This is CLOCK_MONOTONIC.

Not really.  The point of the PTP stack is to make the slave clock the
same as the master's, but there are always log messages before that
happens.

You *can* post process the CLOCK_MONOTONIC from the synchronization
point backwards and reconstruct the master time stamps from the
monotonic time stamps.
