--- Begin Message ---Package: util-linux Version: 2.12r-19etch1 Severity: normal File: /sbin/hwclock Hello, I have a system here with an rtc that knows when it's not set up correctly and so ioctl(fd, RTC_RD_TIME, &rtc_time); returns -1, errno=EINVAL. The same holds for ioctl(fd, RTC_UIE_ON, 0); It's a pity that hwclock first tries to read the clock when running hwclock --systohc --noadjfile --utc and exits as this fails. I cannot see a reason to read first in that case. Probably the call to synchronize_to_clock_tick() in manipulate_clock should be skipped if ((set || systohc) && !noadjfile) and read_hardware_clock(...) should be substituted by: if (show || adjust || hctosys || !noadjfile) read_hardware_clock(...) else hclock_valid = FALSE Note that I didn't test if this change even compiles.
