Make importance of stratum in source selection configurable
Instead of always selecting the source with minimum stratum, add weighted stratum to the distance when comparing selectable sources. The weight can be configured with new stratumweight directive and can be set to zero to ignore stratum completely, by default 1.0.

The @code{stratumweight} directive sets how much distance should be added
|
||||
per stratum to the synchronisation distance when @code{chronyd} selects
|
||||
the synchronisation source from available sources.
|
||||
|

The syntax is
|
||||
|
||||
@example
|
||||
stratumweight <dist-in-seconds>
|
||||
@end example
|
||||
|
||||
By default, it is 1 second. This usually means that sources with lower stratum
|
||||
will be preferred to sources with higher stratum even when their distance is
|
||||
significantly worse. Setting @code{stratumweight} to 0 makes @code{chronyd}
|
||||
ignore stratum when selecting the source.
