I have set up a branch replacing the current Python version-specific
ntp.ntpc with a language-agnostic foreign function interface stub point
and a version agnostic Python ntp.ntpc using cytpes.
On build, it produces a single shared library 'libntp.so' in the ntpd

While working on a script[1], I stumbled across this issue. the cmd.Cmd
class does not call its precmd function from its onecmd function in

2. Report it upstream.
3. Change over to hot_config

The length of the SHM construct appears to date back to 1997 at that

We currently do not have builders for the tags freebsd-11, freebsd-12, and
ubuntu-1604-lts. It would appear that in the late unpleasantness that the
builders detached. This should be fixable by having the

I think it would be a not-very-good idea to add a bottleneck er mutex to
threading NTPsec, Linux worked hard to kill off their global lock IIRC.
A 24 block byte should suffice for the client-supplied data to the NTPv3/4
server threads, NTPv2 would probably need the same with perhaps a dozen
bytes

I submitted a couple of patches to gpsd and one to microjson resolving
issues. One where an empty string validated correctly as an object was
already posted to microjson. The other allowed pretty much any string the
same length or shorter to pass a t_check.
