* SHIFT_PLL is used as a dampening factor to define how much we
* adjust the frequency correction for a given offset in PLL mode.
* It also used in dampening the offset correction, to define how
* much of the current value in time_offset we correct for each
* second. Changing this value changes the stiffness of the ntp
* adjustment code. A lower value makes it more flexible, reducing
* NTP convergence time. A higher value makes it stiffer, increasing
* convergence time, but making the clock more stable.
*
* In David Mills' nanokernel reference implementation SHIFT_PLL is 4.
* However this seems to increase convergence time much too long.
*
* https://lists.ntp.org/pipermail/hackers/2008-January/003487.html
*
* In the above mailing list discussion, it seems the value of 4
* was appropriate for other Unix systems with HZ=100, and that
* SHIFT_PLL should be decreased as HZ increases. However, Linux's
* clock steering implementation is HZ independent.
*
* Through experimentation, a SHIFT_PLL value of 2 was found to allow
* for fast convergence (very similar to the NTPv3 code used prior to
* v2.6.19), with good clock stability.
*
*
* SHIFT_FLL is used as a dampening factor to define how much we
* adjust the frequency correction for a given offset in FLL mode.
* In David Mills' nanokernel reference implementation SHIFT_FLL is 2.
*
* MAXTC establishes the maximum time constant of the PLL.

time: remove obsolete CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST The first version of the ntp_interval/tick_length inconsistent usage patch was recently merged as bbe4d18ac2e058c56adb0cd71f49d9ed3216a405 http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=bbe4d18ac2e058c56adb0cd71f49d9ed3216a405 While the fix did greatly improve the situation, it was correctly pointed out by Roman that it does have a small bug: If the users change clocksources after the system has been running and NTP has made corrections, the correctoins made against the old clocksource will be applied against the new clocksource, causing error. The second attempt, which corrects the issue in the NTP_INTERVAL_LENGTH definition has also made it up-stream as commit e13a2e61dd5152f5499d2003470acf9c838eab84 http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e13a2e61dd5152f5499d2003470acf9c838eab84 Roman has correctly pointed out that CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST is calculated based on the PIT's frequency, and isn't really relevant to non-PIT driven clocksources (that is, clocksources other then jiffies and pit). This patch reverts both of those changes, and simply removes CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST. This does remove the granularity error correction for users of PIT and Jiffies clocksource users, but the granularity error but for the majority of users, it should be within the 500ppm range NTP can accommodate for. For systems that have granularity errors greater then 500ppm, the "ntp_tick_adj=" boot option can be used to compensate.

[PATCH] Provide an interface for getting the current tick length This provides an interface for arch code to find out how many nanoseconds are going to be added on to xtime by the next call to do_timer. The value returned is a fixed-point number in 52.12 format in nanoseconds. The reason for this format is that it gives the full precision that the timekeeping code is using internally. The motivation for this is to fix a problem that has arisen on 32-bit powerpc in that the value returned by do_gettimeofday drifts apart from xtime if NTP is being used. PowerPC is now using a lockless do_gettimeofday based on reading the timebase register and performing some simple arithmetic. (This method of getting the time is also exported to userspace via the VDSO.) However, the factor and offset it uses were calculated based on the nominal tick length and weren't being adjusted when NTP varied the tick length. Note that 64-bit powerpc has had the lockless do_gettimeofday for a long time now. It also had an extremely hairy routine that got called from the 32-bit compat routine for adjtimex, which adjusted the factor and offset according to what it thought the timekeeping code was going to do. Not only was this only called if a 32-bit task did adjtimex (i.e. not if a 64-bit task did adjtimex), it was also duplicating computations from kernel/timer.c and it wasn't clear that it was (still) correct. The simple solution is to ask the timekeeping code how long the current jiffy will be on each timer interrupt, after calling do_timer. If this jiffy will be a different length from the last one, we then need to compute new values for the factor and offset used in the lockless do_gettimeofday. In this way we can keep xtime and do_gettimeofday in sync, even when NTP is varying the tick length. Note that when adjtimex varies the tick length, it almost always introduces the variation from the next tick on. The only case I could see where adjtimex would vary the length of the current tick is when an old-style adjtime adjustment is being cancelled. (It's not clear to me why the adjustment has to be cancelled immediately rather than from the next tick on.) Thus I don't see any real need for a hook in adjtimex; the rare case of an old-style adjustment being cancelled can be fixed up at the next tick.
