I have verified the kernel pps_api only looks at CD by building a patch cable to map the PPS signal into the CD pin and now all the pps_api calls work as expected.
It is still my position that the kernel pps_api should look at all commonly used control lines for PPS just like the pps-tools package does. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1938626 Title: PPS API broken Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux source package in Focal: New Bug description: The kernel PPS API appears to be broken. I have a serial GPS with PPS attached to /dev/ttyS4. If I use gpsd to create /dev/pps0, gpsd fails to see PPS data. If I disable gpsd and create /dev/pps0 with ldattach, any app or tool run against ttyS4 works fine and does see the CTS transitions every second, i.e. gpsmon and ppscheck. Anything run against pps0 fails, i.e. ppstest, ppswatch. ntpd gets data from ttyS4 but not pps0. There are some issues with stock apparmor with gpsd and ntpd, but I have solved those.
