 Hi

 Hello,

quoted

 In Documentation/rtc.txt, there is a description of the sysfs
 interface which could be moved to Documentation/ABI.

 Would such a change be useful?

 The ABI documentation format looks like the following:

 What: (the full sysfs path of the attribute)
 Date: (date of creation)
 KernelVersion: (kernel version it first showed up in)
 Contact: (primary contact)
 Description: (long description on usage)

 I am doing this in an exercise to move sysfs ABI interfaces (which are
 documented) to their right place i.e. in Documentation/ABI along with the rest.

 Do I understand right? Are you want to make the rtc.txt part the same format as ABI folder?
 for example create to RTC folder and add /dev/rtc what, date, kernelversion, contact right?

Yes I mentioned just the sysfs interface. But both ioctl and sysfs interface
should be there in Documentation/ABI. There could a new file called sysfs-rtc in
Documentation/ABI/stable with both these interfaces.

 This can be a good idea and I can help.

Sure thanks. I can maybe send a patch with these changes.

One question: who should be the primary contact for this ABI?
