2012-11-03ptp: update adjfreq callback descriptionJacob Keller1-1/+2
This patch updates the adjfreq callback description to include a note that the delta in ppb is always relative to the base frequency, and not to the current frequency of the hardware clock.

2012-09-22ptp: clarify the clock_name sysfs attributeRichard Cochran1-1/+3
There has been some confusion among PHC driver authors about the intended purpose of the clock_name attribute. This patch expands the documation in order to clarify how the clock_name field should be understood. Signed-off-by: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-09-22ptp: link the phc device to its parent deviceRichard Cochran1-2/+5
PTP Hardware Clock devices appear as class devices in sysfs. This patch changes the registration API to use the parent device, clarifying the clock's relationship to the underlying device.

2012-09-08pps/ptp: Allow PHC devices to adjust PPS events for known delayBen Hutchings1-2/+8
Initial version by Stuart Hodgson <smhodgson@solarflare.com> Some PHC device drivers may deliver PPS events with a significant and variable delay, but still be able to measure precisely what that delay is. Add a pps_sub_ts() function for subtracting a delay from the timestamp(s) in a PPS event, and a PTP event type (PTP_CLOCK_PPSUSR) for which the caller provides a complete PPS event.

2012-04-04ptp: Add a method for obtaining the device index.Richard Cochran1-0/+8
This commit adds a method that MAC drivers may call in order to find out the device number of their associated PTP Hardware Clock. Signed-off-by: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-05-24ptp: Added a brand new class driver for ptp clocks.Richard Cochran1-0/+139
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.
