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.
Fallback drifts are long-term averages of the system clock drift
calculated over exponentially increasing intervals. They are used when
the clock is unsynchronised to avoid quickly drifting away from true
time if there was a short-term deviation in drift before the
synchronisation was lost.
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.
Leap second status is accepted and forwarded to clients if majority
of selectable sources agree. The actual insertion/deletion is supported
only on Linux now.
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.
