31 * denominator clock source which should function on
32 * all systems. It has the same coarse resolution as
33 * the timer interrupt frequency HZ and it suffers
34 * inaccuracies caused by missed or lost timer
35 * interrupts and the inability for the timer
36 * interrupt hardware to accuratly tick at the
25985edc 37 * requested HZ value. It is also not recommended
734efb46 38 * for "tick-less" systems.

42/* Since jiffies uses a simple NSEC_PER_JIFFY multiplier
43 * conversion, the .shift value could be zero. However
44 * this would make NTP adjustments impossible as they are
45 * in units of 1/2^.shift. Thus we use JIFFIES_SHIFT to
46 * shift both the nominator and denominator the same
47 * amount, and give ntp adjustments in units of 1/2^8
48 *
49 * The value 8 is somewhat carefully chosen, as anything
50 * larger can result in overflows. NSEC_PER_JIFFY grows as
025dfdaf 51 * HZ shrinks, so values greater than 8 overflow 32bits when
734efb46 52 * HZ=100.
