I thought I had a comment about this somewhere in code... O_o Must have been in some development branch I had :/ Anyways, setting the RTC counter may cause watchdog to trigger. It is not further explained why but I would guess watchdog uses RTC counter to check if it should've been pinged already. So RTC needs to disable watch dog for the duration of hwclock setting and enable it again after the new time is set. I can add a comment about this to MFD driver if it helps :) Br, Matti Vaittinen -- Matti Vaittinen, Linux device drivers ROHM Semiconductors, Finland SWDC Kiviharjunlenkki 1E 90220 OULU FINLAND ~~~ "I don't think so," said Rene Descartes.
