14 The IEEE 1588 standard defines a method to precisely
15 synchronize distributed clocks over Ethernet networks. The
16 standard defines a Precision Time Protocol (PTP), which can
17 be used to achieve synchronization within a few dozen
18 microseconds. In addition, with the help of special hardware
19 time stamping units, it can be possible to achieve
20 synchronization to within a few hundred nanoseconds.
22 This driver adds support for PTP clocks as character
23 devices. If you want to use a PTP clock, then you should
24 also enable at least one clock driver as well.

53 programs are getting hardware time stamps on the PTP Ethernet
54 packets using the SO_TIMESTAMPING API.
