This series adds phc2sys configuration file support. Right now all the command line options are supported. Like ptp4l, any existing command line arguments supersede configuration file. Also, while the generic options which appear to be simlar for both ptp4l and phc2sys are read from [global], all options can be specified in [phc2sys] overriding settings from [global] (but not the command line).
I didn't think the effort necessary to re-write the configuration such that it was more generic was worth it. Thus, there is some level of code duplication as phc2sys does not need the same configuration values as ptp4l. I did update the manuals, and have done some minor (compile and a few run time checks) testing. However currently this series is more of an RFC. The intention is to enable additional non-command line options for phc2sys. We could even deprecate several current phc2sys options which are no longer necessary (similar to ptp4l which has many config options but few command line parameters). In addition this opens the door to bring several settings from ptp4l into phc2sys (like the PI servo settings).
