hi Richard,
Did few more iterations of testing (ptp4l in BC mode) by resetting TestUnit.
Still observing "send sync error" with txtimeout of 100ms.
Question:
1) ptp4l is running in BC mode providing clock to other connected TestUnits and
syncing clock from another BC/GM.
But in the below case, it would be blocked for almost 100ms (1/10 sec)
Wouldn't this impact ptp packets to testunit or handling ptp packets from
BC/GM?
res = poll(&pfd, 1, sk_tx_timeout);
if (res < 1) {
Sync and Announcement packets values as below

hi Richard,
With Step 1, it seems to be working fine, will try few more variations and
check.
Thank you for your help.
But have few questions:
Patches provided doesn't seems to have any relation with error "timed out while
polling for tx timestamp" which occurred while transmitting Sync packets on
master side. I'm not observing this error, any reason why?
After recover/reboot of remote system, phc offset of the interface connected to
TestUnit/remote system seems to be struck at improper value.

1. Make sure your ptp4l has these five patches:
a082bcd clockcheck: Increase minimum interval.
6df8425 port: Don't renew raw transport.
e117e37 port: Don't check timestamps from non-slave ports.
262a49b clock: Reset clock check on best clock/port change.
7e8eba5 clock: Reset state when switching port with same best clock.
If that doesn't fix the problem, then:
2. Disable clock sanity check.
sanity_freq_limit
The maximum allowed frequency offset between uncorrected clock
and the system monotonic clock in parts per billion (ppb). This
is used as a sanity check of the synchronized clock. When a
larger offset is measured, a warning message will be printed and
the servo will be reset. When set to 0, the sanity check is dis‐
abled. The default is 200000000 (20%).
