PTI has a significant impact on precision of the MONOTONIC_RAW clock,
which prevents a lot of computers from running the freq-step test.
Increase the maximum acceptable precision for the test to not be skipped
to 500 nanoseconds.
After commit 78b98e3c5a ("timekeeping/ntp: Determine the multiplier
directly from NTP tick length") the frequency and time errors should be
much smaller. Reduce the maximum acceptable values for the test to pass
to 0.02 ppm and 50 nanoseconds respectively.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
