Subject: [PATCH] rtc: interface: fix wakeup source leak in rtc_timer_do_work()
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 19:21:25 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261112002125.24566-1-jesse.casco@gmail.com> (raw)

rtc_update_irq(), rtc_set_time() and the -ETIME paths of
rtc_timer_enqueue() and rtc_timer_remove() call pm_stay_awake() on the
RTC parent device before scheduling rtc->irqwork, and
rtc_timer_do_work() balances that with pm_relax() when it is done.

Since commit e8ba8a2bc4f6 ("rtc: check if __rtc_read_time was successful
in rtc_timer_do_work()"), a failed time read returns early without
calling pm_relax(). A single read error then leaves the wakeup source
active, reads of /sys/power/wakeup_count block and suspend cannot
proceed.

Seen on an ASUS Zenbook A16 (UX3607OA), where reads of the PMIC GLINK
RTC time out and the pmic_glink.rtc-glink.0 wakeup source stays active
from boot. With this change the source is released after each failed
read.

Fixes: e8ba8a2bc4f6 ("rtc: check if __rtc_read_time was successful in rtc_timer_do_work()")
