ABI: sysfs-ptp: use wildcards on What definitions

2021-09-21T16:31:17Z

An "N" upper letter is not a wildcard, nor can easily be identified by script, specially since the USB sysfs define things like. bNumInterfaces. Use, instead, , in order to let script/get_abi.pl to convert it into a Regex.

ptp: support ptp physical/virtual clocks conversion

2021-07-01T20:08:18Z

Support ptp physical/virtual clocks conversion via sysfs. There will be a new attribute n_vclocks under ptp physical clock sysfs. - In default, the value is 0 meaning only ptp physical clock is in use. - Setting the value can create corresponding number of ptp virtual clocks to use. But current physical clock is guaranteed to stay free running. - Setting the value back to 0 can delete virtual clocks and back use physical clock again. Another new attribute max_vclocks control the maximum number of ptp vclocks. Signed-off-by: Yangbo Lu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ptp: clarify the clock_name sysfs attribute

2012-09-22T19:42:46Z

There has been some confusion among PHC driver authors about the intended purpose of the clock_name attribute. This patch expands the documation in order to clarify how the clock_name field should be understood. Signed-off-by: Richard Cochran Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ptp: Added a brand new class driver for ptp clocks.

2011-05-23T20:01:00Z

This patch adds an infrastructure for hardware clocks that implement IEEE 1588, the Precision Time Protocol (PTP). A class driver offers a registration method to particular hardware clock drivers. Each clock is presented as a standard POSIX clock. The ancillary clock features are exposed in two different ways, via the sysfs and by a character device.
