    Subject[PATCH clocksource 4/5] clocksource: Provide a module parameter to fuzz per-CPU clock checking
    Date
    From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@kernel.org>

    Code that checks for clock desynchronization must itself be tested, so
    this commit creates a new clocksource.inject_delay_shift_percpu= kernel
    boot parameter that adds or subtracts a large value from the check read,
    using the specified bit of the CPU ID to determine whether to add or
    to subtract.

    + clocksource.inject_delay_shift_percpu= [KNL]
    + Clocksource delay injection partitions the CPUs
    + into two sets, one whose clocks are moved ahead
    + and the other whose clocks are moved behind.
    + This kernel parameter selects the CPU-number
    + bit that determines which of these two sets the
    + corresponding CPU is placed into. For example,
    + setting this parameter to the value 4 will result
    + in the first set containing alternating groups
    + of 16 CPUs whose clocks are moved ahead, while
    + the second set will contain the rest of the CPUs,
    + whose clocks are moved behind.
    +
    + The default value of -1 disables this type of
    + error injection.
