2017-03-21rtc: utilize new cdev_device_add helper functionLogan Gunthorpe
Mostly straightforward, but we had to remove the rtc_dev_add/del_device functions as they split up the cdev_add and the device_add. Doing this also revealed that there was likely another subtle bug: seeing cdev_add was done after device_register, the cdev probably was not ready before device_add when the uevent occurs. This would race with userspace, if it tried to use the device directly after the uevent. This is fixed just by using the new helper function. Another weird thing is this driver would, in some error cases, call cdev_add() without calling cdev_init. This patchset corrects this by avoiding calling cdev_add if the devt is not set.

2015-09-05rtc: switch to using is_visible() to control sysfs attributesDmitry Torokhov
Instead of creating wakealarm attribute manually, after the device has been registered, let's rely on facilities provided by the attribute groups to control which attributes are visible and which are not. This allows to create all needed attributes at once, at the same time that we register RTC class device.

2007-05-08rtc: update to class device removal patchesDavid Brownell
Fix a goof in the revised classdev support for RTCs: make sure the /dev node info is ready before the device is registered, not after. Otherwise the /sys/class/rtc/rtcN/dev attribute won't be created and then udev won't have the information it needs to create the /dev/rtcN node.

2007-05-08rtc: simplified /proc/driver/rtc handlingDavid Brownell
This simplifies the RTC procfs support by removing the class_interface that hooks it into the rtc core. If it's configured, then sysfs support is now part of the RTC core, and is never a separate module. It also removes the class_interface hook, now that its last remaining user is gone. (That API is usable only with a "struct class_device".) It's another step towards being able to remove "struct class_device".

2007-05-08rtc: rtc interfaces don't use class_deviceDavid Brownell
This patch removes class_device from the programming interface that the RTC framework exposes to the rest of the kernel. Now an rtc_device is passed, which is more type-safe and streamlines all the relevant code.

2007-05-08rtc: remove /sys/class/rtc-dev/*David Brownell
This simplifies the /dev support by removing a superfluous class_device (the /sys/class/rtc-dev stuff) and the class_interface that hooks it into the rtc core. Accordingly, if it's configured then /dev support is now part of the RTC core, and is never a separate module. It's another step towards being able to remove "struct class_device".
