2018-03-26ptp: Fix documentation to match code.Richard Cochran1-4/+1
Ever since commit 3a06c7ac24f9 ("posix-clocks: Remove interval timer facility and mmap/fasync callbacks") the possibility of PHC based posix timers has been removed. In addition it will probably never make sense to implement this functionality. This patch removes the misleading text which seems to suggest that posix timers for PHC devices will ever be a thing.

2016-09-20selftests: move ptp tests from Documentation/ptpShuah Khan4-565/+0
Remove ptp from Makefile to move the test to selftests. Update ptp Makefile to work under selftests. ptp will not be run as part of selftests suite and will not be included in install targets. They can be built separately for now. Acked-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <shuahkh@osg.samsung.com>

2016-03-04ptp: Add PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE for driver crosstimestampingChristopher S. Hall1-2/+4
Currently, network /system cross-timestamping is performed in the PTP_SYS_OFFSET ioctl. The PTP clock driver reads gettimeofday() and the gettime64() callback provided by the driver. The cross-timestamp is best effort where the latency between the capture of system time (getnstimeofday()) and the device time (driver callback) may be significant. The getcrosststamp() callback and corresponding PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE ioctl allows the driver to perform this device/system correlation when for example cross timestamp hardware is available. Modern Intel systems can do this for onboard Ethernet controllers using the ART counter. There is virtually zero latency between captures of the ART and network device clock. The capabilities ioctl (PTP_CLOCK_GETCAPS), is augmented allowing applications to query whether or not drivers implement the getcrosststamp callback, providing more precise cross timestamping.

Signed int - unsigned int comparison fixed in mpssd, prctl, ptp, and timers in Documentation.

2015-09-30testptp: Silence compiler warnings on ppc64Thomas Huth1-0/+1
When compiling Documentation/ptp/testptp.c the following compiler warnings are printed out: Documentation/ptp/testptp.c: In function ‘main’: Documentation/ptp/testptp.c:367:11: warning: format ‘%lld’ expects argument of type ‘long long int’, but argument 3 has type ‘__s64’ [-Wformat=] event.t.sec, event.t.nsec); ^ Documentation/ptp/testptp.c:505:5: warning: format ‘%lld’ expects argument of type ‘long long int’, but argument 2 has type ‘__s64’ [-Wformat=] (pct+2*i)->sec, (pct+2*i)->nsec); ^ Documentation/ptp/testptp.c:507:5: warning: format ‘%lld’ expects argument of type ‘long long int’, but argument 2 has type ‘__s64’ [-Wformat=] (pct+2*i+1)->sec, (pct+2*i+1)->nsec); ^ Documentation/ptp/testptp.c:509:5: warning: format ‘%lld’ expects argument of type ‘long long int’, but argument 2 has type ‘__s64’ [-Wformat=] (pct+2*i+2)->sec, (pct+2*i+2)->nsec); This happens because __s64 is by default defined as "long" on ppc64, not as "long long". However, to fix these warnings, it's possible to define the __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__ so that __s64 gets defined to "long long" on ppc64, too.

2014-10-25ptp: restore the makefile for building the test program.Richard Cochran1-0/+33
This patch brings back the makefile called testptp.mk which was removed in commit adb19fb66eee (Documentation: add makefiles for more targets). While the idea of that commit was to improve build coverage of the examples, the new Makefile is unable to cross compile the testptp program. In contrast, the deleted makefile was able to do this just fine. This patch fixes the regression by restoring the original makefile.

2011-05-24ptp: Added a brand new class driver for ptp clocks.Richard Cochran3-0/+503
This patch adds an infrastructure for hardware clocks that implement IEEE 1588, the Precision Time Protocol (PTP). A class driver offers a registration method to particular hardware clock drivers. Each clock is presented as a standard POSIX clock. The ancillary clock features are exposed in two different ways, via the sysfs and by a character device.
