The first `clocksource_enqueue` function and other two defined in the same source code [file](https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/kernel/time/clocksource.c). We go through all already registered `clocksources` or in other words we go through all elements of the `clocksource_list` and tries to find best place for a given `clocksource`:
```C
/*
* Enqueue the clocksource sorted by rating
*/
static void clocksource_enqueue(struct clocksource *cs)
{
struct list_head *entry = &clocksource_list;
struct clocksource *tmp;
list_for_each_entry(tmp, &clocksource_list, list)
if (tmp->rating >= cs->rating)
entry = &tmp->list;
list_for_each_entry(tmp, &clocksource_list, list) {
/* Keep track of the place, where to insert */
if (tmp->rating < cs->rating)
break;
entry = &tmp->list;
}
list_add(&cs->list, entry);
}
```
