34 * This function fills in @tm with the current RTC time, as adjusted
35 * by @offset (for example, if @offset is 3600 then the returned time/date

39 * to find the time/date value that they should return to the guest
40 * when it reads the RTC registers.
42 * The behaviour of the clock whose value this function returns will
43 * depend on the -rtc command line option passed by the user.
