Instead we use something very similar to the struct tm, i.e. struct rtc_time, as used by hwclock. One of the reasons for doing it this way is to allow for EFI to still evolve without necessarily impacting any of the user applications.

The specifics of the legacy RTC are still in include/linux/mc146818rtc.h. - -III/ Time of day service + +3. Time of day service +====================== The part of the driver gives access to the time of day service of EFI. Two ioctl()s, compatible with the legacy RTC calls: - Read the CMOS clock: ioctl(d, RTC_RD_TIME, &rtc); + Read the CMOS clock:: + + ioctl(d, RTC_RD_TIME, &rtc); + + Write the CMOS clock:: - Write the CMOS clock: ioctl(d, RTC_SET_TIME, &rtc); + ioctl(d, RTC_SET_TIME, &rtc); The rtc is a pointer to a data structure defined in rtc.h which is close -to a struct tm: - -struct rtc_time { - int tm_sec; - int tm_min; - int tm_hour; - int tm_mday; - int tm_mon; - int tm_year; - int tm_wday; - int tm_yday; - int tm_isdst; -}; +to a struct tm:: + + struct rtc_time { + int tm_sec; + int tm_min; + int tm_hour; + int tm_mday; + int tm_mon; + int tm_year; + int tm_wday; + int tm_yday; + int tm_isdst; + }; The driver takes care of converting back an forth between the EFI time and this format. Those two ioctl()s can be exercised with the hwclock command: -For reading: -# /sbin/hwclock --show -Mon Mar 6 15:32:32 2000 -0.910248 seconds +For reading:: -For setting: -# /sbin/hwclock --systohc + # /sbin/hwclock --show + Mon Mar 6 15:32:32 2000 -0.910248 seconds + +For setting:: + + # /sbin/hwclock --systohc Root privileges are required to be able to set the time of day. -IV/ Wakeup Alarm service +4. Wakeup Alarm service +======================= EFI provides an API by which one can program when a machine should wakeup, i.e. reboot. This is very different from the alarm provided by the legacy RTC which is some kind of interval timer alarm. For this reason we don't use the same ioctl()s to get access to the service. Instead we have -introduced 2 news ioctl()s to the interface of an RTC. +introduced 2 news ioctl()s to the interface of an RTC.

For example, a SET_FOO ioctl would -be _IOW, although the kernel would actually read data from user space; -a GET_FOO ioctl would be _IOR, although the kernel would actually write -data to user space. - -The first argument to _IO, _IOW, _IOR, or _IOWR is an identifying letter -or number from the table below. Because of the large number of drivers, -many drivers share a partial letter with other drivers. - -If you are writing a driver for a new device and need a letter, pick an -unused block with enough room for expansion: 32 to 256 ioctl commands. -You can register the block by patching this file and submitting the -patch to Linus Torvalds. Or you can e-mail me at <mec@shout.net> and -I'll register one for you. - -The second argument to _IO, _IOW, _IOR, or _IOWR is a sequence number -to distinguish ioctls from each other. The third argument to _IOW, -_IOR, or _IOWR is the type of the data going into the kernel or coming -out of the kernel (e.g. 'int' or 'struct foo'). NOTE! Do NOT use -sizeof(arg) as the third argument as this results in your ioctl thinking -it passes an argument of type size_t. - -Some devices use their major number as the identifier; this is OK, as -long as it is unique. Some devices are irregular and don't follow any -convention at all. - -Following this convention is good because: - -(1) Keeping the ioctl's globally unique helps error checking: - if a program calls an ioctl on the wrong device, it will get an - error rather than some unexpected behaviour. - -(2) The 'strace' build procedure automatically finds ioctl numbers - defined with _IO, _IOW, _IOR, or _IOWR. - -(3) 'strace' can decode numbers back into useful names when the - numbers are unique. - -(4) People looking for ioctls can grep for them more easily when - this convention is used to define the ioctl numbers. - -(5) When following the convention, the driver code can use generic - code to copy the parameters between user and kernel space. - -This table lists ioctls visible from user land for Linux/x86. It contains -most drivers up to 2.6.31, but I know I am missing some.
