Re: Help with rtc to hpet conversion of OSGPS driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Maybe I'm way off here, but that seems to be the function to register a RTC hardware chip with the kernel. I want to use a real-time clock interrupt to wake up my driver and service the GPS correlator, about every 500ms. Please let me know if I'm misunderstanding.

grep -r rtc_device_register drivers/rtc/

Does that help?

I see they've been replaced by the corresponding
HPET functions, which is great. However, hpet_register() always returns -16
(EBUSY).  This could be because I lack the correct hardware (I'm running 32-bit
Linux on a Athlon64 with an NVIDIA chipset) or some other reason.
