The interface could have been made more versatile by not depending on a time counter, but this wasn't done to avoid writing glue code elsewhere. The method implemented here is the one used and analyzed under the name "assisted PTP" in the LCI PTP paper: http://www.linuxclustersinstitute.org/conferences/archive/2008/PDF/Ohly_92221.pdf Signed-off-by: Patrick Ohly --- include/linux/clocksync.h | 85 +++++++++++++++++++++ kernel/time/Makefile | 2 +- kernel/time/clocksync.c | 182 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 268 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) create mode 100644 include/linux/clocksync.h create mode 100644 kernel/time/clocksync.c diff --git a/include/linux/clocksync.h b/include/linux/clocksync.h new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d2f93f8 --- /dev/null +++ b/include/linux/clocksync.h @@ -0,0 +1,85 @@ +/* + * Utility code which helps transforming between hardware time stamps + * generated by a clocksource and system time.
