The RTC has a valid bit in the seconds register that indicates whether power was lost since the pevious time set. This bit is currently read once at probe time, cached and updated with set_time. Howeever, caching the bit may prevent detecting power loss at runtime (which can happen if the RTC's supply is distinct from the the platform's). Writing the seconds register when setting time will clear the bit, so there should be no downside in reading the bit directly instead of caching it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
