According to the datasheet(http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/swcs046q/swcs046q.pdf), the default value RTC_PWDN is 1 which means power down. The default values are loaded from the EEPROM with BOOT_MODE 0,1 pin connection. The RTC is disabled by default when BOOT_MODE = 00. The Craneboard has the BOOT_MODE 00. You may have other EEPROM settings, however the official datasheet shows the RTC block is off by default. Could you check the silicon version number? (0x80 register - JTAGVERNUM_REG) In my case, the read value is 0x01. > Probably on "AM3517 Craneboard", some code is running prior to the RTC > driver > which might be writing 1 on to this bit.

I've read the DEVCTRL register (0x3F) in mfd tps65910 driver as soon as the regmap registration is done, however RTC_PWDN is always 1. That means the RTC is disabled by default.
