In the recent TCP/EDT patch series, I switched TCP and sch_fq clocks from MONOTONIC to TAI, in order to meet the choice done earlier for sch_etf packet scheduler. But sure enough, this broke some setups were the TAI clock jumps forward (by almost 50 year...), as reported by Leonard Crestez. If we want to converge later, we'll probably need to add an skb field to differentiate the clock bases, or a socket option. In the meantime, an UDP application will need to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC base for its SCM_TXTIME timestamps if using fq packet scheduler.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
