if i disable "timer support within iio" and RTC-support in kernel i get
ERROR: "rtc_irq_set_state" [drivers/industrialio/industrialio.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "rtc_class_open" [drivers/industrialio/industrialio.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "rtc_irq_unregister" [drivers/industrialio/industrialio.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "rtc_irq_register" [drivers/industrialio/industrialio.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "rtc_irq_set_freq" [drivers/industrialio/industrialio.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "rtc_class_close" [drivers/industrialio/industrialio.ko] undefined!

my .config:
CONFIG_INDUSTRIALIO=m
CONFIG_INDUSTRIALIO_PTIMER_BOARDINFO=y
CONFIG_IIO_RING_BUFFER=y
# CONFIG_IIO_TIMERS is not set
CONFIG_IIO_SW_RING=m
#
# Accelerometers
#
CONFIG_LIS3L02DQ=m
#
# Analog to digital convertors
#
CONFIG_MAX1363=m
#
# Inertial Measurement Units
#
# CONFIG_ADIS16350 is not set

or do i get something wrong?

sounds good!
