Up until now, there was no way to let the user select the hardware
PTP provider at which time stamping occurs. The stack assumed that PHY time
stamping is always preferred, but some MAC/PHY combinations were buggy.
This series updates the default MAC/PHY default timestamping and aims to
allow the user to select the desired hwtstamp provider administratively.
Changes in v10:
- Move declarations to net/core/dev.h instead of netdevice.h
- Add netlink documentation.
- Add ETHTOOL_A_TSINFO_GHWTSTAMP netlink attributes instead of a bit in
ETHTOOL_A_TSINFO_TIMESTAMPING bitset.
- Send "Move from simple ida to xarray" patch standalone.
- Add tsinfo ntf command.
- Add rcu_lock protection mechanism to avoid memory leak.
- Fixed doc and kdoc issue.
- Link to v9: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]
Changes in v9:
- Remove the RFC prefix.
- Correct few NIT fixes.
- Link to v8: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]
Changes in v8:
- Drop the 6 first patch as they are now merged.
- Change the full implementation to not be based on the hwtstamp layer
(MAC/PHY) but on the hwtstamp provider which mean a ptp clock and a
phc qualifier.
- Made some patch to prepare the new implementation.
- Expand netlink tsinfo instead of a new ts command for new hwtstamp
configuration uAPI and for dumping tsinfo of specific hwtstamp provider.
- Link to v7: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]
Changes in v7:
- Fix a temporary build error.
- Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]
Changes in v6:
- Few fixes from the reviews.
- Replace the allowlist to default_timestamp flag to know which phy is
using old API behavior.
- Rename the timestamping layer enum values.
- Move to a simple enum instead of the mix between enum and bitfield.
- Update ts_info and ts-set in software timestamping case.
Changes in v5:
- Update to ndo_hwstamp_get/set. This bring several new patches.
- Add few patches to make the glue.
- Convert macb to ndo_hwstamp_get/set.
- Add netlink specs description of new ethtool commands.
- Removed netdev notifier.
- Split the patches that expose the timestamping to userspace to separate
the core and ethtool development.
- Add description of software timestamping.
- Convert PHYs hwtstamp callback to use kernel_hwtstamp_config.
Changes in v4:
- Move on to ethtool netlink instead of ioctl.
- Add a netdev notifier to allow packet trapping by the MAC in case of PHY
time stamping.
- Add a PHY whitelist to not break the old PHY default time-stamping
preference API.
Changes in v3:
- Expose the PTP choice to ethtool instead of sysfs.
You can test it with the ethtool source on branch feature_ptp of:
https://github.com/kmaincent/ethtool
- Added a devicetree binding to select the preferred timestamp.
Changes in v2:
- Move selected_timestamping_layer variable of the concerned patch.
- Use sysfs_streq instead of strmcmp.
- Use the PHY timestamp only if available.
