This driver makes the time from HID sensors (hubs) which are offering

Currently the time can only be read. Setting the time must be done
through sending a report, which currently isn't supported by
hid-sensor-hub.

It is necessary that all values like year, month etc, are send as
8bit values (1 byte each) and all of them in 1 report. Also the
spec HUTRR39b doesn't define the range of the year field, we
tread it as 0 - 99 because that's what most RTCs I know about are
offering.

I don't think we should register a IIO device for this. Just an RTC device
should be fully sufficient.


You would have to implement all the used services hid-sensor-hub offers in the rtc-driver again.
