| 2 | The adjtimed daemon emulates the BSD adjtime(2) system call. The |
|---|
| 3 | adjtime() routine communicates with this daemon via SYSV messages. |
|---|
| 4 | |
|---|
| 5 | The emulation uses an undocumented kernel variable (as of 6.0/2.0 |
|---|
| 6 | and later releases) and as such it cannot be guaranteed to work in |
|---|
| 7 | future HP-UX releases. Perhaps HP-UX will have a real adjtime(2) |
|---|
| 8 | system call in the future. |

| 15 | NOTE: This code is known to work as of 8.0 on s300's, s700's and s800's. |

| 16 | PLEASE do not modify it unless you have access to kernel sources |
|---|
| 17 | and fully understand the implications of any changes you are making. |

| 18 | One person already has trashed adjtimed by making it do "the right |
|---|
| 19 | thing". This is not an exact replacement for BSD adjtime(2), don't |
|---|
| 20 | try to make it into one. |
