Hi,
Wondering why my RTC's time drifts away when the NTP daemon is running I
discovered to my surprise that our NTP support code is still of 2.0
vintage and simply does not work. As a result set_rtc_mmss() does not get
called at all.
The following patch updates the relevant code for both MIPS and MIPS64
to match the rest of the kernel. I've only tested the DEC path but
changes are straightforward and should work for all variations.
[Hmm, now my dispersion changes between 1 and 0.1 -- the set_rtc_mmss()
function resets the RTC's divider and as a result further timer interrupts
do not arrive exactly at the right time. This probably cannot be avoided
(apart from by disabling set_rtc_mmss()) but the code needs to be updated
regardless.]
Comments are welcomed, as usually.
Maciej
