The adjtimed daemon emulates the BSD adjtime(2) system call. The
|
||
|
|
adjtime() routine communicates with this daemon via SYSV messages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The emulation uses an undocumented kernel variable (as of 6.0/2.0
|
||
|
|
and later releases) and as such it cannot be guaranteed to work in
|
||
|
|
future HP-UX releases. Perhaps HP-UX will have a real adjtime(2)
|
||
|
|
system call in the future.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This stuff must be compiled with no optimization !!

|
|
NOTE: This code is known to work as of 8.0 on s300's, s700's and s800's.

PLEASE do not modify it unless you have access to kernel sources
|
||
|
|
and fully understand the implications of any changes you are making.

|
One person already has trashed adjtimed by making it do "the right
|
||
|
|
thing". This is not an exact replacement for BSD adjtime(2), don't
|
||
|
|
try to make it into one.
