PTP defines mechanisms for announcing UTC offsets and upcoming leap
seconds. It's not particularly elegant and has some ambiguities, but
it's sufficient. ptp4l and phc2sys work together to handle UTC offsets
and leap seconds reported by a master.

I was just pointing out that linuxptp, if running as a grandmaster,
has no mechanism for detecting and communicating upcoming leap seconds
to slaves. You can issue some GRANDMASTER_SETTINGS_NP pmc commands to
make it work but it could be a pretty complex orchestration.
