Hi Richard
Would it be Ok if I use the flags to differentiate extts events from extoff?

 struct ptp_extts_event {
-       struct ptp_clock_time t; /* Time event occured. */
+       union {
+               struct ptp_clock_time t; /* Time event occurred. */
+               __s64 offset_ns;         /* Offset event occurred. */
+       };
         unsigned int index;      /* Which channel produced the event. */
         unsigned int flags;      /* Reserved for future use. */
         unsigned int rsv[2];     /* Reserved for future use. */
