When chronyd is started with -R, the initstepslew directive and the
makestep directive with a positive limit will be ignored. This is useful
when restarting chronyd to avoid unnecessary clock adjustments. It can
be used with -r.
Exit when all sockets are ready and initstepslew command and rtc step
are completed. Also, in case of a fatal error, print the error message
and exit with a non-zero status.
A new tempcomp directive can be used to specify a file for reading
current temperature, update interval and compensation coefficients. The
clock frequency corrections are applied in local module and are invisible
in upper layers. The measurements and corrections can be logged to
tempcomp.log file.
The attached patch adds support for mlockall() as well as the SCHED_FIFO
real-time scheduler. It should result in reduced (and more consistent)
latency. Usage is documented in all the documents.
Attached is a patch adding a linux capabilities support to chronyd. It
adds -u option which can be used to specify the user which chronyd
should switch to.
This is a verbatim copy of the files at that stage of the repository that was
built from the CVS import. It allows future development to see a bit of recent
history, but without carrying around the baggage going back to 1997. If that
is really required, git grafts can be used.
