[PATCH 0/3] Apple Silicon SMC RTC driver

[PATCH 0/3] Apple Silicon SMC RTC driver

[Sven Peter]

Hi,

Now that the core mfd device has been upstream I've prepared one of the
child drivers that is still missing: RTC support.
This driver is required to read and set the hardware clock and requires
a reference to an additional NVMEM cell to store the offset and thus
requires a device tree node.

The series applies cleanly to 6.17-rc1 but is based on a tree with three
additional commits to add the SMC nodes to the DTS which didn't make it
into 6.17. You can just ignore that and pretend this is based on
6.17-rc1 since I'll take the dts update through my tree anyway.

Next to this SMC child driver we're still working on an input/misc HID
driver for the powerbutton, a hwmon driver for the various sensors and a
power-supply driver to manage the batteries.

Best,

Sven

[PATCH 1/3] dt-bindings: rtc: Add Apple SMC RTC

[Sven Peter]

Apple Silicon Macs (M1, etc.) have an RTC that is part of the PMU IC,
but most of the PMU functionality is abstracted out by the SMC.
An additional RTC offset stored inside NVMEM is required to compute
the current date/time.

No resources except nvmem? This should be folded into the parent. Don't
create device node to instantiate drivers.

Missing example. If this is part of other device (like MFD), then the
one there should be extended here.

Well, the reboot node has nvmem entries too, so probably better to keep 
this as child node.

Is there more functionality planned/needed here (for the mfd)? If so, 
please send it all at once. One child node at a time makes DT 
maintainers grumpy.

I'd very much like to avoid that!

There's one more driver (hwmon) that needs another child node and two 
more sub-devices that don't need any or expose any resources (hid for 
the power button and power/supply for batteries). I've talked to James
(who wrote hwmon) and he's going to submit the hwmon series together 
with at least rtc (and hid) so that you can see all additional bindings 
at once.


Thanks,


Sven

[PATCH 2/3] rtc: Add new rtc-macsmc driver for Apple Silicon Macs

[Sven Peter]

From: Hector Martin <marcan@marcan.st>

Apple Silicon Macs (M1, etc.) have an RTC that is part of the PMU IC,
but most of the PMU functionality is abstracted out by the SMC.
On T600x machines, the RTC counter must be accessed via the SMC to
get full functionality, and it seems likely that future machines
will move towards making SMC handle all RTC functionality.

The SMC RTC counter access is implemented on all current machines
as of the time of this writing, on firmware 12.x. However, the RTC
offset (needed to set the time) is still only accessible via direct
PMU access. To handle this, we expose the RTC offset as an NVMEM
cell from the SPMI PMU device node, and this driver consumes that
cell and uses it to compute/set the current time.
