Hello all,
it would be really nice to include this patch to allow using of
RTC timer inside the kernel space. We can use the RTC timer as timing
source for ALSA sequencer.
The patch adds these three functions and one structure to rtc.h
and rtc.c:
typedef struct rtc_task {
void (*func)(void *private_data);
void *private_data;
} rtc_task_t;
int rtc_register(rtc_task_t *task);
int rtc_unregister(rtc_task_t *task);
int rtc_control(rtc_task_t *t, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg);

I wonder... how does alsa work on sparc/alpha/.... then? Not everyone
has RTC, right? Why don't you use regular kernel timers, instead?

Using the RTC timer is optional. The default timer is system timer, of
course.

Who is setting up this timer? This patch can also be done in userspace:
fd = open("/dev/rtc",...);
ioctl(alsafd, RTCFD, fd);
in the alsa driver you can do:
file = fget(fd);
...
if (file->f_op && file->f_op->ioctl)
file->f_op->ioctl(file->f_dentry->d_inode, file, cmd, arg);
...
fput(file);
bye, Roman

We need also a callback called at interrupt time.
