Accessing the registers of the RTC block on Tegra requires the module clock to be enabled. This only works because the RTC module clock will be enabled by default during early boot. However, because the clock is unused, the CCF will disable it at late_init time. This causes the RTC to become unusable afterwards. This can easily be reproduced by trying to use the RTC: $ hwclock --rtc /dev/rtc1 This will hang the system. I ran into this by following up on a report by Martin Michlmayr that reboot wasn't working on Tegra210 systems. It turns out that the rtc-tegra driver's ->shutdown() implementation will hang the CPU, because of the disabled clock, before the system can be rebooted. What confused me for a while is that the same driver is used on prior Tegra generations where the hang can not be observed. However, as Peter De Schrijver pointed out, this is because on 32-bit Tegra chips the RTC clock is enabled by the tegra20_timer.c clocksource driver, which uses the RTC to provide a persistent clock. This code is never enabled on 64-bit Tegra because the persistent clock infrastructure does not exist on 64-bit ARM. The proper fix for this is to add proper clock handling to the RTC driver in order to ensure that the clock is enabled when the driver requires it. All device trees contain the clock already, therefore no additional changes are required.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
