Subject: [PATCH 1/8] ntp: Fix STA_INS/DEL clearing bug
Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2012 01:21:50 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1342156917-25092-2-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1342156917-25092-1-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org>

From: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com>

In commit 6b43ae8a619d17c4935c3320d2ef9e92bdeed05d, I
introduced a bug that kept the STA_INS or STA_DEL bit
from being cleared from time_status via adjtimex()
without forcing STA_PLL first.

Usually once the STA_INS is set, it isn't cleared
until the leap second is applied, so its unlikely this
affected anyone. However during testing I noticed it
took some effort to cancel a leap second once STA_INS
was set.

This issue affects 3.4 and up.

Since this isn't urgent (issue is only observed in testing,
the behavior doesn't affect ntpd, nor is a leapsecond due
for at least ~6 months), and we're late in the 3.5-rc
cycle, I'm holding this off for 3.6 merge window,
where I'll then backport to 3.5-stable and 3.4-stable.
