                          One of the workaround for old CentOS/CentOS kernel (6.1-6.3) which may "Systems hang due to leap-second livelock." (quoting redhat ), is to set  tinker step in /etc/ntp.conf. Bug the documentation is not clear about the unit/syntax ().

What is the exact syntax (unit) for tinker step?

Also, how can I query the current value of tinker step on a running NTP daemon?
