Benjamin Mahler created MESOS-7318:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Libprocess delays and timers should be undisturbed by
system clock jumps.
Key: MESOS-7318
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-7318
Project: Mesos
Issue Type: Bug
Components: libprocess
Reporter: Benjamin Mahler
Currently, libprocess timers / delays / timeouts are affected by system clock
jumps because they do not use a monotonic clock as a reference point.
Since these require relative timing, we can use a monotonic clock as the
reference point. We also need the approach to be affected by clock manipulation
at the libprocess level (i.e. {{Clock::advance(...)}} and
{{Clock::update(...)}}) for testing purposes.
The current recommendation is for users to use NTP with skewing applied to
adjust for leaps, e.g.:

I thought we already had a ticket for this but can't seem to find it.
