Description


ARM PrimeCell PL031 Real Time Clock Driver unit

The PL031 is a simple memory mapped Real Time Clock (RTC) device that supports a single 32-bit time counter based on the Unix time format which starts at 1 Jan 1970 and runs out at 19 Jan 2038.

The device also includes a single alarm value which can trigger an interrupt when the selected time is reached.

This driver currently does not support reading or setting the alarm value.

Constants



PL031 specific constants PL031_*
PL031_RTC_DESCRIPTION = 'ARM PrimeCell PL031 Real Time Clock'; Description of PL031 device
 
PL031_MIN_TIME = TIME_TICKS_TO_1970; Time starts at 01/01/1970 00:00:00 (MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS)
PL031_MAX_TIME = 137919572470000000; Time ends at 19/1/2038 03:14:07 (MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS)


PL031 RTC control register PL031_RTC_CR_*
PL031_RTC_CR_EN = (1 shl 0); If set to 1, the RTC is enabled. Once it is enabled, any writes to this bit have no effect on the RTC until a system reset. A read returns the status of the RTC.


PL031 RTC interrupt mask set and clear register PL031_RTC_IMSC_*
PL031_RTC_IMSC_INTR_SET = (1 shl 0);  
PL031_RTC_IMSC_INTR_CLEAR = (0 shl 0);  


PL031 RTC raw interrupt status register PL031_RTC_RIS_*
PL031_RTC_RIS_INTR = (1 shl 0);  


PL031 RTC masked interrupt status register PL031_RTC_MIS_*
PL031_RTC_MIS_INTR = (1 shl 0);  


PL031 RTC interrupt clear register PL031_RTC_ICR_*
PL031_RTC_ICR_INTR = (1 shl 0);
