Hello, All! How are you? One my program use alarm() to interrupt some blocking system calls. I use alarm(1) (one second). Everything works Ok, except cases, when ntpdate shift time more than 1 second forward. If time is shifted when alarm are set already, but not generated yet, SIGALARM doesn't occur at all :( Is it normal?
