Subject: X86: Impossible select Enhanced Real Time Clock Support (legacy PC RTC driver)
Date: Sun, 13 Apr 2014 21:05:46 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1397415946.1555.16.camel@vger.seibold.net> (raw)
Since some kernel version it is impossible to select the Enhanced Real
Time Clock Support (legacy PC RTC driver) because RTC_LIB is set by
default in arch/x86/Kconfig, but the rule for selecting CONFIG_RTC is
RTC_LIB=n. So the code of driver/char/rtc is still useless.
This breaks the API since there is no more misc device /dev/rtc
available without a udev rule or a link to /dev/rtc0.
