This patch adds a new module for slave event monitoring with its own
configuration option, a UDS address. If the option is enabled, then
the monitor will send events to the configured address. The default
setting produces an inactive monitor that does nothing.

Recently the Linux kernel's PTP Hardware Clock interface was expanded
to include a "write phase" mode where the clock servo in implemented
in hardware. This mode hearkens back to the tradition ntp_adjtime
interface, passing a measured offset into the kernel's servo.
This patch adds a new configuration option and logic to support the
write phase mode.
Because the hardware's adjustment bandwidth may be limited, this mode
is only activated when the servo reaches SERVO_LOCKED_STABLE state, in
order to achieve reasonably fast locking times. Users may control the
SERVO_LOCKED_STABLE state by configuring 'servo_offset_threshold' and
'servo_num_offset_values' accordingly.
Example configuration file highlights:
unicast_listen 1
logSyncInterval 0
logMinDelayReqInterval 0
first_step_threshold 0.001000000
step_threshold 0
clock_servo pi
write_phase_mode 1
servo_offset_threshold 50
servo_num_offset_values 10
tsproc_mode raw

The logic for the Automotive Profile added a message interval update
mechanism that triggers whenever the servo enters the "stable locked"
state. This SERVO_LOCKED_STABLE state is active when the
configuration option servo_offset_threshold is non-zero and
servo_offset_threshold criteria is satisfied.
However, in general, the state of the servo can and should be
independent of any profile specific optional behavior. In particular,
the "stable locked" state will be used in the future to trigger other
kinds useful logic. For example, an upcoming write phase mode feature
would like to take advantage of the SERVO_LOCKED_STABLE state to
trigger its activation.
This patch introduces a proper configuration option to enable
transmission of the message interval request that is specific to the
Automotive Profile.

Many GPS radios provide both a 1-PPS and time of day information via
NMEA sentences. This patch introduces a ts2phc master that decodes
the "recommended minimum data" sentence, RMC, which provides UTC time
and a validity flag. Together with the file based leap second table,
this sentence provides adequate time of day for determining the time
of the PPS edge.

Some PTP Hardware Clocks have input pins that can generate time stamps
on the edges of external signals. This functionality can be used in
various ways. For example, one can synchronize a PHC device to a
global time source by taking a Pulse Per Second signal from the source
into the PHC. This patch adds support for synchronizing one or more
PHC slaves to a given master clock.
The implementation follows a modular design that allows adding
different kinds of master clocks in the future. This patch starts off
with a single "generic" PPS master, meaning a PPS signal that lacks
and time or date information. The generic master assumes that the
Linux system time is approximately correct (by NTP or RTC for example)
in order to calculate the time of the incoming PPS edges.

Add provision to disable delay requests. Designated masters who do not
need to calculate pdelay can use this option. This is required by
Automotive Profile to reduce network load.

This commit adds functionality to increase the sync and pdelay request
intervals once gptp synchronization has been achieved. This is useful
while running Automotive Profile where the network is usually static.
Here, we are assuming that the gPTP synchronization is achieved whenever
the last 'n' offsets calculated using the Sync messages are below a
certain threshold. Both, the number of offsets to consider and the offset
threshold are configurable.
In order to support the interval update, a new clock servo state
CLOCK_SERVO_STABLE has been added. The clock will transition to this
state whenever the above condition is satisfied. When this transition
occurs, the slave will send an "interval request" signaling message
asking the master to change the sync interval. It will also update the
pdelay request interval locally.
Four new config options have been added to provide this functionality:
- servo_offset_threshold: All the offset values being considered should
be below this value.
- servo_num_offset_values: number of previously received offset values
to consider.
- operLogSyncInterval: slave will ask the master to switch to this
interval for sending sync messages when the offset stabilizes.
- operLogPdelayReqInterval: the slave will set this interval for pdelay
request messages when the offset stabilizes.

This config option will skip the source port identity verification in

This option will accomplish 2 things. On the master, it will stop the

This adds config option to specify static roles for master and slave
in the Best Master Clock Algorithm. This is the case for Automotive
Profile where networks are mostly static and role for each device is
known in advance.
masterOnly and slaveOnly will be used to determine the roles for the
devices. Since masterOnly is a per-port config and slaveOnly is a global
config option, role assignment will be slightly odd in case of bridges.
If slaveOnly is set to 1, all the ports will be in slave roles except
for the ones where masterOnly is set to 1. These ports will assume the
master role.
Two new FSMs which will be used for master and slave roles for this
config option have also been added.

This patch adds configuration file support for a table of unicast
masters. Each table lives in its own section and has a unique,
positive numerical ID. Entries in the table are a pair of transport
type and protocol address.
Each port may specify a table id to be used for unicast negotiation.
Tables may not be shared between ports, but nothing prevents table
entries from appearing in more than table.

When masterOnly is true, the port always returns NULL when computing
its best foreign master. As a result, the port will never enter the
SLAVE state, and the clock will ignore Announce messages received on
that port.
This attribute is specifically called out in G.8275.1 and G.8275.2,
and it is implied by the "master only" mode G.8265.1. In addition,
this option will probably appear in the next revision of IEEE 1588.

The draft Enterprise Profile [1] specifies a hybrid E2E delay mechanism,
where the delay response message is sent "in kind". That is, if the
request is unicast, then the response is also unicast. Apparently this
scheme is already in widespread use in some industries. Also, it makes
sense, because those messages are of no interest to the other slaves in
the PTP network.
Because of the address work already in place, in turns out that adding
this mode is almost trivial. This patch introduces an "hybrid_e2e" option
that enabled the new mode.
