[PATCH] timekeeping: Fix bogus clock_was_set() invocation in do_adjtimex()
Posted by Thomas Gleixner 1 year, 4 months ago
The addition of the bases argument to clock_was_set() fixed up all call
sites correctly except for do_adjtimex(). This uses CLOCK_REALTIME
instead of CLOCK_SET_WALL as argument. CLOCK_REALTIME is 0.

As a result the effect of that clock_was_set() notification is incomplete
and might result in timers expiring late because the hrtimer code does
not re-evaluate the affected clock bases.

Use CLOCK_SET_WALL instead of CLOCK_REALTIME to tell the hrtimers code
which clock bases need to be re-evaluated.
