Comedi                                             03/04/2025                            COMEDI_GET_HARDCAL_C(3)

       The function comedi_get_hardcal_converter initializes the comedi_polynomial_t pointed to by converter so
       it can be passed to either comedi_to_physical, or comedi_from_physical. The result can be used to convert
       data from the specified subdevice, channel, and range. The direction parameter specifies whether
       converter will be passed to comedi_to_physical or comedi_from_physical.

       This function initializes the comedi_polynomial_t pointed to by converter as a simple linear function
       with no calibration information, appropriate for boards which do their gain/offset/nonlinearity
       corrections in hardware. If your board needs calibration to be performed in software by the host
       computer, use comedi_get_softcal_converter instead. A subdevice will advertise the fact that it depends
       on a software calibration with the SDF_SOFT_CALIBRATED subdevice flag.

       The result of this function will only depend on the channel parameter if either
       comedi_range_is_chan_specific or comedi_maxdata_is_chan_specific returns true for the specified
       subdevice.

       comedi_get_hardcal_converter - get converter for hardware-calibrated subdevice

       Returns 0 on success, -1 on failure.
