I'm afraid I may not have made clear the context of the

demonstrate what happens after a while when I don't have
"noselect" on the GPS source and the GPS source has been
selected by chrony after a "no majority" message is
output to syslog. I guess it just stops caring about the
PPS in this situation.
It should not do that. Sounds like a bug in chrony.
Is there anything further I can provide to help track down
and/or file the bug? I think I've passed on everything I
know about this condition so far. I realise that you are
having to take my word for it that the PPS and SHM sources
are both good, which is not ideal from your standpoint.
There's nothing I can do about that though.
With my config fixed, I get the following consistently:
[sw200319 /root]# chronyc sources
210 Number of sources = 2

Yes, that looks fine. I am surprized that the nmea is only
out by 4ms.
Well the receiver's NMEA output is UTC-aligned, the serial
bus is quiet, the software that parses the NMEA and
populates the SHM runs at a high priority with a
more-or-less constant workload, and my "delay" flag is
fairly well-chosen.
It does vary up to 20ms or so, though — the above output
caught it at a good moment :)
