I think a combination of ptp4l sending notification on exit and phc2sys timing out when no reply is received in the pmc update interval (1 minute) would be good enough. Switching to the SEQPACKET socket seems like a lot of work and it wouldn't detect unresponsive ptp4l, which might be a useful thing to have (the same applies to the process monitoring). -- Miroslav Lichvar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ HPCC Systems Open Source Big Data Platform from LexisNexis Risk Solutions Find What Matters Most in Your Big Data with HPCC Systems Open Source.
