This seems to imply that the PPS timestamps are from the PHC. So one can
compute the offset from the GPS time, and use that to discipline the PHC
clock.

I am a bit confused about this. Doesn't the PHC generate it's own PPS?
Which is used when the -d option to phc2sys is used? The phc2sys code seems
to imply that the PPS timestamps for this are the system clock. Is this
correct?

Then what does it mean to "feed the PPS from the GPS into the PHC"?

I'm new to ptp4l, and any help will be much appreciated.
