13 The IEEE 1588 standard defines a method to precisely
14 synchronize distributed clocks over Ethernet networks. The
15 standard defines a Precision Time Protocol (PTP), which can
16 be used to achieve synchronization within a few dozen
17 microseconds. In addition, with the help of special hardware
18 time stamping units, it can be possible to achieve
19 synchronization to within a few hundred nanoseconds.

21 This driver adds support for PTP clocks as character
22 devices. If you want to use a PTP clock, then you should
23 also enable at least one clock driver as well.
