[Xenomai-help] CLOCK_REALTIME initialization

[Theo Veenker <Theo.Veenker@domain.hid>]

Hi,

I understand in the Xenomai posix skin CLOCK_REALTIME gets initialized
on startup of the system and then left alone. There is a problem if the
system's hwclock is storing local time as opposed to UTC. In this case
the Xenomai clock gets initialized with local time instead of UTC.
I use local time in the hwclock because my systems are dual-boot with
MS Windows XP and XP aparently still can't properly deal with hwclock
set to UTC.

What I would like to do is tell Xenomai to reinitialize CLOCK_REALTIME
at some point *after* Linux has initialized its own clock from the
hwclock. As clock_settime() isn't yet supported (in 2.3) I can't do
this now. Will it be in 2.5, or is there at present another way of
reinitializing CLOCK_REALTIME?

Regards,
Theo
