| |
Hi guys,
In Linux 2.0.x there used to be a file called rtc.h in /linux/include/asm, which defined RTCGET/RTCSET for ioctl() stuff, i.e ioctl(rtc_fd, RTCGET, &rtc_tm). It's no longer true in 2.1.x, so what's the best way of doing this?
I'm surprised that compiled binaries from 2.0.x that uses this ioctl() function with RTCGET/RTCSET still works on 2.1.x though. Apparently it must be supported in the kernel then.
I've been looking at the mc146818rtc.h header, but I figure that this isn't the best way of doing things, since I want it to be portable to Alpha and Sparc.
Anyone care to tell me the best way of doing this?
I don't have the 2.0.x sources to hand, and rather than download the whole archive, I'd be glad if someone could send me rtc.h from the linux/asm-i386 in 2.0.x so I can look it over and see if I can write a legacy header file that I can use internally with some code I'm working upon.
