The interface is 1 register where +an alarm time (in seconds) is to be written. + +Required properties: +- compatible: should be "amlogic,meson-vrtc" +- reg: physical address for the alarm register + +The alarm register is a simple scratch register shared between the +application processors (AP) and the secure co-processor (SCP.) When +the AP suspends, the SCP will use the value of this register to +program an always-on timer before going sleep. When the timer expires, +the SCP will wake up and will then wake the AP. + +Example: + + vrtc: rtc@0a8 { + compatible = "amlogic,meson-vrtc"; + reg = <0x0 0x000a8 0x0 0x4>; + }; |
