rtcwake [options]
Enter a system sleep state until a specified wakeup time.
Options:
-a, --auto reads the clock mode from adjust file (default)
-A, --adjfile <file> specifies the path to the adjust file
the default is /etc/adjtime
--date <timestamp> date time of timestamp to wake
-d, --device <device> select rtc device (rtc0|rtc1|...)
-n, --dry-run does everything, but suspend
-l, --local RTC uses local timezone
--list-modes list available modes
-m, --mode <mode> standby|mem|... sleep mode
-s, --seconds <seconds> seconds to sleep

-a, --auto | Read the clock mode (whether the hardware clock is set to UTC or local time) from the adjtime file, where hwclock(8) stores that information. | help + man |
-A, --adjfile file | specifies the path to the adjust file the default is /etc/adjtime | help + man |
--date timestamp | Set the wakeup time to the value of this timestamp. | help + man |
-d, --device device | Use the specified device instead of rtc0 as realtime clock. | help + man |
-n, --dry-run | This option does everything apart from actually setting up the alarm, suspending the system, or waiting for the alarm. | help + man |
-l, --local | Assume that the hardware clock is set to local time, regardless of the contents of the adjtime file. | help + man |
--list-modes | List available --mode option arguments. | help + man |
-m, --mode mode | Go into the given standby state. | help + man |
-s, --seconds seconds | Set the wakeup time to seconds in the future from now. | help + man |
-t, --time time_t | Set the wakeup time to the absolute time time_t. | help + man |
-u, --utc | Assume that the hardware clock is set to UTC (Universal Time Coordinated), regardless of the contents of the adjtime file. | help + man |
-v, --verbose | verbose messages | help + man |
-h, --help | Display help text and exit. | help + man |
-V, --version | Display version and exit. | help + man |
