Hi Kristian, Clock is still absolutely synchronous, but ptree error already persists. Other clocksources than kvm-clock have significant jitter. Unfortunally sks needs several peerings to get a reproduction of that problem.

I disabled ntp on guest, so kvm-clock is the only clock source. A reference clock (DCF) and systems clock are now absolutely synchronous (1 second resolution) Let's see if problem still persists.

Hi Michael My keyserver died this morning once again, or in other better words, sks-recon daemon is dead or PTree database is corrupt. First of all, I presume you have tried just rebuilding the ptree, but this is a recurring problem ? Marco Nenciarini wrote some interesting facts in a discission here in our mailinglist (31 Jan 2011) on subject keyserver.linux.it is changing IP: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/sks-devel/2011-01/msg00030.html But I can't follow him, waht he has done to solve his problem. May someone tell me, how I can fix this buig/problem? Post is relatively clear on that, I guess; As workaround for a bug in xen the clocksource of the virtual machine was set to jiffies, which isn't accurate enough for sks. id est he switched the clocksource of the kernel to another one (other than jiffies[1] - and perhaps another kernel freq?) You say that the machine is based on a virtual machine, is it still running as one? It might be timing problems related to the hypervisor (wouldn't be the first time I've heard of drifts on that) Anyhow, I'd check /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/ where I'd expect to see the files (i) available_clocksource, and (ii) current_clocksource. So if you cat current_clocksource you should see the current source. By default jiffies are used, but that can cause problems within a VM hypervisor in particular (which is why a few provide custom kernels for it). Adding more clocksources will require a bit of kernel (/module) compilations.
