Combine only sources whose distance is shorter than distance of the
selected source multiplied by the value of combinelimit and their
estimated frequencies are close to the frequency of the selected source.
Add outlyer status for sources which are selectable, but not included in
the combining. The status is displayed as '-' in the chronyc sources
output.
- normalize command line before parsing
- compare whole words
- check for missing/extra arguments in config parsing
- use strdup for string allocation
- share code for reporting syntax errors
- avoid using function pointers
- cleanup the code a bit
Allow different hash functions to be used in the NTP and cmdmon
protocols. This breaks the cmdmon protocol compatibility. Extended key
file format is used to specify the hash functions for chronyd and new
authhash command is added to chronyc. MD5 is the default and the only
function included in the chrony source code, other functions will be
available from libraries.
Require that the ratio of the increase in delay from the minimum one in
the stats data register to the standard deviation of the offsets in the
register is less than maxdelaydevratio or the difference between
measured offset and predicted offset is larger than the increase in
delay. In the allowed delay increase is included also skew and maximum
clock frequency error.
maxdelaydevratio is 10.0 by default.
Instead of following skew changes, adjust polling interval so that the
number of measurements used in the regression algorithm remains close to
a target value. It can be configured with a new polltarget option
(6 by default).
Resolving is retried in increasing intervals (maximum is one hour)
until it succeeds or fails with a non-temporary error.
Unresolved sources are included in the activity report as offline
sources and the online command can be used to retry it immediately.
This could be improved by resolving in a separate thread/process
to avoid blocking.
Instead of retrying to resolve it in the function and blocking for a
long time, return a TryAgain status and let the caller retry it later if
necessary.
