On PTP clock you can't use nanosleep and neither you can't create timers. Once 
that your system time is synchronize with phc2sys you can use CLOCK_REALTIME or 
CLOCK_MONOTONIC to do this kind of things.

Hi all,

using linuxptp I can obtain a really good synchronization between multiple PCs.
I want to run an application on each of the PCs, the execution should be 
synchronized.
My idea was to use clock_nanosleep on the PTP clock (similar as the testptp 
does for getting the PTP clock time) using absolute time stamps to synchronize 
the running threads.
However this is not working as the PTP clocks do not have  nsleep implemented 
in the kernel (kernel 3.2.54-rt77).
Does this mean that I have to use phc2sys to use the system clock again?
Or is there any way to work directly on the PTP clock?
Thanks for all hints!

Best Regards

Mathias
