Title:
  hwclock: fails to set time on glibc 2.31

Status in busybox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in busybox source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed
Status in busybox source package in Groovy:
  Fix Committed
Status in busybox package in Debian:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
   * With glibc 2.31, hwclock from busybox is unable to set the system time
     due to the changes in settimeofday behavior.

  [Test Case]
  * Run:
    sudo busybox hwclock -s

  * It should succeed in the fixed version

  [Where problems could occur]
  * The fix calls the originally called glibc function twice, instead of 
passing both non-NULL parameters at once. If this compiles there should be no 
other issue.

  [Original Bug Text]
  With glibc 2.31, hwclock from busybox is unable to set the system time
  due to the changes in settimeofday behavior.

  The problem has been reported upstream in [1] which also contains a
  patch.

  hwclock from busybox is important as it's used on the Raspberry Pi to set the 
system
  time when an RTC is present.

  This bug applies to focal and groovy.
