Alessandro, is there any mechanism to determine if an RTC is enabled
through /dev or sysfs?
The DS1672 has an enable counting bit in its I2C register interface.
I can have a set time enable it if its not, however I'd like to
report to user space the fact that its not enabled.
No mechanism, an rtc is actually supposed to be running. You may want
to export a sysfs attribute from the ds1672 driver to inform
user space.
Any suggestions on what to call it?
I can't check it right now, but iirc I enable the ds1672 counting
bit in the driver init code.
Hmm, I didn't see that. I was going to send a patch to have
ds1672_set_mmss() always enable the counting bit.
