Steps to reproduce: Boot a 2.5.72 kernel Run ltp The problem is related to some time cleanups that went in recently. TICK_USEC has been changed to be based off of TICK_NSEC which is ACTHZ based. However TICK_USEC should be USER_HZ based. The kernel rejects adjtimex changes to timex.tick (tick_usec) if the value is outside 9,000->11,000 usecs per tick (USER_HZ=100), however now TICK_USEC is ACTHZ based, adjtimex is returning timex.tick values ~1,000 usecs per tick (HZ=1000). Currently working with George Anzinger and Eric Piel to resolve this issue.
