8I) Overview
9-----------
10
11U-Boot currently implements one common API for RTC devices. The interface
12is defined in include/rtc.h and comprises of functions and structures:
13
14 struct rtc_time {
15 int tm_sec;
16 int tm_min;
17 int tm_hour;
18 int tm_mday;
19 int tm_mon;
20 int tm_year;
21 int tm_wday;
22 int tm_yday;
23 int tm_isdst;
24 };
25
26 int rtc_get (struct rtc_time *);
27 int rtc_set (struct rtc_time *);
28 void rtc_reset (void);
29
30The functions are implemented by a proper device driver in drivers/rtc
31directory and the driver to be compiled in is selected in a Makefile.
32Drivers are mutually exclusive.
33
34Drivers depends on date code in drivers/rtc/date.c and naturally on board
35specific data.
36
37II) Approach
38------------
39
40 1) New API
41 ----------
42 In the UDM each rtc driver would register itself by a function
43
44 int rtc_device_register(struct instance *i,
45 struct rtc_device_ops *o);
46
47 The structure being defined as follows:
48
49 struct rtc_device_ops {
50 int (*get_time)(struct instance *i, struct rtc_time *t);
51 int (*set_time)(struct instance *i, struct rtc_time *t);
52 int (*reset)(struct instance *i);
53 };
54
55
56 2) Conversion thougths
57 ----------------------
58 U-Boot RTC drivers exports the same functions and therefore the conversion
59 of the drivers is straight-forward. There is no initialization needed.
