+What:		/dev/rtcX
+Date:		April 2005
+KernelVersion:	2.6.12
+Contact:	linux-rtc@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+		The ioctl interface to drivers for real-time clocks (RTCs).
+		Following actions are supported:
+
+		* RTC_RD_TIME, RTC_SET_TIME: Read or set the RTC time. Time
+		  format is a Gregorian calendar date and 24 hour wall clock
+		  time.
+
+		* RTC_AIE_ON, RTC_AIE_OFF: Enable or disable the alarm interrupt
+		  for RTCs that support alarms
+
+		* RTC_ALM_READ, RTC_ALM_SET: Read or set the alarm time for
+		  RTCs that support alarms. Can be set upto 24 hours in the
+		  future. Requires a separate RTC_AIE_ON call to enable the
+		  alarm interrupt. (Prefer to use RTC_WKALM_*)
+
+		* RTC_WKALM_RD, RTC_WKALM_SET: For RTCs that support a more
+		  powerful interface, which can issue alarms beyond 24 hours and
+		  enable IRQs in the same request.
+
+		* RTC_PIE_ON, RTC_PIE_OFF: Enable or disable the periodic
+		  interrupt for RTCs that support periodic interrupts.
+
+		* RTC_UIE_ON, RTC_UIE_OFF: Enable or disable the update
+		  interrupt for RTCs that support it.
+
+		* RTC_IRQP_READ, RTC_IRQP_SET: Read or set the frequency for
+		  periodic interrupts for RTCs that support periodic interrupts.
+		  Requires a separate RTC_PIE_ON call to enable the periodic
+		  interrupts.
+
+		* RTC_VL_READ: Read the voltage inputs status of the RTC when
+		  supported. The value is a bit field of RTC_VL_*, giving the
+		  status of the main and backup voltages.
+
+		* RTC_VL_CLEAR: Clear the voltage status of the RTC. Some RTCs
+		  need user interaction when the backup power provider is
+		  replaced or charged to be able to clear the status.
+
+		The ioctl() calls supported by the older /dev/rtc interface are
+		also supported by the newer RTC class framework. However,
+		because the chips and systems are not standardized, some PC/AT
+		functionality might not be provided. And in the same way, some
+		newer features -- including those enabled by ACPI -- are exposed
+		by the RTC class framework, but can't be supported by the older
+		driver.
