The poll() call is waiting for the descriptor, so it should return as soon as the timestamp is ready. The option sets the maximum time it waits. I'm ok with increasing the default timeout. As a future improvement, maybe it could be adaptive, e.g. once in a while try waiting much longer and if that doesn't give a timestamp stick to a shorter interval. That is, try to detect when the hardware is not able to timestamp all packets. -- Miroslav Lichvar _______________________________________________ Linuxptp-devel mailing list Linuxptp-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linuxptp-devel
