Message-Id: <1221033149-15405-1-git-send-email-giometti@linux.it> Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2008 09:52:19 +0200 From: Rodolfo Giometti <giometti@...ux.it> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>, David Woodhouse <dwmw2@...radead.org>, Dave Jones <davej@...hat.com>, Sam Ravnborg <sam@...nborg.org>, Greg KH <greg@...ah.com>, Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@...cle.com>, Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@...y.org>, Alan Cox <alan@...rguk.ukuu.org.uk>, "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@...or.com>, Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu> Subject: LinuxPPS (RESUBMIT 7): the PPS Linux implementation. This patch set adds the PPS support into Linux. PPS means "pulse per second" and its API is specified by RFC 2783 (Pulse-Per-Second API for UNIX-like Operating Systems, Version 1.0). The code has been tested with the NTPD program (http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/html/index.html) and several GPS antennae. Changelog RESUBMIT 6 -> 7: * A new line discipline has been added in order to leave untouched the serial ports code (as suggested by Alan). * n_tty.c exports only GPL symbols. * ioctl numbers fixed in order to avoid any conflicts. * Last patch (0010-PPS-low-level-IRQ-timestamps-recording.patch) implements low level IRQs timestamps recording which mproves PPS precision but can be dropped for kernel inclusion! As suggested by Alan: "After that is sorted/merged we can come back to working out the best way to improve the IRQ and HARDPPS hacks."
