No, I don't believe so. The TAI timeline doesn't have a discontinuity(ie: each second is properly represented over a leapsecond), so it wouldn't have the same issue with the specifics of when that discontinuity is applied. Our TAI adjustment is done atomically with the leap adjustment, so late or not it shouldn't have problematic behavior. thanks -john -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
