I think that
- linuxptp should support the Linux kernel's APIs.
- It should NOT become a collection of HW specific hacks!
- The kernel should hide the HW differences in a reasonable way.
- We can expand the API/ioctls to support new hardware features, but
again the API ought to support multiple devices, not just the
latest random HW design.
- HW designers should think their designs through before they
inflict us with their new stuff. It never hurts to ask SW people
beforehand what will work. Hey, we'll even answer questions on
this list, for free!
WRT the question of the TC implementation, 2-step is the only mode
that is sure to work with all HW today.
Thanks,
Richard
