I had been running with a USB GPS for years and recently purchased a GOOD GNSS
device, so I have not had anything on this machine that accesses the pps_api
until a few days ago.
FYI I have a Raspberry Pi with Ubuntu where the pps_api works with
raspberrypi-kernel 1:1.2010727-1 if that is of any help.
I see two other kernels installed: 5.4.0-54 and 5.4.0-77.
Any suggestion on which to try as it is somewhat of a PITA to do this, would
rather do it just once, and will have to schedule a time, hopefully in a day or
so.
Also I have had no reason to do this for years and have forgotten how. As I
recall, it is just hold down a key while rebooting to get to the menu to select
a kernel, but don't remember which key.

Hello Jim,
Did it work before with your system and got broken after a kernel
update? If yes, would you be able to identify the kernel version which
was working before? If you didn't run this use case before, would you be
able to boot with an older kernel version and check whether it works?
Thanks.

Title:
PPS API broken
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in linux source package in Focal:
New
Bug description:
The kernel PPS API appears to be broken. I have a serial GPS with PPS
attached to /dev/ttyS4. If I use gpsd to create /dev/pps0, gpsd fails
to see PPS data. If I disable gpsd and create /dev/pps0 with ldattach,
any app or tool run against ttyS4 works fine and does see the CTS
transitions every second, i.e. gpsmon and ppscheck. Anything run
against pps0 fails, i.e. ppstest, ppswatch. ntpd gets data from ttyS4
but not pps0.
There are some issues with stock apparmor with gpsd and ntpd, but I
have solved those.
