We found these warnings in arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c as follows:
warning: symbol 'decrementer_max' was not declared. Should it be static?
warning: symbol 'rtc_lock' was not declared. Should it be static?
warning: symbol 'dtl_consumer' was not declared. Should it be static?

Declare 'decrementer_max' and 'rtc_lock' in powerpc asm/time.h.
Rename 'rtc_lock' in drviers/rtc/rtc-vr41xx.c to 'vr41xx_rtc_lock' to
avoid the conflict with the variable in powerpc asm/time.h.
Move 'dtl_consumer' definition behind "include <asm/dtl.h>" because it
is declared there.

v2:
- Instead of including linux/mc146818rtc.h in powerpc kernel/time.c, declare
  rtc_lock in powerpc asm/time.h.

V1 was actually the correct thing to do. rtc_lock is there exactly
because chrp and maple are using mc146818 compatible RTCs. This is then
useful because then drivers/char/nvram.c is enabled. The proper fix
would be to scrap all of that and use rtc-cmos for those platforms as
this drives the RTC properly and exposes the NVRAM for the mc146818.

Or at least, if there are no users for the char/nvram driver on those
two platforms, remove the spinlock and stop enabling CONFIG_NVRAM or
more likely rename the symbol as it seems to be abused by both chrp and
powermac.

I'm not completely against the rename in vr41xxx but the fix for the
warnings can and should be contained in arch/powerpc.

Ok so rtc_lock is not even used by the char/nvram.c driver as it is
completely compiled out.

I guess it is fine having it move to the individual platform as looking
very quickly at the Kconfig, it is not possible to select both
simultaneously. Tentative patch:

Do you mean that 'rtc_lock' declared in linux/mc146818rtc.h points to

same thing as that defined in powerpc kernel/time.c? And you think V1

was correct? Oh, I should have added you to my patch V1 senders:)

Yes, I agree with you. But I have no choice because there is a compiling 
error.

Maybe there's a better way.

So, what about my patch V1? Should I resend it and add you to senders?


Thanks.

Looking at it once more, it looks like including linux/mc146818rtc.h is the thing to do, at least 
for now. Several platforms are defining the rtc_lock exactly the same way as powerpc does, and 
including mc146818rtc.h

I think that to get it clean, this change should go in a dedicated patch and do a bit more and 
explain exactly what is being do and why. I'll try to draft something for it.

He Y., can you make a version v3 of your patch excluding the rtc_lock change ?

Finally, I think there is not enough changes to justify a separate patch.

So you can send a V3 based on your V1. In addition to the changes you had in V1, please remove the 
declaration of rfc_lock in arch/powerpc/platforms/chrp/chrp.h

IIRC, on CHRP LongTrail, NVRAM was inherited from CHRP's Mac ancestry,
not from CHRP's PC ancestry, and thus NVRAM is not the one in the
mc146818-compatible RTC.

http://users.telenet.be/geertu/Linux/PPC/DeviceTree.html confirms that,
showing that nvram is a different device node than rtc.

Yes, what I missed was the ifdefery in drivers/char/nvram.c that makes
it a completely different driver on both platforms. I tend to forget
about that as reading this driver is not a pleasant experience. I would
really like to get rid of the x86 part which would in turn allow to
remove the global rtc_lock spinlock on all architectures.
