[RFC][PATCH - 12/12] NTP cleanup: use ppm instead of unit adj returned by ntp_advance

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

 



All,
	This patch stops ntp_advance() from returning unit adjustments (ie:
nanoseconds). Instead the update_wall_time() function uses the ppm
adjustment from get_ntp_adjustment() which is then converted into a
nanosecond adjustment value.

Any comments or feedback would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
