[RFC][PATCH - 8/13] NTP cleanup: Integrate second_overflow() logic

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

 



All
	This patch removes the second_overflow() logic integrating it into the
ntp_advance() function. This provides a single interface to advance the
internal NTP state machine.

Any comments or feedback would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
