From ac529b1e15a2872b6e2894b0661fb49b11c95169 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Loptien Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2013 13:18:31 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] AMD/Persimmon: Add RTC init to CIMX SB800 Adding RTC init code to the Southbridge initialization code in 'late.c'. This initializes the RTC so that the Date Alarm register is set to a valid value (0x00) at startup. By setting the Date Alarm register to 0x00, it does not get evaluated along with the seconds, minutes, and hours when running 'fwts s3'. Information about fwts (Firmware Test Suite) can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Reference/fwts This was tested on a Persimmon but will apply to other mainboards as well.
