[Xen-devel] [PATCH 3/3] x86/xen: sync the CMOS RTC as well as the Xen wallclock

[David Vrabel <david.vrabel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@xxxxxxxxxx>

If NTP is used in dom0 and it is synchronized to its clock source,
then the kernel will periodically synchronize the Xen wallclock with
the system time.  Updates to the Xen wallclock do not persist across
reboots, so also synchronize the CMOS RTC (as on bare metal).
