Subject: [07/27] timekeeping: add arch_offset hook to ktime_get functions
Date: Wed, 07 Dec 2011 08:54:40 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111207165601.008227165@clark.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20111207165611.GA19872@kroah.com>
2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Hector Palacios <hector.palacios@digi.com>
commit d004e024058a0eaca097513ce62cbcf978913e0a upstream.
ktime_get and ktime_get_ts were calling timekeeping_get_ns()
but later they were not calling arch_gettimeoffset() so architectures
using this mechanism returned 0 ns when calling these functions.
This happened for example when running Busybox's ping which calls
syscall(__NR_clock_gettime, CLOCK_MONOTONIC, ts) which eventually
calls ktime_get. As a result the returned ping travel time was zero.
