Fix conversion of floating point numbers from the cmdmon format with
very small exponents, as for instance could be in the smoothing report
when the smoothing process ends.
This was broken in commit 8e71a46173.
Include a random (constant) value in the hash in UTI_IPToHash() to
randomize the order in which NTP sources are stored in the hash table
and polled on start. This change also randomizes the order of clientlog
records.
Use UTI_GetRandomBytes() instead of random() to generate random bits
below precision. Save the result in NTP_int64 in the network order and
allow precision in the full range from -32 to 32. With precision 32
the fuzzing now makes the timestamp completely random and can be used to
hide the time.
Add a function to fill a buffer with random bytes which uses a better
PRNG than random(). Use arc4random() if it's available on the system.
Fall back to reading from /dev/urandom, which should be available on
all currently supported systems.
Call chown() in create_dir() even when the specified uid/gid is zero.
This is needed on BSD systems, where directories are created with gid
of the parent directory.
Try to create the directory where will be the Unix domain command socket
bound to allow starting with empty /var/run. Check the permissions and
owner/group in case the directory already existed. It MUST NOT be
accessible by others as permissions on Unix domain sockets are ignored
on some systems (e.g. Solaris).
This prevents error messages when running chronyd -d/-q/-Q with default
logdir in a directory chronyd is not allowed do access after dropping
the root privileges.
In UTI_IsTimeOffsetSane() consider time in one year interval before
32-bit time_t overflow (in 2038) as invalid. Hopefully everything will
be using 64-bit time_t when that time comes.
NTP timestamps use only 32 bits to count seconds and the current NTP era
ends in 2036. Add support for converting NTP timestamps from other NTP
eras on systems with 64-bit time_t.
The earliest assumed NTP time is set by the configure script (by default
to 50 years before the date of the build) and earlier NTP timestamps
underflow to the following NTP era.
