I browsed both the linuxptp devel and user mail archives, but couldn't see any email thread about RHEL back porting of linuxptp and ethtool. Perhaps I didn't look at the right places or missed it. Does someone know where the relevant information is located? I would much appreciate to learn about the specific issues of back porting in the past and how they were solved or still remain unsolved? Does 'buggy' refer to the PTP protocol itself or accuracy achievement or both?
For deployment with software timestamping, there is no need to back port the PHC and to run the phc2sys program. Is that correct? And changes to PTP protocol stack in the user space are necessary if an implementation does not make use of SO_TIMESTAMPING socket, but have instead some non-generic TX/RX FPGA-based hardware timestamping.
