I'm using an MPC885 with the linux kernel rtc emulator driver. Because I need
to wake a process every second, exactly synchronized with the rtc, I'm using
the following code snippet:
____________________________________________
/* Turn on update interrupts (one per second) */
retval = ioctl(fd, RTC_UIE_ON, 0);
if (retval == -1) {
perror("ioctl");
exit(errno);
}
while (1)
{
/* This read will block */
retval = read(fd, &data, sizeof(unsigned long));
if (retval == -1) {
perror("read");
exit(errno);
}
/* Do something exactly synchronized with RTC */
/* ...... */
}
