But if it is, then you have an issue that nINT will be pulled low until the user changes the battery, meaning that you will not get any alarm interrupt anymore, possibly leading to a system that is not waking up anymore. > rtc-pcf2127-i2c 2-0051: low voltage detected, check/replace RTC battery. > You get that message every 11minutes because you are using ntp and systohc (which I would discourage you to use as it is inaccurate). > What kind of issues did you find with BLIE enabled? > > Flavio > -- Alexandre Belloni, Bootlin Embedded Linux and Kernel engineering https://bootlin.com
