[Linuxptp-users] Issue in Hardware timestamping with I210 NIC

[Aman S. <ama...@gm...>]

Hi All,

We have intel I210Nic card inserted in x86 machine Ubuntu 12.10 with kernel
3.5.0-17-generic version.

When we are trying to run Linux ptp with hardware timestamp mode, it gives
below error message:
*interface does not support requested timestamping mode*

we are trying to compile I210 igb driver with PTP option gives following
error:

*make CFLAGS_EXTRA="-DIGB_PTP" install*
*
*
*/home/user/Downloads/igb-4.3.0/src/kcompat.h:3454:2: error: #error Cannot
enable PTP Hardware Clock support due to a pre-3.0 kernel version or **
CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK** not enabled in the kernel.*
*
*
As my kernel version is more then 3.0, Please help me to
enable CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK support in kernel.

Thanks in advance for your precious help and time.

You will have to compile your own kernel.

There are lots and lots of tutorials out there on how to do
it. However, this list is *not* the place to teach you how to compile
a kernel.

Sorry,
