Where a PTP clock driver is associated with a net or PHY driver, it should be enabled automatically whenever that driver is enabled. Therefore: - Make PTP clock drivers select rather than depending on PTP_1588_CLOCK - Remove separate boolean options for PTP clock drivers that are built as part of net driver modules. (This also fixes cases where the PTP subsystem is wrongly forced to be built-in.) - Set 'default y' for PTP clock drivers that depend on specific net drivers but are built separately Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The IEEE 1588 standard defines a method to precisely
|
|
synchronize distributed clocks over Ethernet networks. The
|
|
standard defines a Precision Time Protocol (PTP), which can
|
|
be used to achieve synchronization within a few dozen
|
|
microseconds. In addition, with the help of special hardware
|
|
time stamping units, it can be possible to achieve
|
|
synchronization to within a few hundred nanoseconds.

This driver adds support for PTP clocks as character
|
|
devices. If you want to use a PTP clock, then you should
|
|
also enable at least one clock driver as well.
