Subject: [PATCH 5/6] timekeeping: Provide hrtimer update function
Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2012 18:43:24 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1341960205-56738-7-git-send-email-johnstul@us.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1341960205-56738-1-git-send-email-johnstul@us.ibm.com>

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

To finally fix the infamous leap second issue and other race windows
caused by functions which change the offsets between the various time
bases (CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME) we need a
function which atomically gets the current monotonic time and updates
the offsets of CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME with minimalistic
overhead. The previous patch which provides ktime_t offsets allows us
to make this function almost as cheap as ktime_get() which is going to
be replaced in hrtimer_interrupt().
