Summary: ltp ajdtimex failures
Kernel Version: 2.5.72
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Owner: johnstul@us.ibm.com
Submitter: johnstul@us.ibm.com
Distribution: SUSE
Hardware Environment: AMD64/i386
Software Environment: ltp-full-20030606
Problem Description:
ltp adjtimex01 and adjtimex02 tests fail.
Steps to reproduce:
Boot a 2.5.72 kernel
Run ltp
The problem is related to some time cleanups that went in recently. TICK_USEC has
been changed to be based off of TICK_NSEC which is ACTHZ based. However
TICK_USEC should be USER_HZ based. The kernel rejects adjtimex changes to
timex.tick (tick_usec) if the value is outside 9,000->11,000 usecs per tick
(USER_HZ=100), however now TICK_USEC is ACTHZ based, adjtimex is returning
timex.tick values ~1,000 usecs per tick (HZ=1000).
Currently working with George Anzinger and Eric Piel to resolve this issue.
