I have responded my self to a couple of fat fingers in the commit messages. I am also in the process of testing the actual effects of the feature. One thing I'm not sure I have adequately described (and didn't really understand until I started testing) is that a positive value in the adjust register increases the average value of a second, so it makes the clock slower, while a negative adjustment makes it faster. This was counterintuitive to me. Not having deeply examined other rtc's with similar capabilities, I can't say whether this is the norm. -- ~Joshua Clayton -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
