[lxc-users] Can a container modify the host rtc?

[Paul Giordano]

Running LXD 2.0.3 

I'm trying to have a container be an ntp server, but the container gets an EPERM trying to set the hw clock: 

clock_settime(CLOCK_REALTIME, {1469546956, 258938000}) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) 
adjtimex(0x7ffffb0d6bf0) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) 
settimeofday({1469546956, 258938}, NULL) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) 
settimeofday({1469546956, 0}, NULL) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) 

Is there a way to configure the container to allow access to /dev/rtc0?
