Jake, I am not sure what you are trying to say here...

If the port link does down, then the fault it normal and expected.
After at most fifteen seconds after the link comes back, you should
see the fault cleared, just like in the log output you sent today.

   ptp4l[9130]: port 1: SLAVE to FAULTY on FAULT_DETECTED
   ptp4l[9130]: port 1: FAULTY to LISTENING on FAULT_CLEARED

HTH,
