Changing the struct ntptimeval means changing the ABI. This has been done upstream using symbol versioning, using GLIBC_2.12. I am currently not sure we can already use this version without breaking the binary compatibility with other distributions. -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-glibc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#558314: eglibc: Add support for NTP API 4
Source: eglibc Version: 2.10.2-2 Severity: wishlist Hi, Could you please provide support for NTP API 4? The changes in version 4 is the addition of MOD_TAI (ADJ_TAI) and a tai member in the ntptimeval struct. The kernel already supports this since 2.6.26 when ADJ_TAI got added. The current /usr/include/sys/timex.h already has ADJ_TAI and a tai member in struct timex. The struct ntptimeval however didn't get changed, since this is not part of the kernel but implemented only in libc. >From ntpd's point of view those changes need to be made: - add "long int tai;" to struct ntptimeval. This is a long in all known versions I know, but the kernel has an int in the struct timex (for compatibility reasons with the old struct?). - #define NTP_API 4 - Have a MOD_TAI define - ntp_gettime() should fill in the tai member of struct ntptimeval. Note that there is an ADJ_TAI in timex.h, and defines to change from ADJ_* to MOD_*, but there is no such one for TAI, NANO or MICRO. The ntp source does not use any of the ADJ_* names, it only uses MOD_*. The following defines are missing: #define MOD_NANOADJ_NANO #define MOD_MICRO ADJ_MICRO #define MOD_TAI ADJ_TAI (The other 3 ADJ_* defines are not used in ntp.)
