[PATCH 4.8 12/92] ARC: timer: rtc: implement read loop in "C" vs. inline asm

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 922cc171998ac3dbe74d57011ef7ed57e9b0d7df upstream.

The current code doesn't even compile as somehow the inline assembly
can't see the register names defined as ARC_RTC_*
I'm pretty sure It worked when I first got it merged, but the tools were
definitely different then.

So better to write this in "C" anyways.
