Ohhhhh! I see. I clearly didn't look closely enough at the whole register description in the user manual. I think you've got it right, then. I think this would be more obvious if you added a comment and you set both the high and low bits at the same time. AKA: + /* Force an update of the shadowed registers right now */ + ret = regmap_update_bits(rk808->regmap, RK808_RTC_CTRL_REG, + BIT_RTC_CTRL_REG_RTC_GET_TIME, + BIT_RTC_CTRL_REG_RTC_GET_TIME); + if (ret) { + dev_err(dev, "Failed to update bits rtc_ctrl: %d\n", ret); + return ret; + } + + ret = regmap_update_bits(rk808->regmap, RK808_RTC_CTRL_REG, + BIT_RTC_CTRL_REG_RTC_GET_TIME, + BIT_RTC_CTRL_REG_RTC_GET_TIME); + if (ret) { + dev_err(dev, "Failed to update bits rtc_ctrl: %d\n", ret); + return ret; + } ...doing them both at the same time makes it obvious that this is a one-time copy triggered by the "rising edge" of this bit. It also means you don't need any "goto" for error handling. -Doug -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
