Some boards (but not yours) have PPS-in direct timestamping.  Some iMX6s have 
this.  You’ll still need to mod the driver as it only handles PPS-out, but

it’s < 25ns accurate once running.

 

There’s just far too much latency for PPS-in via GPIO to be useful.

Dear Richard,

Thank you for your response.

How do we discipline the clocks to the global GPS time? using the software time 
stamping from /dev/pps0? using linuxptp scenario defined previously?

How to implement a better source for PTP GM? Do you have any exact suggestions?

Regards,

Andrei

So you want to discipline your two PHC clocks to the global GPS time?

What are you trying to do?

Remember that /dev/pps0 is using software time stamping, and as such
it makes a relatively poor source for a PTP GM.

Thanks,
Richard
