Hi All,
I have one strange question about chrony.
I am using chrony to keep embedded board system time in sync.. When
GPS receiver is connected to board, It can able to sync system time with
very negligible deviation. The reference clock for chrony are PPS &
SHM.
Whenever GPS receiver got new time stamp, application log that value into a file as well as Same timestamp is being given to SHM. GPS receiver is sending updated time stamp at every 200ms.
I want to simulate same think. For this I am reading logged timestamp from file & sending it through UDP packet at 200ms interval using another application.
Embedded board receive that UDP packet extract timestamp information & write it into SHM.
With this approach chrony able to get SHM data & sync system time.
But I am getting lots of deviation. PPS is disable only SHM is enable
for this chrony.
Can any one tell me a better approach or previous experience to achieve this.
Thanks & Regards,
Pratik Pawar
