Hello All,
The same u-boot/kernel/rootfs on fsl_mp8313E RDB REVA 2, DS1337 RTC
chip can work,
but on sl_mp8313E RDB REVA 3, it doesn't work, its time don't change.
This RTC chip specific bad behavior on sl_mp8313E RDB REVA 3 as follows:
(1) On U-Boot (from Freescale), run command:
=> i2c md 0x68 0x0
0000: 32 33 10 04 20 89 08 84 00 20 53 00 42 16 18 80 23.. .... S.B...
after a while
=> i2c md 0x68 0x0
0000: 32 33 10 04 20 89 08 84 00 20 53 00 42 16 18 80 23.. .... S.B...
The first value(second value) is unchanged always, but on fsl_mp8313E
RDB REVA 2, it changes.
meanwhile, we can change this value through i2c nm 0x68 0xX on
fsl_mp8313E RDB REVA 3.
SO the core of this problem is the time always keeps same.
(2) during Linux kernel bootup, we can see:

ds1307 0-0068: setting the system clock to 2008-09-20 10:33:32 (1221906812)
it indicates can read and write RTC chip through I2C. but after system
boot up, we can see the time always same.
After adjusting these configurations on U-Boot environment according
to fsl_mp8313E RDB REVA 2, it still doesn't work.
Who can give me some advice or suggestion ? currently I doubt this
hardware, but what a shame I have only one fsl_mp8313E RDB REVA 3 board,
can't do comparison experiment.
Thanks in advance.
