I am a bit vague but isn't there some problem with synchronising the clocks on AMD multicore systems? Was this discussed?

Clock Synchronisation Posted Jul 20, 2006 0:52 UTC (Thu) by dlang (subscriber, #313) [Link] there are problems if the kernel puts one core into power saving mode and doesn't re-sync the time when it wakes it up.
oen work-around is to just disable the power-saving mode, the other is code changes to do the tiem syncs on wakeups.
I haven't been following this for several months (a kernel release or so), so I don't know if the code changes have been done and included in the kernel yet.
