I'm seeing behaviour on rebooting a Raspberry Pi Linux system which is

good enough lock to be acquired.

However, it seems that if the PPS part of the kernel hasn't seen a
transition, it does not create the pps device at least until the first
transition is seen.  The delay seems to be some 133 seconds here:


Does this seem possible, and how might it be fixed?

Thanks, uwe, but I'm not sure that it does - perhaps I cannot see the wood for the trees! I have seen that article before, but I am very new to Linux. I /am/ seeing the PPS start, but it needs a reboot before NTP sees it. Am I correct in thinking that the 133 seconds delay before "PPS line discipline registered" is significant in this problem?

Which part of the article or what keyword should I be looking for?
