rtc with ds1339
« on: June 28, 2011, 06:25:34 AM »
Hello,
i need a kernel module or an extension for changing the time in ds 1339 (I2C) chip. I found some source:
http://www.daum-electronic.de/de/download/GPL/GPL/modules
I have problems to compile them for my micro core.
Please help

Hi ml

In the Makefile there is a compiler directive for an ARM processor. Try removing arm-9dtmi-linux-gnu-gcc
and -O5 from the file and  add  -march=i486 -mtune=i686 -Os  in their place.

Yes, ignore my last post, it was incorrect.

The original Makefile looks like this:
Code: [Select]
all: clean rtc_ds1339.o

rtc_ds1339.o: rtc_ds1339.c
arm-9dtmi-linux-gnu-gcc -O5 -ffast-math -fexpensive-optimizations -Wall -DLINUX -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -I. -c rtc_ds1339.c

clean:
@echo 'Removing all objects !'
-rm -f *.o
but should probably look more like this:
Code: [Select]
all: clean rtc_ds1339.o

rtc_ds1339.o: rtc_ds1339.c
i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -O5 -ffast-math -fexpensive-optimizations -Wall -DLINUX -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -I. -c rtc_ds1339.c

clean:
@echo 'Removing all objects !'
-rm -f *.o
Unfortunately the result is a lot of errors. The files not found cause many more errors and warnings.
Code: [Select]
i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -O5 -ffast-math -fexpensive-optimizations -Wall -DLINUX -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -I. -c rtc_ds1339.c

The files are from 2004 and I think there were some changes made to the kernel tree that are causing
some of these errors. I know config.h was removed. I think it was replaced with autoconfig.h. The others
may be because they were moved in the kernel or because of a missing or incorrect include directive
in the makefile. The -O5 also doesn't look correct, I don't think it goes up to 5. Since this is a module
there are some directives used that I'm not familiar with.

Bottom line is I'm in over my head at this point. Maybe someone more capable in this area can provide
a few pointers and set me straight.
