 is almost ok, please check my comments below:


 	buf[0] = DS1672_REG_CNT_BASE;
 	buf[1] = secs & 0x000000FF;

 	buf[4] = (secs & 0xFF000000) >> 24;

 I'd add a comment to say that 0 enables the osc.

ack.

+static int ds1672_get_control(struct i2c_client *client)
+{

[..]

+	} else
+		return val;
+}

 I think it would be cleaner to define the routine as follow:
.. ds1672_get_control(...., unsigned char *status)

 and to usa the space provided by the caller to store the result.

+	if (ds1672_get_control(client))
+		state = "disabled";
+	return sprintf(buf, "%s\n", state);
+}

Not sure if I follow you here. I think you are suggesting for ds1672_get_control to look like:

static int ds1672_get_control(struct i2c_client *client, u8 *status)
{
        unsigned char addr = DS1672_REG_CONTROL;

        struct i2c_msg msgs[] = {
{ client->addr, 0, 1, &addr }, /* setup read ptr */ { client->addr, I2C_M_RD, 1, status }, /* read control */
        };
...
}

which is fine. Any suggestions on what to do on an error in the sysfs attrib function?

please #define DS1672_REG_CONTROL_EOSC 0x80
and check the single bit.

ack

+	err = ds1672_get_control(client);

 ditto.


 thanks for your work!

no problem.
