+/* Leap second stress test
+ *              by: John Stultz (john.stultz@linaro.org)
+ *              (C) Copyright IBM 2012

+ *              Licensed under the GPLv2
+ *
+ *  This test signals the kernel to insert a leap second
+ *  every day at midnight GMT. This allows for stessing the
+ *  kernel's leap-second behavior, as well as how well applications
+ *  handle the leap-second discontinuity.
+ *
+ *  Usage: leap-a-day [-s] [-i <num>]
+ *
+ *  Options:
+ *	-s:	Each iteration, set the date to 10 seconds before midnight GMT.
+ *		This speeds up the number of leapsecond transitions tested,
+ *		but because it calls settimeofday frequently, advancing the
+ *		time by 24 hours every ~16 seconds, it may cause application
+ *		disruption.
+ *
+ *	-i:	Number of iterations to run (default: infinite)
+ *
+ *  Other notes: Disabling NTP prior to running this is advised, as the two
+ *		 may conflict in their commands to the kernel.
+ *
+ *  To build:
+ *	$ gcc leap-a-day.c -o leap-a-day -lrt
