If messages are not freed, it is possible (with purposely crafted traffic) to trigger
a peer delay calculation which will use message's data from the previous round.

When a port makes a transition from one state to another, it resets all of
the message timers. While this is the correct behavior for E2E mode, the
P2P mode requires sending peer delay requests most of the time.
Even though all the other timer logic is identical, still making an
exception for P2P mode would make the code even harder to follow. So this
patch introduces two nearly identical helper functions to handle timer
reprogramming during a state transition.

There really is no such state, but there probably should have been one.
In any case, we do have one just to make the code simpler, but this should

A timeout of 15 seconds is not always acceptable, make it configurable.
By popular consensus, instead of using a linear number of seconds, use
the 2^N format for the time interval, just like the other intervals in
the PTP data sets. In addition to numeric values, let the configuration
file support 'ASAP' to have the fault reset immediately.
[RC - moved the handling of special case tmo=0 and added a break out
of the fd event loop in case the fds have been closed.
- changed the linear seconds option to log second instead.
- changed the commit message to reflect the final version. ]

This patch implements the capable flag as follows.
1. After calculating the neighbor rate, we are capable.
2. If we miss too many responses, we are incapable.
3. If we get multiple responses, we throw a fault,
and so we are also incapable.

We use the follow_up_info to control behavior that is specific to the
802.1AS standard. In several instances, that standard goes against the
1588 standard or requires new run time logic that exceeds what can be
reasonably described as a 1588 profile.
Since we will need a few more run time exceptions in order to support
802.1AS, we introduce a helper function to identify this case, rather
than hard coding a test for follow_up_info, in order to be more clear
about it.

The Linux kernel supports a hardware time stamping mode that allows
sending a one step sync message. This commit adds support for this mode
by expanding the time stamp type enumeration. In order to enable this
mode, the configuration must specify both hardware time stamping and set
the twoStepFlag to false.
We still do not support the one step peer delay request mechanism since
there is neither kernel nor hardware support for it at this time.

this patch changes sk_interface_phc to sk_get_ts_info, by allowing the function
to store all the data returned by Ethtool's get_ts_info IOCTL in a struct. A new
struct "sk_ts_info" contains the same data as well as a field for specifying the
structure as valid (in order to support old kernels without the IOCTL). The
valid field should be set only when the IOCTL successfully populates the fields.
A follow-on patch will add new functionality possible because of these
changes. This patch only updates the programs which use the call to perform the
minimum they already do, using the new interface.

When computing a port's best foreign master, we make use of a message
reference that possibly might have been dropped by calling msg_put in
the fc_prune subroutine. This commit fixes the issue by copying the
needed data from the message before pruning.
[ Actually, since msg_put only places the message into a list without
altering its contents, there was no ill effect. But using a message
after having released it is just plain wrong. ]

Under Linux, when the link goes down our multicast socket becomes stale.
We always poll(2) for events, but the link down does not trigger any event
to let us know that something is wrong. Once the port enters master mode
and starts announcing itself, the socket throws an error. This in turn
causes a fault, and we reopen the socket when clearing the fault.
However, in the case of slave only mode, if the port is listening then
it will never send, discover the link error, or repair the socket. This
patch fixes the issue by simply reopening the socket after an announce
timeout.
[ Another way would be to use a netlink socket, but that would add too
much complexity as it poorly matches our port/interface model. ]

The message code is horribly broken in three ways.
1. Clearing the message also sets the reference count to zero.
2. The recycling code in msg_put does not test the reference count.
3. The allocation code does not remove the message from the pool,
although this code was never reached because of point 2.
This patch fixes the issues and also adds some debugging code to trace
the message pool statistics.

If the new ethtool operation is supported, then use it to verify that the PHC
selected by the user is correct. If the user doesn't specify a PHC and ethtool
is supported then automatically select the PHC device.
If the user specifies a PHC device, and the ethtool operation is suppported,
automatically confirm that the PHC device requested is correct. This check is
performed for all ports, in order to verify that a boundary clock setup is
valid.
The check for PHC device validity is not done in the transport because the
only thing necessary for performing the check is the port name. Handled this
in the port_open code instead.
