OK, thanks for elaborating. Let's see if I understand: the problem is
that you would need to allocate a dedicated IP address for each
connected interface for UDP-based PTP to work. Is that right?

It looks like you've spent a lot of time implementing this. Could you
talk about other possible solutions you considered, and why this one
is the best?

Could you use L2 PTP (ptp4l option "network_transport L2") instead so
that you don't have to assign IP addresses?
