77  * parameters have been carefully chosen by analysis for good stability
78  * and wide dynamic range.
79  *
80  * The hz variable is defined in the kernel build environment. It
81  * establishes the timer interrupt frequency, 100 Hz for the SunOS
82  * kernel, 256 Hz for the Ultrix kernel and 1024 Hz for the OSF/1
83  * kernel. SHIFT_HZ expresses the same value as the nearest power of two
84  * in order to avoid hardware multiply operations.
85  *
86  * SHIFT_KG and SHIFT_KF establish the damping of the PLL and are chosen
87  * for a slightly underdamped convergence characteristic. SHIFT_KH
88  * establishes the damping of the FLL and is chosen by wisdom and black
89  * art.
90  *
91  * MAXTC establishes the maximum time constant of the PLL. With the
92  * SHIFT_KG and SHIFT_KF values given and a time constant range from
93  * zero to MAXTC, the PLL will converge in 15 minutes to 16 hours,
94  * respectively.

107  * SHIFT_SCALE defines the scaling (shift) of the time_phase variable,
108  * which serves as a an extension to the low-order bits of the system
109  * clock variable time.tv_usec.
110  *
111  * SHIFT_UPDATE defines the scaling (shift) of the time_offset variable,
112  * which represents the current time offset with respect to standard
113  * time.
114  *
115  * SHIFT_USEC defines the scaling (shift) of the time_freq and
116  * time_tolerance variables, which represent the current frequency
117  * offset and maximum frequency tolerance.

127  * The following defines establish the performance envelope of the PLL.
128  * They insure it operates within predefined limits, in order to satisfy
129  * correctness assertions. An excursion which exceeds these bounds is
130  * clamped to the bound and operation proceeds accordingly. In practice,
131  * this can occur only if something has failed or is operating out of
132  * tolerance, but otherwise the PLL continues to operate in a stable
133  * mode.
134  *
135  * MAXPHASE must be set greater than or equal to CLOCK.MAX (128 ms), as
136  * defined in the NTP specification. CLOCK.MAX establishes the maximum
137  * time offset allowed before the system time is reset, rather than
138  * incrementally adjusted. Here, the maximum offset is clamped to
139  * MAXPHASE only in order to prevent overflow errors due to defective
140  * protocol implementations.
141  *
142  * MAXFREQ is the maximum frequency tolerance of the CPU clock
143  * oscillator plus the maximum slew rate allowed by the protocol. It
144  * should be set to at least the frequency tolerance of the oscillator
145  * plus 100 ppm for vernier frequency adjustments. If the kernel
146  * PPS discipline code is configured (PPS_SYNC), the oscillator time and
147  * frequency are disciplined to an external source, presumably with
148  * negligible time and frequency error relative to UTC, and MAXFREQ can
149  * be reduced.
150  *
151  * MAXTIME is the maximum jitter tolerance of the PPS signal if the
152  * kernel PPS discipline code is configured (PPS_SYNC).
