From fa90fd4f2f4aab4da25bb0c89cb408de36443a25 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vincent Palatin Date: Tue, 7 Aug 2012 17:03:40 -0700 Subject: rtc: erase CMOS memory after power failure When a power failure happens on the RTC rail, the CMOS memory (including the RTC registers) is filled with garbage. So, we erase the full first bank (112 bytes) and we reset the RTC date to the build date. To test, disconnect the CMOS battery to produce an RTC power failure, then boot the machine and observe the RTC date is the build date using "cat /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/date" Change-Id: I684bb3ad5079f96825555d4ed84dc0f7914e9884 Signed-off-by: Vincent Palatin Reviewed-on: http://review.coreboot.org/1697 Reviewed-by: Marc Jones Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) --- Makefile.inc | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) (limited to 'Makefile.inc') diff --git a/Makefile.inc b/Makefile.inc index 3f079cd..7d32a96 100644 --- a/Makefile.inc +++ b/Makefile.inc @@ -179,6 +179,10 @@ $(obj)/build.h: .xcompile printf "#define COREBOOT_VERSION \"$(KERNELVERSION)\"\n" >> $(obj)/build.ht printf "#define COREBOOT_EXTRA_VERSION \"$(COREBOOT_EXTRA_VERSION)\"\n" >> $(obj)/build.ht printf "#define COREBOOT_BUILD \"`LANG= date`\"\n" >> $(obj)/build.ht + printf "#define COREBOOT_BUILD_YEAR `LANG= date +"%-y"`\n" >> $(obj)/build.ht + printf "#define COREBOOT_BUILD_MONTH `LANG= date +"%-m"` \n" >> $(obj)/build.ht + printf "#define COREBOOT_BUILD_DAY `LANG= date +"%-d"`\n" >> $(obj)/build.ht + printf "#define COREBOOT_BUILD_WEEKDAY `LANG= date +"%-u"`\n" >> $(obj)/build.ht printf "#define COREBOOT_DMI_DATE \"`LANG= date +"%m/%d/%Y"`\"\n" >> $(obj)/build.ht printf "\n" >> $(obj)/build.ht printf "#define COREBOOT_COMPILER \"$(shell LANG= $(CC) --version | head -n1)\"\n" >> $(obj)/build.ht -- cgit v1.1
