6 * This file contains the interface functions for the various
7 * time related system calls: time, stime, gettimeofday, settimeofday,
11 * Modification history kernel/time.c
13 * 1993-09-02 Philip Gladstone
14 * Created file with time related functions from sched.c and adjtimex()
15 * 1993-10-08 Torsten Duwe
16 * adjtime interface update and CMOS clock write code
17 * 1995-08-13 Torsten Duwe
18 * kernel PLL updated to 1994-12-13 specs (rfc-1589)
19 * 1999-01-16 Ulrich Windl
20 * Introduced error checking for many cases in adjtimex().
21 * Updated NTP code according to technical memorandum Jan '96
22 * "A Kernel Model for Precision Timekeeping" by Dave Mills
23 * Allow time_constant larger than MAXTC(6) for NTP v4 (MAXTC == 10)
24 * (Even though the technical memorandum forbids it)
25 * 2004-07-14 Christoph Lameter
26 * Added getnstimeofday to allow the posix timer functions to return
27 * with nanosecond accuracy
