Hello,

I have studied documentation for IEEE 1588 PTP and Intel 82576 with IGB driver.
But I don't get HW timestamps in sending PTP packets?

I am using
linux kernel 2.6.37.6
igb driver 3.1.16

I downloaded a ptpd which works without hw timestamping very well.
When adding hw support nothing happens?

As described in linux documentation following seems to be (additionally) 
necessary:
ioctl(sock, SIOCSHWTSTAMP, &hwtstamp) with HWTSTAMP_TX_ON
setsockopt(sock, SOL_SOCKET, SO_TIMESTAMP, &temp, sizeof(int))
so_timestamping_flags = SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_HARDWARE | 
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_HARDWARE | SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE;
setsockopt(sock, SOL_SOCKET, SO_TIMESTAMPING, &so_timestamping_flags, 
sizeof(so_timestamping_flags))

Can you give me a hint how it works as wanted?
Does the 82576 place the timestamps (only) in ptp packets?
The offset in the packets is not always the same - how is this handled?

Looking forward to your answer I say thank you.

Kind regards
Stefan Plank
