Re: [rtc-linux] Re: [PATCH 2/2] rtc: Add boot_timesource sysfsattribute

[Matthew Garrett]

Ok. How's this?

commit 09895be2ef8528dc33ca8516ca4f5ccbec2ffb05
Author: Matthew Garrett <mjg@xxxxxxxxxx>

    rtc: Add hctosys sysfs attribute
    
    CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS allows the kernel to read the system time from the RTC
    at boot and resume, avoiding the need for userspace to do so. Unfortunately
    userspace currently has no way to know whether this configuration option
    is enabled and thus cannot sensibly choose whether to run hwclock itself or
    not. Add a hctosys sysfs attribute which indicates whether a given RTC set
    the system clock.
