Interesting. I wonder if this is needed for reading the RTC for the
time on boot, and writing it back on shutdown - which I would have
thought too generic to have left out on any machine? Or is this perhaps
retrieving at boot then restoring at shutdown some other system-specific
information in NVRAM?
If the latter, then the usage in /sys/dev/acpi_support/acpi_ibm.c
revealed below might illustrate another way of dealing with this?
% find /sys/ -type f -exec egrep -H 'rtcin|writertc' {} \; | grep -v drm_mode_set_crtcinfo
shows everything using the rtcin() and writertc() functions, implemented
for x86 at least in /sys/x86/isa/atrtc.c .. but I have no idea whether
you can access those functions from where / when you're tinkering here.
Yours looks more likely portable for upstream acpica, but it also looks
potentially quite dangerous 'in the wrong hands' :)
cheers, Ian
