Use the new options of ptp4l and phc2sys to tag their log messages with
the PTP domain number and name(s) of interface(s) in the domain.
Signed-off-by: Miroslav Lichvar <mlichvar@redhat.com>
When running multiple instances of ptp4l or phc2sys, it's difficult to
tell which log message belongs to which instance. Add new options to
ptp4l and phc2sys which can specify a tag for all messages printed to
the standard output or system log, so messages from different instances
can have different tags.

Currently UTC offset is defined as a constant - CURRENT_UTC_OFFSET, and if
a leap second is added, that constant is no longer valid. Ptp4l was
updated to read the UTC offset from configuration instead.

The state machines in 1588 do not specify an event that causes a transition
out of the initializing state. This was left as a local issue. For this
transition, the current code assigns the next state outside of the FSM. But
doing so prevents an alternative FSM to handle this transition differently.
By introducing a new event, this patch places this transition where it
belongs, namely under the control of the FSM code,

Although leaving the INITIALIZING state and clearing the FAULTY state
ASAP both result in a port entering the LISTENING state, still there
is no benefit from conflating the two. In the FAULTY case, the
current code actually skips the INITIALIZING state altogether.
This patch separates the two cases resulting in two benefits. First,
the check for ASAP fault status is only made when a fault is actually
present, unlike the present unconditional check. Second, this change
will allow us to cleanly support alternative state machines later on.

Looking at the fault logic in port_dispatch(), you might think that
the function, fault_interval(), checks whether a fault is active, but
you would be wrong, since that function always returns zero.
This patch removes the superfluous input error checking inside of
fault_interval() and changes the return type to void, making the
actual behavior explicit. Dropping the input check is safe because
that function has exactly two callers, both of whom always provide
valid inputs.

Poll for link up/down events. When a link goes down, the port becomes
faulty until the link goes up again. We keep the fault timer from the
existing fault detection, but a downed link prevents clear the fault.
The new state machine is depicted in this ascii art diagram:
+--------+ Fault +---------+
| |------------>| |
| UP | | FAULT |
| |<------------| |
+--------+ Timeout +---------+
A | /
| | /
Link-Up | | Link-Down /
| | /
| V /
+--------+ / Link-Down
| | /
| DOWN |<--------/
| |
+--------+
If the fault timer occurs in the DOWN state, we simply ignore it.
After all, without the link the port is useless.
There is one case where the new code changes the existing behavior.
If the link quickly does down and then up again while another fault
(and its timer) are active, then we will enter the UP state without
waiting for the fault timer expiration. However, this behavior is
acceptable because when a link goes up, you are starting with a clean
slate.

The time stamping setup code needlessly queries the configuration data

We activate on-step mode based on the "time_stamping" and
"twoStepFlag" configuration options. If twoStepFlag is false and HW
time stamping is enabled, we upgrade the time stamping mode variable
to one-step.
The code that tests the options and sets the one-step mode moved from
ptp4l.c into clock.c in commit 9b27664c ("clock: simplify the create
method."). However, that commit inadvertently moved the test after
the place where the time stamping mode is latched in a local variable.
As a result, one-step mode is not activated when configured.
This patch fixes the issue by keeping the local time stamping mode
variable up to date during the one-step test.

If a non-slave port on a boundary clock see an announce message, then it
must decide whether it should take on the MASTER or the PASSIVE role. When
the GM fields from the local clock are identical to those in the announce,
then the sender/receiver ports are used as a tie breaker.
Following a typographical error in 1588, the code wrongly uses the port
identity of the upstream parent as the "receiver" id. As a result, a port
that should be PASSIVE may choose MASTER instead. This patch fixes the
code to use local port id.

During the configuration rework, the announce span was wrongly converted
into a hard coded macro. In addition, the announceReceiptTimeout option
inadvertently became non-zero for the UDS port. As a result, the UDS port
sets a useless announce message timer, causing the code to close and reopen
the UDS port every few seconds.
This bug has an interesting history. It was first reported and fixed in
commit f36af8e0 ("uds: disable the accidentally enabled announce timer.").
That very fix was wrongly removed in commit 54f45063 ("port: change
'announce_span' into a macro."). Because of various code changes, this
bad commit cannot be simply reverted now.
This patch re-introduces the 'announce_span' variable and clears both it
and 'announceReceiptTimeout' for the UDS port, effectively disabling the
announce message timer.

When the P2P link partner is using one shot mode, the residence time
in the peer (t3 - t2) is reflected in the correction field of the
peer delay response message, and t2 and t3 are both zero.
The function port_peer_delay() calls clock_peer_delay(), passing in
the zero valued 't2' to the 'rx' argument. The latter function then
stores the zero value in the 't4' field of the clock's tsproc
instance.
As a result, tsproc_update_offset() returns an error to
clock_synchronize(), and so a slave clock will never leave the
"uncalibrated" state.
This patch fixes the issue by removing the test for a non-zero 't4'
field within the tsproc.
