The ptp_pch driver is for a companion chip to the Intel Atom E600 series processors. These are 32-bit x86 processors so the driver is only needed on X86_32.

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.

Supports the DP83640 PHYTER with IEEE 1588 features.

In order for this to work, your MAC driver must also

implement the skb_tx_timestamp() function.

This driver adds support for using the PCH EG20T as a PTP

|
delay mechansim (P2P) is not supported.
