From d40e944c25fb4642adb2a4c580a48218a9f3f824 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roman Zippel Date: Mon, 22 Sep 2008 14:42:44 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ntp: improve adjtimex frequency rounding Change PPM_SCALE_INV_SHIFT so that it doesn't throw away any input bits (19 is the amount of the factor 2 in PPM_SCALE), the output frequency can then be calculated back to its input value, as the inverse divide produce a slightly larger value, which is then correctly rounded by the final shift.
