It is the offset with respect to the PTP master. In the case of
software time stamping, this is also the drift of the Linux system
clock WRT the PTP master. Using hardware time stamping, this is the
drift of the PTP hardware clock.

I would only do this if you also have "free_running 1" in the
configuration file (and your system time is managed by NTP).

You can simply do the same as in the slave case.
phc2sys -s /dev/ptp -w
The grand master node will adjust its system time to the free running
PTP Hardware Clock. You will want to set the correct time in the PHC
before doing this!
