Rename the exp1 extension field to exp_mono_root (monotonic timestamp +
root delay/dispersion) to better distinguish it from future experimental
extension fields.
Add support for AES-128-GCM-SIV in the current development code of
gnutls. There doesn't seem to be an API to get the cipher's minimum and
maximum nonce length and it doesn't check for invalid lengths. Hardcode
and check the limits in chrony for now.
When reloading a modified source from sourcedir which is ordered before
the original source (e.g. maxpoll was decreased), the new source is
added before the original one is removed. If the source is specified by
IP address, the addition fails due to the conflict with the original
source. Sources specified by hostname don't conflict. They are resolved
later (repeatedly if the resolver provides only conflicting addresses).
Split the processing of sorted source lists into two phases, so all
modified sources are removed before they are added again to avoid the
conflict.

FreeBSD allows switching the receive timestamp format to struct timespec by
setting the SO_TS_CLOCK socket option to SO_TS_REALTIME after enabling
SO_TIMESTAMP. If successful, the kernel then starts adding SCM_REALTIME
control messages instead of SCM_TIMESTAMP.
Avoid frequently ending in the middle of a client/server exchange with
long delays. This changed after commit 4a11399c2e ("ntp: rework
calculation of transmit timeout").
Clients sockets are closed immediately after receiving valid response.
Don't wait for the first early HW TX timestamp to enable waiting for
late timestamps. It may take a long time or never come if the HW/driver
is consistently slow. It's a chicken and egg problem.
Instead, simply check if HW timestamping is enabled on at least one
interface. Responses from NTP sources on other interfaces will always be
saved (for 1 millisecond by default).
If noselect is present in the configured options, don't assume it
cannot change and the effective options are equal. This fixes chronyc
selectopts +noselect command.

When refreshing a source, compare the newly resolved addresses with the
originally resolved address instead of the current address to avoid
unnecessary replacements when the address is changed due to the NTS-KE
server negotiation.
The getdate code (copied from gnulib before it was switched to GPLv3)
has multiple issues with signed integer overflows. Use the -fwrapv
compiler option for this object to at least make the operations defined.
Refresh NTP sources specified by hostname periodically (every 2 weeks
by default) to avoid long-running instances using a server which is no
longer intended for service, even if it is still responding correctly
and would not be replaced as unreachable, and help redistributing load
in large pools like pool.ntp.org. Only one source is refreshed at a time
to not interrupt clock updates if there are multiple selectable servers.
The refresh directive configures the interval. A value of 0 disables
the periodic refreshment.

Don't leave dangling pointers to timer queue entries when they are
freed in the scheduler finalization in case some code tried to remove
a timer later.
Fixes: 6ea1082a72 ("sched: free timer blocks on exit")
Wait for four consecutive source selections giving a bad status
(falseticker, bad distance or jittery) before triggering the source
replacement. This should reduce the rate of unnecessary replacements
and shorten the time needed to find a solution when unreplaceable
falsetickers are preventing other sources from forming a majority due
to switching back and forth to unreachable servers.
Instead of waiting for the next update of reachability, trigger
replacement of falsetickers, jittery and distant sources as soon as
the selection status is updated in their SRC_SelectSource() call.
When starting the daemon, wait in the grandparent process for the parent
process to terminate before exiting to avoid systemd logging a warning
"Supervising process $PID which is not our child". Waiting for the pipe
to be closed by the kernel when the parent process exits is not
sufficient.

Replacement attempts are globally rate limited to one per 7*2^8 seconds
to limit the rate of DNS requests for public servers like pool.ntp.org.
If multiple sources are repeatedly attempting replacement (at their
polling intervals), one source can be getting all attempts for periods
of time.
Use a randomly generated interval to randomize the order of source
replacements without changing the average rate.
The clang memory sanitizer seems to trigger on an uninitialized value
passed to format_name() when the source is a refclock, even though the
value is not used for anything. Pass 0 in this case to avoid the error.
valgrind 3.21.0 reports realloc() of 0 bytes as an error due to having
different behavior on different systems. The only place where this can
happen in chrony is the array, which doesn't care what value realloc()
returns.
Modify the realloc wrapper to call free() in this case to make valgrind
happy.
