+ * So the following can be confusing.
+ *
+ * To keep things simple, lets assume adj == 1 for now.
+ *
+ * When adj != 1, remember that the interval and offset values
+ * have been appropriately scaled so the math is the same.
+ *
+ * The basic idea here is that we're increasing the multiplier
+ * by one, this causes the xtime_interval to be incremented by
+ * one cycle_interval. This is because:
+ * xtime_interval = cycle_interval * mult
+ * So if mult is being incremented by one:
+ * xtime_interval = cycle_interval * (mult + 1)
+ * Its the same as:
+ * xtime_interval = (cycle_interval * mult) + cycle_interval
+ * Which can be shortened to:
+ * xtime_interval += cycle_interval
+ *
+ * So offset stores the non-accumulated cycles. Thus the current
+ * time (in shifted nanoseconds) is:
+ * now = (offset * adj) + xtime_nsec
+ * Now, even though we're adjusting the clock frequency, we have
+ * to keep time consistent. In other words, we can't jump back
+ * in time, and we also want to avoid jumping forward in time.
+ *
+ * So given the same offset value, we need the time to be the same
+ * both before and after the freq adjustment.
+ * now = (offset * adj_1) + xtime_nsec_1
+ * now = (offset * adj_2) + xtime_nsec_2
+ * So:
+ * (offset * adj_1) + xtime_nsec_1 =
+ * (offset * adj_2) + xtime_nsec_2
+ * And we know:
+ * adj_2 = adj_1 + 1
+ * So:
+ * (offset * adj_1) + xtime_nsec_1 =
+ * (offset * (adj_1+1)) + xtime_nsec_2
+ * (offset * adj_1) + xtime_nsec_1 =
+ * (offset * adj_1) + offset + xtime_nsec_2
+ * Canceling the sides:
+ * xtime_nsec_1 = offset + xtime_nsec_2
+ * Which gives us:
+ * xtime_nsec_2 = xtime_nsec_1 - offset
+ * Which simplfies to:
+ * xtime_nsec -= offset
+ *
+ * XXX - TODO: Doc ntp_error calculation.
