The following errata report has been verified for RFC5905, "Network Time Protocol Version 4: Protocol and Algorithms Specification". -------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid6550 -------------------------------------- Status: Verified Type: Technical Reported by: Perry Lorier <isomer@gmail.com> Date Reported: 2021-04-17 Verified by: Erik Kline (IESG) Section: A.5.2 Original Text ------------- for (i = 0; i < NSTAGE; i++) { p->disp += f[i].disp / (2 ^ (i + 1)); p->jitter += SQUARE(f[i].offset - f[0].offset); } Corrected Text -------------- for (i = 0; i < NSTAGE; i++) { p->disp += f[i].disp / (1 << (i + 1)); p->jitter += SQUARE(f[i].offset - f[0].offset); } Notes ----- ^ is the xor operator in C, not the exponent operator. 2 xor (i+1) will be zero when i == 1, causing a division by zero error. -------------------------------------- RFC5905 (draft-ietf-ntp-ntpv4-proto-13) -------------------------------------- Title : Network Time Protocol Version 4: Protocol and Algorithms Specification Publication Date : June 2010 Author(s) : D.
