Subject[PATCH 4.19 66/75] timekeeping: Repair ktime_get_coarse*() granularity
Date
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

commit e3ff9c3678b4d80e22d2557b68726174578eaf52 upstream.

Jason reported that the coarse ktime based time getters advance only once
per second and not once per tick as advertised.

The code reads only the monotonic base time, which advances once per
second. The nanoseconds are accumulated on every tick in xtime_nsec up to
a second and the regular time getters take this nanoseconds offset into
account, but the ktime_get_coarse*() implementation fails to do so.

Add the accumulated xtime_nsec value to the monotonic base time to get the
proper per tick advancing coarse tinme.

Fixes: b9ff604cff11 ("timekeeping: Add ktime_get_coarse_with_offset")
