After the system clock is initialized (eg, on boot), the hardware clock has little to do with ongoing time operations.
I don't believe that's true.Using the kernel counters for timekeeping is pretty inaccurate (lots of interrupts can stall the kernel counters).
I believe that most things actually query the hardware clock when asked for time of day.
