Hi,

This patch must come first. Also, the correct prefix is
dt-bindings: rtc:

If you had a fallback on atmel,at91sam9260-rtt, this would make merging
this series easier as this removes the need for 1/5 and 2/5.

I think 2/5 may be useful in the future but as far as the aic fixup
is concerned, both IPs are identical.

Is there any point using a gpbr register while there is already a much
better RTC in the system?

In any case, this diff should be merge with the other at91-sam9x60ek.dts
change instead of being with the dtsi change.

Regarding the fallback to "atmel,at91sam9260-rtt" I am aware of that. I
chose this approach because this IP is a bit different than the one with
"atmel,at91sam9260-rtt" compatible, meaning it has a features that the old
one has not. I'm talking about [1] which I cannot see on a SAM9G45 [2]
where RTT IP uses "atmel,at91sam9260-rtt" as compatible.

Is true it may be necessary in the future when new features may be
implemented. Taking this into account, would you like to get rid of the new
compatible in code and keep it only in device tree?

Is true it may be necessary in the future when new features may be
implemented. Taking this into account, would you like to get rid of the new
compatible in code and keep it only in device tree?

The changes in this patch are related to enabling the RTT. The other dts
change is related to enabling gpbr. The RTT uses that enabled gpbr -> one
change per patch.

If you still want to merge then, I'll do it, but then it becomes mixed.

What I said is not that the new compatible is not necessary at all but

This patch is already mixing add the gpbr in sam9x60ek and add the node
in sam9x60.dtsi which is worse.

Just have one patch adding the rtt node to the sam9x60.dtsi and then a
patch adding the RTT to sam9x60ek. Because the RTT uses the gpbr, it is
a good time to add enable the gpbr, this is a single functionnal change.

Let's say that for some reason, the RTT patch on sam9x60ek has to be
reverted, then the RTT node is still defined which is good for all the
other eventual users.

I didn't enabled this for a particular use case, but: couldn't this be used
by some user that wants to generate multiple alarms? from multiple RTCs?

Moreover, this IP's counter has the possibility of being clocked at 1Hz.
Couldn't this minimize the power consumption while being in a power saving
mode?

This patch is like this:

It doesn't adds the GPBR in sam9x60ek, it adds rtt in sam9x60ek which uses

RTT node would still be defined but GPBR node will not be enabled.

If RTT patch contains this change that I understand you want me to merge here:

+&gpbr {
+	status = "okay";
+};
+

then, theoretically, some other IPs using the GPBR (RTC have the
possibility of doing this), may be broken by reverting the RTT patch that
includes the GPBR enabling patch.

I very much doubt that as Linux is able to properly multiplex alarms and
basically, the only one we are interested in is actually wakeup.

And that 1Hz clock is coming from the RTC so using the RTC is
definitively consuming less power.

But this is very unlikely to happen because this would be limited to a
single board device tree instead of impact every sam9x60 based boards.

I think you can use the wakealarm sysfs exported file to prepare an alarm
and take user space actions based on that without being suspended.

Datasheet specifies this: "Configuring the RTPRES field value to 0x8000
(default value) corresponds to feeding the real-time counter with a

1Hz signal (if the slow clock is 32.768 kHz)."

So, it is not the RTC, it is the slow clock divided by 32768.

Very unlikely but a having a patch with diff like this:

+&gpbr {
+     status = "okay";
+};
+
+&rtt {
+     atmel,rtt-rtc-time-reg = <&gpbr 0x0>;

and reverting it may affect the other users of gpbr in sam9x60ek.dts.

I think you can use the wakealarm sysfs exported file to prepare an alarm
and take user space actions based on that without being suspended.

Datasheet specifies this: "Configuring the RTPRES field value to 0x8000
(default value) corresponds to feeding the real-time counter with a

1Hz signal (if the slow clock is 32.768 kHz)."

So, it is not the RTC, it is the slow clock divided by 32768.

This is not what you described previously, using RTPRES means running
the RTT at 32kHz. This is exactly what happens with the RTC but you get
the added clock calibration circuitry that is probably not drawing to
much power but the added consumption of the configurable prescaler
versus the static prescaler of the RTC is probably similar.

Using RTC1HZ would be driving the RTT at 1Hz.

Again, this affects only sam9x60ek.dts instead of possibly multiple DTs
that may be out of tree. So the risk of doing that is null.

+&gpbr {
