41  * These routines (get_systime, step_systime, adj_systime) implement an
42  * interface between the system independent NTP clock and the Unix
43  * system clock in various architectures and operating systems. Time is
44  * a precious quantity in these routines and every effort is made to
45  * minimize errors by unbiased rounding and amortizing adjustment
46  * residues.
47  *
48  * In order to improve the apparent resolution, provide unbiased
49  * rounding and most importantly ensure that the readings cannot be
50  * predicted, the low-order unused portion of the time below the minimum
51  * time to read the clock is filled with an unbiased random fuzz.
52  *
53  * The sys_tick variable specifies the system clock tick interval in
54  * seconds, for stepping clocks, defined as those which return times
55  * less than MINSTEP greater than the previous reading. For systems that
56  * use a high-resolution counter such that each clock reading is always
57  * at least MINSTEP greater than the prior, sys_tick is the time to read
58  * the system clock.
59  *
60  * The sys_fuzz variable measures the minimum time to read the system
61  * clock, regardless of its precision.  When reading the system clock
62  * using get_systime() after sys_tick and sys_fuzz have been determined,
63  * ntpd ensures each unprocessed clock reading is no less than sys_fuzz
64  * later than the prior unprocessed reading, and then fuzzes the bits
65  * below sys_fuzz in the timestamp returned, ensuring each of its
66  * resulting readings is strictly later than the previous.
67  *
68  * When slewing the system clock using adj_systime() (with the kernel
69  * loop discipline unavailable or disabled), adjtime() offsets are
70  * quantized to sys_tick, if sys_tick is greater than sys_fuzz, which
71  * is to say if the OS presents a stepping clock.  Otherwise, offsets
72  * are quantized to the microsecond resolution of adjtime()'s timeval
73  * input.  The remaining correction sys_residual is carried into the
74  * next adjtime() and meanwhile is also factored into get_systime()
75  * readings.
