[RFC][PATCH] Time: Experimental improved ntp error accounting for TOD work

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



All, 
	This includes suggestions from Roman on improving the NTP error 
accounting done by the timekeeping core. Currently this is a very ugly 
patch, that hurts the code's readability (which should not to be taken 
as a slight against Roman, this is my own interpretation of his 
suggestion) but I wanted to get it out for review and comment. I've 
added lots of comments just to document my current concerns that will 
be removed in the future, as well a number of spots where Roman's NTP 
patches will hopefully be used.

The patch drops the ntp_adj value, letting the code adjust the 
clocksource multiplier directly, and also uses clock shifted 
nanoseconds in a few places.

Unfortunately this patch does not apply against the current -mm tree, so
you will have to grab the full patchset from:
http://sr71.net/~jstultz/tod/ to play with this.

Anyway, I'm kicking it out because I don't want to sit on it any 
longer. I think I've got the bugs out of it, but I'm sure it needs more 
work.

Flame on.

thanks
-john
