Subject: [PATCH 2/4] rtc: pm8xxx: fix uefi offset lookup
Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2025 09:51:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250423075143.11157-3-johan+linaro@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250423075143.11157-1-johan+linaro@kernel.org>

On many Qualcomm platforms the PMIC RTC control and time registers are
read-only so that the RTC time can not be updated. Instead an offset
needs be stored in some machine-specific non-volatile memory, which a
driver can take into account.

On platforms where the offset is stored in a Qualcomm specific UEFI
variable the variables are also accessed in a non-standard way, which
means that the OS cannot assume that the variable service is available
by the time the driver probes.

Use the new 'qcom,uefi-rtc-info' property to determine whether to probe
defer until the UEFI offset becomes available so that the offset can be
used also when the RTC driver is built in or when a dependency of the
UEFI variable driver is built as a module (e.g. the driver for the SCM
interconnects).
