getnstimeofday() is deprecated, so I'm converting this to use ktime_get_real_ts64() as a safe replacement. I considered using ktime_get_real() instead, but since the algorithm here depends on the exact timing, I decided to introduce fewer changes and leave the code that determines the nanoseconds since the last seconds wrap untouched. It's not entirely clear to me whether we should also change the time base to CLOCK_BOOTTIME or CLOCK_TAI. With boottime, we would be independent of changes due to settimeofday() and only see the speed adjustment from the upstream clock source, with the downside of having the signal be at an arbirary offset from the start of the UTC second signal. With CLOCK_TAI, we would use the same offset from the UTC second as before and still suffer from settimeofday() adjustments, but would be less confused during leap seconds. Both boottime and tai only offer usable (i.e. avoiding ktime_t to timespec64 conversion) interfaces for ktime_t though, so either way, changing it wouldn't take significantly more work. CLOCK_MONOTONIC could be used with ktime_get_ts64(), but would lose synchronization across a suspend/resume cycle, which seems worse.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
