[PATCH 0/3] Apple Silicon SMC RTC driver

From: Sven Peter
Date: Tue Aug 12 2025 - 14:30:03 EST


Hi,

Now that the core mfd device has been upstream I've prepared one of the
child drivers that is still missing: RTC support.
This driver is required to read and set the hardware clock and requires
a reference to an additional NVMEM cell to store the offset and thus
requires a device tree node.

The series applies cleanly to 6.17-rc1 but is based on a tree with three
additional commits to add the SMC nodes to the DTS which didn't make it
into 6.17. You can just ignore that and pretend this is based on
6.17-rc1 since I'll take the dts update through my tree anyway.

Next to this SMC child driver we're still working on an input/misc HID
driver for the powerbutton, a hwmon driver for the various sensors and a
power-supply driver to manage the batteries.

Best,

Sven
