[Linuxptp-devel] [PATCH RFC v3 00/10] Profile support for IEEE C37.238-2011 and IEEE C37.238-2017

[Richard C. <ric...@gm...>]

ChangeLog:
v3 First public release
v2 never published
v1 never published

The Power Profiles need two TLVs:

1. IEEE_C37_238 TLV

   - New configuration option to enable the TLV.

   - New configuration options for grandmasterID and default
     totalTimeInaccuracy.

   - New custom management message for changing totalTimeInaccuracy at
     run time. This message allows switching the TLV from the 2017
     format into the 2011 format by specifying grandmasterTimeInaccuracy
     and networkTimeInaccuracy.

2. ALTERNATE_TIME_OFFSET_INDICATOR TLV

   - New custom management message for enabling the TLV and setting
     the TLV values.

   - New helper program that computes the values from the local time
     and the Linux time zone data base and then sends the values to
     ptp4l. This method assumes that the local Linux system time and
     the PHC clock are synchronized.

Comments and feedback are much appreciated!

Thanks,
Richard
