adjtimex()函数 Unix/Linux
名称
adjtimex - 调内核时钟
内容简介
#include <sys/timex.h> int adjtimex(struct timex *buf); |
描述
Linux使用大卫L. Mills的时钟调整算法(参见RFC1305)。 adjtimex()系统调用读取和任选设置该算法的调整参数。这需要一个指针的TIMEX结构,更新内核参数字段值,并返回相同的结构与当前的内核值。这种结构的声明如下:
struct timex { int modes; /* mode selector */ long offset; /* time offset (usec) */ long freq; /* frequency offset (scaled ppm) */ long maxerror; /* maximum error (usec) */ long esterror; /* estimated error (usec) */ int status; /* clock command/status */ long constant; /* pll time constant */ long precision; /* clock precision (usec) (read only) */ long tolerance; /* clock frequency tolerance (ppm) (read only) */ struct timeval time; /* current time (read only) */ long tick; /* usecs between clock ticks */ }; |
“modes ”字段确定的参数,如果有的话就设置。它可能包含一个按位或组合的零个或多个以下bits:
#define ADJ_OFFSET 0x0001 /* time offset */ #define ADJ_FREQUENCY 0x0002 /* frequency offset */ #define ADJ_MAXERROR 0x0004 /* maximum time error */ #define ADJ_ESTERROR 0x0008 /* estimated time error */ #define ADJ_STATUS 0x0010 /* clock status */ #define ADJ_TIMECONST 0x0020 /* pll time constant */ #define ADJ_TICK 0x4000 /* tick value */ #define ADJ_OFFSET_SINGLESHOT 0x8001 /* old-fashioned adjtime() */ |
普通用户限制到零值模式mode。只有超级用户可以设置任何参数。
返回值
成功,adjtimex() 返回时钟状态:
#define TIME_OK 0 /* clock synchronized */ #define TIME_INS 1 /* insert leap second */ #define TIME_DEL 2 /* delete leap second */ #define TIME_OOP 3 /* leap second in progress */ #define TIME_WAIT 4 /* leap second has occurred */ #define TIME_BAD 5 /* clock not synchronized */ |
如果失败,adjtimex()返回-1,并设置errno。
错误
标签 | 描述 |
---|---|
EFAULT | buf does not point to writable memory. |
EINVAL | An attempt is made to setbuf.offset to a value outside the range -131071 to +131071,or to set buf.status to a value other than those listed above,or to set buf.tick to a value outside the range 900000/HZ to 1100000/HZ, where HZ is the system timer interrupt frequency. |
EPERM | buf.mode is non-zero and the caller does not have sufficient privilege.Under Linux the CAP_SYS_TIME capability is required. |
遵循于
adjtimex() 是Linux特有的,并且不应该被用在程序准备移植. 查看adjtime(3)用于调整系统时钟的方法,更轻便,但弹性较差。
