Oh, fun. Good to know, then. (I just use NTP, always…)

Yeah, but devtmpfs creates /dev/rtc0 just fine ;-)

They are better than having to use udev, I guess.
Probably should place the symlink for /dev/rtc in there, too…
on the other hand, nope, not needed:

open("/dev/rtc", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE)  = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
SYS_333(0x8000520d, 0x20000, 0, 0x8000520d, 0) = -1072368512
SYS_333(0x2d, 0xc00182e0, 0x80000724, 0, 0) = -1072368512
SYS_333(0, 0xc00182e0, 0x800007d7, 0, 0) = -1072368512
SYS_333(0x2, 0x8000520d, 0, 0, 0)       = -1072368512
SYS_333(0x2, 0, 0, 0x8000668e, 0)       = -1072368512
open("/dev/rtc0", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3

(What’s SYS_333, and why does strace not know it?)
