| 33 | + \brief Real-Time Clock (RTC) Management |
| 34 | + \ingroup timing |
| 35 | +
|
| 36 | + Provides an API for fetching and managing the date/time using |
| 37 | + the Dreamcast's real-time clock. All timestamps are in standard |
| 38 | + Unix format, with an epoch of January 1, 1970. Due to the fact |
| 39 | + that there is no time zone data on the RTC, all times are expected |
| 40 | + to be in the local time zone. |
| 41 | +
|
| 42 | + \note |
| 43 | + The RTC that is used by the DC is located on the AICA rather than SH4, |
| 44 | + presumably for power-efficiency reasons. Because of this, accessing |
| 45 | + it requires a trip over the G2 BUS, which is notoriously slow. |
| 46 | +
|
| 47 | + \note |
| 48 | + For reading the current date/time, you should favor the standard C, |
| 49 | + C++, or POSIX functions, as they are platform-indpendent and are |
| 50 | + calculating current time based on a cached boot time plus a delta |
| 51 | + that is maintained by the timer subsystem, rather than actually |
| 52 | + having to requery the RTC over the G2 BUS, so they are faster. |
| 53 | +
|
| 54 | + \warning |
| 55 | + Internally, the RTC's date/time is maintained using a 32-bit counter |
| 56 | + with an epoch of January 1, 1950 00:00. Because of this, the Dreamcast's |
| 57 | + Y2K and the last timestamp it can represent before rolling over is |
| 58 | + February 06 2086 06:28:15. |
