If the network correction is known for both the request and response,
and their sum is not larger that the measured peer delay, allowing the
transparent clocks to be running up to 100 ppm faster than the client's
clock, apply the corrections to the NTP offset and peer delay. Don't
correct the root delay to not change the estimated maximum error.
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.
Fixes: 3877734814 ("sources: add function to modify selection options")
In a non-tty session with chronyc it is not possible to detect the
end of the response without relying on timeouts, or separate responses
to a repeated command if using the -c option.
Add -e option to end each response with a line containing a single dot.
Add a new test for maximum delay using a long-term estimate of a
p-quantile of the peer delay. If enabled, it replaces the
maxdelaydevratio test. It's main advantage is that it is not sensitive
to outliers corrupting the minimum delay.
As it can take a large number of samples for the estimate to reach the
expected value and adapt to a new value after a network change, the
option is recommended only for local networks with very short polling
intervals.
Report the number of received interleaved requests and current timestamp
count with their span.
Expand the serverstats description in chronyc man page.
Use the new cmdparse function for parsing the (cmd)allow/deny commands
and refactor the code a bit to reduce the number of functions needed for
all the (cmd)allow/deny(all) combinations.
The reset command drops all measurements and switches the reference to
the unsynchronised state. This command can help chronyd with recovery
when the measurements are known to be no longer valid or accurate, e.g.
due to moving the computer to a different network, or resuming the
computer from a low-power state (which resets the system clock).
Add -a option to the sources and sourcestats commands to print all
sources, including those that don't have a resolved address yet. By
default, only sources that have a real address are printed for
compatibility. Remove the "210 Number of sources" messages to avoid
confusion. Also, modify the ntpdata command to always print only sources
with a resolved address.
This is an incompatible change in the output of the tracking command,
which may break some scripts, but it's necessary to avoid confusion with
IPv4 addresses when synchronised to an IPv6 server or reference clock.
Add a new printf-like function to allow printing of all fields at once
and rework all commands which print a report to use it. Add functions
for printing of headers and information fields, and formatting of IP
addresses and reference IDs.
Use clknetsim to run multiple chronyd instances with simulated clocks
and network. It allows fast and reproducible testing, without real
network.
Included are several tests of performance in different clock/network
conditions, chronyd options, NTP authentication, chronyc, and past bug
fixes.
