See previous replies.

What's tm64? 

This function is converting time64 to rtc_time. So the proper function
name is: rtc_time64_to_tm

Can you see the difference?

We already adjusted time to a value which is less than 24 * 3600,
i.e. it fits nicely into a long on 32bit. So we can avoid the whole
div_s64 business and simply do:

	unsigned int month, year;
+	unsigned long secs;
	int days;

-	days = time / 86400;
- 	time -= (unsigned int) days * 86400;
+	days = div_s64(time, 86400);
+	secs = time - (unsigned int) days * 86400;

And change the rest which uses time to:

-	tm->tm_hour = time / 3600;
+	tm->tm_hour = secs / 3600;

Sigh.
