When using the "free running" option, a slaved port remains in the
UNCALIBRATED state. If the actual servo resides in and external program,
for example when following the 802.1AS recommendations, that program can
signal the synchronization state using the "synchronization uncertain"
management message. This patch lets the port state transitions from
UNCALIBRATED to SLAVE based on that message.

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.

There are several issues surrounding leap seconds that emerge when a clock
takes on the Grand Master role. One of them is the fact that GPS radios
provide time of day in the UTC time scale and not in TAI, and they do not,
in general, provide any conversion information. Another issue is the
expectation that the GM provide correct leap second status flags to the
network. Although both NTP and GPS do, in theory, provide on-line leap
second status, in practice the information is not reliable due to poor
implementations.
In order to provide correct leap second status and TAI - UTC offsets,
this patch introduces a leap second table based on the information
published by the IETF and NIST. The hard coded default table can be
updated at run time by reading the standard leap seconds file from the
commonly used tzdata package.

This patch introduces a new ts2phc source using a PHC device. There
are multiple use cases for such a master. By connecting pins of two
or more separate PHC devices together, one may act as the source, and
the others may be synchronized to it in hardware. In this way, "just
a bunch of devices" together forms a Transparent Clock. If the master
clock is synchronized to a global time source (like a PPS from a GPS),
then the system becomes a mutli-port Grand Master or a Boundary Clock
with GM capability.

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.

If more than one local UDS client subscribes to push notifications,
only the last one receives data from the ptp4l service. This happens
because ptp4l uses the PortIdentity as a unique key to track client
subscriptions. As a result, it is not possible for both phc2sys and
pmc to receive push notifications at the same time, for example.
This patch sets the PortIdentity.portNumber attribute of UDS clients
to the local process ID, making each such client subscription unique.
