Hello

We try to implement Linuxptp on the following platform:
Intel Core i7 4700EQ
Ethernet controller: Intel I218-LM
Debian 8  - kernel 3.16.7
Driver: e1000e 3.1.0.2

Despite we use the last e1000e release, the synchronization fails from time to 
time in a way similar to the issue 
https://www.mail-archive.com/linuxptp-users%40lists.sourceforge.net/msg00089.html

Ptp4l log output:
ptp4l[282013.033]: rms 4967 max 13253 freq    +25 +/- 6813 delay 24447 +/- 2423

ptp4l[282018.163]: clockcheck: clock jumped forward or running faster than

delay 24286 +/- 2607
ptp4l[282020.040]: rms 6215 max 11297 freq  -3239 +/- 8480 delay 23951 +/- 2655
ptp4l[282021.040]: rms 5511 max 11347 freq  +1238 +/- 7033 delay 24534 +/- 2700
ptp4l[282022.041]: rms 4514 max 10977 freq   +634 +/- 6153 delay 25364 +/- 247

This issue happens when both ptp4l and phc2sys are running, and doesn't happen 
if phc2sys is not started.

As this issue should have been solved with the e1000e rev 3.0.4, does somebody 
know where is the problem (linuxptp, e1000e , I218, ...) ?

Regards

Marc Cognault
