| 11 | The IEEE 1588 standard defines a method to precisely |
| 12 | synchronize distributed clocks over Ethernet networks. The |
| 13 | standard defines a Precision Time Protocol (PTP), which can |
| 14 | be used to achieve synchronization within a few dozen |
| 15 | microseconds. In addition, with the help of special hardware |
| 16 | time stamping units, it can be possible to achieve |
| 17 | synchronization to within a few hundred nanoseconds. |

| 19 | This driver adds support for PTP clocks as character |
| 20 | devices. If you want to use a PTP clock, then you should |
| 21 | also enable at least one clock driver as well. |
