Hence we have implemented the read_persistent_clock() function overriding the one defined in kernel/time/timekeeping.c. What we observed was that after doing multiple sleep/wakeup sequences, the time reported by RTC and gettimeofday was drifting. After about 10 iterations the gettimeofday was lagging by about one second. Subsequently the lag only increased.

Hmm, should I look forward for linux-based gps?
