Title:
  Very inaccurate TSC clocksource on HP ProLiant DL380 Gen10 with kernel
  4.13

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On kernel 4.13.0-37-generic, HP ProLiant DL380 Gen10 systems have been
  observed with very large clock offsets, as measured by NTP.  Over the
  past few days on one of our production systems, we've used 3 different
  kernels: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/nDkkgRqdtv/

  All of these kernels default to the TSC clocksource, which is supposed
  to be very reliable on Skylake-X CPUs.  On 4.4 (linux-image-generic-
  lts-xenial) it works as expected; on 3.13 (trusty default kernel) it
  works a little worse, and on 4.13 (linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04) it
  is much worse.  Today I switched 4.13 from the TSC clocksource to the
  HPET clocksource and it improved the situation dramatically.

  I've produced loopstats & peerstats graphs from NTP corresponding to
  the dates in the pastebin above and placed them at
  https://people.canonical.com/~paulgear/ntp/.
