Subject: [RFC][patch 09/12] add xtime_shift and ntp_error_shift to struct timekeeper
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2009 15:41:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090729134231.269077552@de.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20090729134125.313191633@de.ibm.com

[-- Attachment #1: timekeeper-shift.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4897 bytes --]

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

The xtime_nsec value in the timekeeper structure is shifted by a few
bits to improve precision. This happens to be the same value as the
clock->shift. To improve readability add xtime_shift to the timekeeper
and use it instead of the clock->shift. Likewise add ntp_error_shift
and replace all (NTP_SCALE_SHIFT - clock->shift) expressions.
