Hi,

After adjusting my system time in UEFI, I've had the ntpd daemon
terminate with exit status 11, with the following message in
/var/log/messages:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

I've had to do:

# herd enable ntpd
# herd start ntpd

To have it run again after the boot was completed.

It wasn't too longed before it crashed the same again, this time causing
Shepherd to use 100% CPU (1 core) doing almost only epoll_wait calls,
e.g.:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[...]
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
1     epoll_wait(8, [], 8, 0)           = 0
[...]

While it'd be nice to understand why ntpd segfaults when the server
doesn't support IPv6, this is now mitigated by using an IPv6-enabled
pool address by default (see: commit 503919fcf0 ("services: ntp: Default
to an address that supports IPv6.")).

Closing for now.
