=head1 NAME

parse Chrony Tracking output for timeserver status information

=head1 APPLICABLE SYSTEMS

Any system with a local chronyd service.

=head1 CONFIGURATION

No configuration.


=head1 VERSION

Revision 0.1 2008/08/23 13:06:00 joti

  First version only chronyc tracking, autodetection included.

Revision 0.2 2008/10/11 16:09:00 joti

  Added scaling of other values to match with frequency, added more description to fields

Revision 0.3 2014/02/16 zjttoefs

  reduce forking by using awk
  do not limit output precision
  add stratum monitoring
  detect slow/fast time or frequency and adjust sign of value accordingly
  remove commented out code

Revision 0.4 2016/11/10 Lars Kruse

  rewrite field handling
  use "which" for "chronyc" location
  switch from "bash" to "sh"
  fix exit code of failing "autoconf"

# Frequency has extremely higher values than other. Therefore they are fitted by scaling via suitable factors.
# field definitions:
#   - munin fieldname
#   - factor for graph visualization (all values are supposed to reach a similar dimension)
#   - regular expression of the chrony output line (may not contain whitespace, case insensitive)
#   - label (may include "%d" for including the factor; may contain whitespace)
