[OpenWrt-Devel] [LEDE-DEV] [PATCH] busybox: sysntpd - Support for NTP servers received via DHCP(v6)

[Jo-Philipp Wich]

Hi Hans,

staged into https://git.lede-project.org/?p=lede/jow/staging.git

A few improvement ideas though;

 - maybe we can make the jsonfilter dependency conditionally depending
   on the ntpd applet
 - maybe pipe the ubus interface status dump directly to jsonfilter
 - is there any reason to not make "use_dhcp" the default?
