Even with IEEE1588 you will not reach arbitrarily high precision if you have to do the timestamping of the received PTP packets in software only. I'm not aware of many ethernet controllers that are capable of detecting and timestamping PTP packets in hardware - actually the only one I know of is the one in the PPC405EZ.
