     21 How to Run
     22 ----------
     23 
     24        The tests assume the rtc device node to be "/dev/rtc". If you have a
     25 different node run the test with the name of the node as a parameter.
     26 
     27 Eg. If your node is /dev/rtc0, then run the test as
     28 
     29        $ ./rtc-test /dev/rtc0
