From 22258fa40e54ceefe75a6c6a793f5c44d8339b9c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Gibson Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2008 14:25:34 +1100 Subject: [POWERPC] Enable RTC for Ebony and Walnut (v2) This patch extends the Ebony and Walnut platform code to instantiate the existing ds1742 RTC class driver for the DS1743 RTC/NVRAM chip found on both those boards. The patch uses a helper function to scan the device tree and instantiate the appropriate platform_device based on it, so it should be easy to extend for other boards which have mmio mapped RTC chips. Along with this, the device tree binding for the ds1743 chips is tweaked, based on the existing DS1385 OF binding found at: http://playground.sun.com/1275/proposals/Closed/Remanded/Accepted/346-it.txt Although that document covers the NVRAM portion of the chip, whereas here we're interested in the RTC portion, so it's not entirely clear if that's a good model. This implements only RTC class driver support - that is /dev/rtc0, not /dev/rtc, and the low-level get/set time callbacks remain unimplemented. That means in order to get at the clock you will either need a modified version of hwclock which will look at /dev/rtc0, or you'll need to configure udev to symlink rtc0 to rtc.
