Subject: [PATCH 2/2] selftests: ntsync: test absolute MONOTONIC waits under time namespaces
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2026 14:54:02 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260720175402.44338-3-ivanrwcm25@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260720175402.44338-1-ivanrwcm25@gmail.com>
Cover the timens conversion in ntsync_schedule(): with a negative
CLOCK_MONOTONIC offset, a 100 ms absolute wait must not return
immediately against the host clock.
Suggested-by: Maoyi Xie <maoyixie.tju@gmail.com>
