== Accessing the rtc device ==
Setting the RTC device as <code>rtc0</code> lets the system clock be synchronized. The related section can be added to the device tree as an ''alias'': <pre class="board-terminal"> aliases { /* ds3231 is our default rtc dev (rtc0) */ rtc0 = &ds3231; rtc1 = &snvs_rtc; };</pre> The RTC device is available as <code>/dev/rtc1rtc0</code> device and the related time can be read using the <code>hwclock</code> command:
<pre class="workstation-terminal">
root@desk-mx8mp123456789:~# dmesg | grep rtc1rtc0[ 56.794607949783] rtc-ds1307 5-0068: registered as rtc1rtc0root@desk-mx8mp:~# hwclock -f /dev/rtc1rtc0
2024-03-06 16:18:28.182912+01:00
root@desk-mx8mp:~#
</pre>
Now the <code>date</code> command shows the system clock synchronized at any reboot.
