14 /* IMPORTANT: the RTC only stores whole seconds. It is arbitrary
15 * whether it stores the most close value or the value with partial
16 * seconds truncated. However, it is important that we use it to store
17 * the truncated value. This is because otherwise it is necessary,
18 * in an rtc sync function, to read both xtime.tv_sec and
19 * xtime.tv_nsec. On some processors (i.e. ARM), an atomic read
20 * of >32bits is not possible. So storing the most close value would
21 * slow down the sync API. So here we have the truncated value and
22 * the best guess is to add 0.5s.
