38 * This header file defines the Network Time Protocol (NTP) interfaces
39 * for user and daemon application programs. These are implemented using
40 * private syscalls and data structures and require specific kernel

74 * The following defines establish the engineering parameters of the
75 * phase-lock loop (PLL) model used in the kernel implementation. These
76 * parameters have been carefully chosen by analysis for good stability
77 * and wide dynamic range.
79 * The hz variable is defined in the kernel build environment. It
80 * establishes the timer interrupt frequency, 100 Hz for the SunOS
81 * kernel, 256 Hz for the Ultrix kernel and 1024 Hz for the OSF/1
82 * kernel. SHIFT_HZ expresses the same value as the nearest power of two
83 * in order to avoid hardware multiply operations.
85 * SHIFT_KG and SHIFT_KF establish the damping of the PLL and are chosen
86 * for a slightly underdamped convergence characteristic.
88 * MAXTC establishes the maximum time constant of the PLL. With the
89 * SHIFT_KG and SHIFT_KF values given and a time constant range from
90 * zero to MAXTC, the PLL will converge in 15 minutes to 16 hours,
93 #define SHIFT_HZ 7 /* log2(hz) */
94 #define SHIFT_KG 6 /* phase factor (shift) */
95 #define SHIFT_KF 16 /* frequency factor (shift) */
96 #define MAXTC 6 /* maximum time constant (shift) */
99 * The following defines establish the scaling of the various variables
100 * used by the PLL. They are chosen to allow the greatest precision
101 * possible without overflow of a 32-bit word.
103 * SHIFT_SCALE defines the scaling (shift) of the time_phase variable,
104 * which serves as a an extension to the low-order bits of the system
105 * clock variable time.tv_usec.
107 * SHIFT_UPDATE defines the scaling (shift) of the time_offset variable,
108 * which represents the current time offset with respect to standard
111 * SHIFT_USEC defines the scaling (shift) of the time_freq and
112 * time_tolerance variables, which represent the current frequency
113 * offset and maximum frequency tolerance.
115 * FINEUSEC is 1 us in SHIFT_UPDATE units of the time_phase variable.
117 #define SHIFT_SCALE 23 /* phase scale (shift) */
118 #define SHIFT_UPDATE (SHIFT_KG + MAXTC) /* time offset scale (shift) */
119 #define SHIFT_USEC 16 /* frequency offset scale (shift) */
120 #define FINEUSEC (1L << SHIFT_SCALE) /* 1 us in phase units */
123 * The following defines establish the performance envelope of the PLL.
124 * They insure it operates within predefined limits, in order to satisfy
125 * correctness assertions. An excursion which exceeds these bounds is
126 * clamped to the bound and operation proceeds accordingly. In practice,
127 * this can occur only if something has failed or is operating out of
128 * tolerance, but otherwise the PLL continues to operate in a stable
131 * MAXPHASE must be set greater than or equal to CLOCK.MAX (128 ms), as
132 * defined in the NTP specification. CLOCK.MAX establishes the maximum
133 * time offset allowed before the system time is reset, rather than
134 * incrementally adjusted. Here, the maximum offset is clamped to
135 * MAXPHASE only in order to prevent overflow errors due to defective
136 * protocol implementations.
138 * MAXFREQ is the maximum frequency tolerance of the CPU clock
139 * oscillator plus the maximum slew rate allowed by the protocol. It
140 * should be set to at least the frequency tolerance of the oscillator
141 * plus 100 ppm for vernier frequency adjustments. If the kernel
142 * PPS discipline code is configured (PPS_SYNC), the oscillator time and
143 * frequency are disciplined to an external source, presumably with
144 * negligible time and frequency error relative to UTC, and MAXFREQ can
147 * MAXTIME is the maximum jitter tolerance of the PPS signal if the
148 * kernel PPS discipline code is configured (PPS_SYNC).
150 * MINSEC and MAXSEC define the lower and upper bounds on the interval
151 * between protocol updates.
153 #define MAXPHASE 128000L /* max phase error (us) */
155 #define MAXFREQ (100L << SHIFT_USEC) /* max freq error (100 ppm) */

161 #define MAXSEC 1200L /* max interval between updates (s) */
165 * The following defines are used only if a pulse-per-second (PPS)
166 * signal is available and connected via a modem control lead, such as
167 * produced by the optional ppsclock feature incorporated in the Sun
168 * asynch driver. They establish the design parameters of the frequency-
169 * lock loop used to discipline the CPU clock oscillator to the PPS
172 * PPS_AVG is the averaging factor for the frequency loop, as well as
173 * the time and frequency dispersion.
175 * PPS_SHIFT and PPS_SHIFTMAX specify the minimum and maximum
176 * calibration intervals, respectively, in seconds as a power of two.
178 * PPS_VALID is the maximum interval before the PPS signal is considered
179 * invalid and protocol updates used directly instead.
181 * MAXGLITCH is the maximum interval before a time offset of more than
182 * MAXTIME is believed.
