Matthew has it right. We already set the value via the hwtstamp_ioctl, and we set the actual value that we are timestamping. The ioctl will return at least what you requested, or an error. You can check the results of the ioctl by checking the hwtstamp_config structure after calling the ioctl and make sure you got what you want. You can't modify the userspace ABI because that would break old applications, and cause even more headache for PTP application developers. Furthermore, you haven't sufficiently explained a use case that requires the ability to check without setting. You can already query if the driver is capable of timestamping something, and can set and then query to ensure that you got at least what you requested... You need to explain why you need a new use case if you want to expose another method for accessing the information. - Jake ????{.n?+???????+%?????ݶ??w??{.n?+????{??G?????{ay?ʇڙ?,j??f???h?????????z_??(?階?ݢj"???m??????G????????????&???~???iO???z??v?^?m???? ????????I?
