The 15 standard defines a Precision Time Protocol (PTP), which can 16 be used to achieve synchronization within a few dozen 17 microseconds. In addition, with the help of special hardware 18 time stamping units, it can be possible to achieve 19 synchronization to within a few hundred nanoseconds. 20 21 This driver adds support for PTP clocks as character 22 devices. If you want to use a PTP clock, then you should 23 also enable at least one clock driver as well. 24 25 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 26 will be called ptp. 27 28config PTP_1588_CLOCK_GIANFAR 29 tristate "Freescale eTSEC as PTP clock" 30 depends on GIANFAR 31 depends on PTP_1588_CLOCK 32 default y 33 help 34 This driver adds support for using the eTSEC as a PTP 35 clock. This clock is only useful if your PTP programs are 36 getting hardware time stamps on the PTP Ethernet packets 37 using the SO_TIMESTAMPING API. 38 39 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module 40 will be called gianfar_ptp. 41 42config PTP_1588_CLOCK_IXP46X 43 tristate "Intel IXP46x as PTP clock" 44 depends on IXP4XX_ETH 45 depends on PTP_1588_CLOCK 46 default y 47 help 48 This driver adds support for using the IXP46X as a PTP 49 clock.
