Name : ntp-refclock Product : Fedora 38 Version : 0.6 Release : 1.fc38 URL : https://github.com/mlichvar/ntp-refclock Summary : Drivers for hardware reference clocks Description : ntp-refclock is a wrapper for reference clock drivers included in the ntpd daemon, which enables other NTP implementations to use the supported hardware reference clocks for synchronization of the system clock.
It provides a minimal environment for the drivers to be able to run in a separate process, measuring the offset of the system clock relative to the reference clock and sending the measurements to another process controlling the system clock.
