With the recently introduced hrtimer based trigger we have a fully functional replacement for the RTC timer trigger that is more flexible and has a better interface to instantiate and manage the trigger instances. The RTC trigger timer could only be instantiated using platform devices which makes it unsuitable for modern devicetree based platforms, while the hrtimer trigger has a configfs based interface that allows creating and deletion of triggers at runtime. In addition since a few years the periodic RTC timer is internally always emulated using a hrtimer using the hrtimer interface directly will yield the same timing precision. So using the RTC timer won't have any advantages on this front either. There is also no evidence that the periodic RTC trigger is currently actually being used on any system. So considering all this remove the driver. Also remove the related item from the TODO list.

Provides support for using a Blackfin timer as IIO triggers.

If unsure, say N (but it's safe to say "Y").

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the

module will be called iio-trig-bfin-timer.
