process. This patch adds background support for handling the flag.

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.

In port_synchronize(), when the clock returned SERVO_UNLOCKED and

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 implements transmission and receipt of message interval requests.
Using this mechanism, a time-aware device can request change in sync,
link delay and announce intervals on the device connected on the other
end.

and Sync Interval.

In logic, when we want to switch phc, we should check if the new phc
index is valid instead of checking the previous one.
In reality, if we use linux team interface with activebackup mode. As
teamd is a userspace tool, it sets the new slave as active port after
receiving link change message. If we set current active port down and
another slave up. There is a race that we receive the new slave's link
up message while active port(ts_index) is still the old one. This means
we may use a link down interface as ts_index and get phc_index with -1.
If we update the p->phc_index to -1, there will be no possibility to
change it back to other value as we swith phc only when p->phc_index >= 0.
With this fix, we will not switch phc_index until receiving the real
active port(p->iface->ts_info.phc_index >= 0) update message.

The "inhibit_announce" and "ignore_source_id" options were introduced
in order to support the automotive profile. That profile happens to
specify using the peer to peer delay mechanism, but there is no reason
to restrict them to that mechanism. As it now stands, enabling these
two options prevents E2E slaves from synchronizing. This patch fixes
the issue by checking the "ignore_source_id" option when accepting E2E
delay response messages.

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.
