[PATCH v5 4/5] rtc: pcf85363: add oscillator offset calibration support
From: Lakshay Piplani
Date: Thu Sep 10 2026 - 01:10:49 EST
Expose the oscillator offset register of PCF85263/PCF85363 through the
read_offset and set_offset rtc_class_ops callbacks, so userspace can
apply frequency correction for drift compensation.
The offset is in parts per billion (ppb). CTRL_OFFSET is a signed 8-bit
step count whose size depends on the OFFM bit: 2170 ppb/step normal and
2034.5 ppb/step fast, the latter computed with an x10-scaled constant to
keep the arithmetic integer. Values are range-checked before that scaling
so the multiply cannot overflow, and out-of-range values are rejected
with -ERANGE rather than clamped.

V4 -> V5:
- Report and accept the offset in ppb (per the RTC offset ABI) using the
step selected by OFFM (2170 ppb, or 2034.5 ppb fast via x10 scaling).
- Range-check before the x10 scaling to avoid overflow, and reject
out-of-range values with -ERANGE instead of clamping.
V3 -> V4:
- No changes in v4.
V2 -> V3:
- Split into separate patches as suggested:
- Battery switch-over detection.
- Timestamp recording for TS pin and battery switch-over events.
- Offset calibration.
- Watchdog timer (to be reviewed by watchdog maintainers).
- Dropped Alarm2 support
- Switched to rtc_add_group() for sysfs attributes
V1 -> V2:
- Watchdog related changes due to removal of vendor specific properties
from device tree
* remove vendor DT knobs (enable/timeout/stepsize/repeat)
* use watchdog_init_timeout (with 10s default)
* derive clock_sel from final timeout
* default, repeat=true (repeat mode)
- Fixed uninitalised warning on 'ret' (reported by kernel test robot)
- Use dev_dbg instead of dev_info for debug related print messages
- Minor cleanup and comments.
