Just FYI, we don't have generic support for systems with both a MAC and a PHY PHC on the same interface. If and when you get a PHY driver, then you'll have to patch the MAC driver minimally to disable CPTS support and pass the ioctls through. > Is there any chance that a driver for the ar8031 with timestamping and > PHC support exists outside of mainline Linux so that we could still > potentially use this platform?

Yeah, a gigabit PHY with PHC would be great, but unfortunately I have not seen one yet. Too bad NatSemi^W TI didn't produce a GB phyter. Sorry, Richard PS IIRC, there is a technical hurdle to achieve real PHY time stamps in gigabit devices. Are you sure the Atheros time stamps in the PHY and not on the MII bus inputs/outputs?
