropped or lost,
+     *
+     * By default batch mode doesn't significantly change the interaction with
+     * suspend mode, that is, sensors must continue to allow the SoC to
+     * go into suspend mode and sensors must stay active to fill their
+     * internal FIFO, in this mode, when the FIFO fills-up, it shall wrap
+     * around (basically behave like a circular buffer, overwriting events).
+     * As soon as the SoC comes out of suspend mode, a batch is produced with
+     * as much as the recent history as possible, and batch operation
+     * resumes as usual.
+     *
+     * The behavior described above allows applications to record the recent
+     * history of a set of sensor while keeping the SoC into suspend. It
+     * also allows the hardware to not have to rely on a wake-up interrupt line.
+     *
+     * There are cases however where an application cannot afford to lose
+     * any events, even when the device goes into suspend mode. The behavior
+     * specified above can be altered by setting the
+     * SENSORS_BATCH_WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL flag. If this flag is set, the SoC
+     * must be woken up from suspend and a batch must be returned before
+     * the FIFO fills-up. Enough head room must be allocated in the FIFO to allow
+     * the device to entirely come out of suspend (which might take a while and
+     * is device dependent) such that no event are lost.
+     *
+     *   If the hardware cannot support this mode, or, if the physical
+     *   FIFO is so small that the device would never be allowed to go into
+     *   suspend for long enough (typically 4 to 10 seconds), then this
+     *   function MUST fail when the flag SENSORS_BATCH_WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL
+     *   is set.
+     *
+     *
+     * If the flag SENSORS_BATCH_DRY_RUN is set, this function returns
+     * without modifying the batch mode and has no side effects, but returns
+     * errors as usual (as it would if this flag was not set). This flag
+     * is used to check if batch mode is available for a given configuration.
+     *
+     * Return values:
+     *
+     * If successful, 0 is returned.
+     * If the specified sensor doesn't support batch mode, -EINVAL is returned.
+     * If the specified sensor's trigger-mode is one-shot, -EINVAL is returned.
+     * If any of the constraint above cannot be satisfied, -EINVAL is returned.
+     *
+     * If timeout is set to 0, this function must succeed.
+     *
+     *
+     * IMPLEMENTATION NOTES:
+     *
+     * batch mode, if supported, should happen at the hardware level,
+     * typically using hardware FIFOs. In particular, it SHALL NOT be
+     * implemented in the HAL, as this would be counter productive.
+     * The goal here is to save significant amounts of power.
+     *
+     * In SENSORS_BATCH_WAKE_UPON_FIFO_FULL, if the hardware has a
+     * limited FIFO size that wouldn't permit significant savings
+     * (typical on some gyroscopes), because it wouldn't allow the SoC to go
+     * into suspend mode for enough time, then it is imperative to NOT SUPPORT
+     * batch mode for that sensor.
+     *
+     * batch mode can be enabled or disabled at any time, in particular
+     * while the specified sensor is already enabled and this shall not
+     * result in the loss of events.
