I can't make sense of the output of your test: On Thu, Feb 12, 2015 at 08:58:19AM -0500, Prarit Bhargava wrote: > [ 942.952833] time_state [1] change from TIME_OK to TIME_INS > > Fri Feb 13 18:59:51 2015 + 318126 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:51 2015 + 818167 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:52 2015 + 318208 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:52 2015 + 818248 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:53 2015 + 318290 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:53 2015 + 818331 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:54 2015 + 318372 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:54 2015 + 818413 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:55 2015 + 318454 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:55 2015 + 818495 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:56 2015 + 318534 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:56 2015 + 818575 us TIME_INS Why did the test program print the above lines? It's supposed to sleep until 3 seconds prior to the midnight: /* Wake up 3 seconds before leap */ ts.tv_sec = next_leap - 3; ts.tv_nsec = 0; while(clock_nanosleep(CLOCK_REALTIME, TIMER_ABSTIME, &ts, NULL)) printf("Something woke us up, returning to sleep\n"); > Fri Feb 13 18:59:57 2015 + 318617 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:57 2015 + 818660 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:58 2015 + 318702 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:58 2015 + 818744 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:59 2015 + 318785 us TIME_INS > Fri Feb 13 18:59:59 2015 + 818837 us TIME_INS > > [ 952.953143] time_state [4] change from TIME_INS to TIME_OOP > [ 952.953150] Clock: inserting leap second 23:59:60 UTC > [ 953.299905] process_adj_status: insert_leap_sec[1223] setting time_state > back > to TIME_OK [1, 1] <<< adjtimex() call every 1/2 second > [ 953.299913] time_state [9] change from TIME_OOP to TIME_OK 2) The only place where the test program sets STA_PLL is in clear_time_state(); It clears it right after that. clear_time_state() is not called inside the while "(now < next_leap+2)" loop, except in the SIGINT/SIGKILL handler. Did you send signals to the program at this point? If not, I can't understand how the status went from STA_PLL to !STA_PLL and thus why time_state went to TIME_OK -- Jiri Bohac <jbo...@suse.cz> SUSE Labs, SUSE CZ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
