[RFC][PATCH 4/5] timekeeping: Fix CLOCK_TAI timer/nanosleep delays

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A think-o in the calculation of the monotonic -> tai time offset
results in CLOCK_TAI timers and nanosleeps to expire late (the
latency is ~2x the tai offset).

Fix this by adding the tai offset from the realtime offset instead
of subtracting.
