Vladimir Oltean says:

====================
PTP support for the SJA1105 DSA driver

This patchset adds the following:

 - A timecounter/cyclecounter based PHC for the free-running
   timestamping clock of this switch.

 - A state machine implemented in the DSA tagger for SJA1105, which
   keeps track of metadata follow-up Ethernet frames (the switch's way
   of transmitting RX timestamps).

Clock manipulations on the actual hardware PTP clock will have to be
implemented anyway, for the TTEthernet block and the time-based ingress
policer.

v3 patchset can be found at:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/6/4/954

Changes from v3:

- Made it compile with the SJA1105 DSA driver and PTP driver as modules.

- Reworked/simplified/fixed some issues in 03/17
  (dsa_8021q_remove_header) and added an ASCII image that
  illustrates the transformation that is taking place.

- Removed a useless check for sja1105_is_link_local from 16/17 (RX
  timestamping) which also made previous 08/17 patch ("Move
  sja1105_is_link_local to include/linux") useless and therefore dropped.

v2 patchset can be found at:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/6/2/146

Changes from v2:

- Broke previous 09/10 patch (timestamping) into multiple smaller
  patches.

- Every patch in the series compiles.

v1 patchset can be found at:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/5/28/1093

Changes from v1:

- Removed the addition of the DSA .can_timestamp callback.

- Waiting for meta frames is done completely inside the tagger, and all
  frames emitted on RX are already partially timestamped.

- Added a global data structure for the tagger common to all ports.

- Made PTP work with ports in standalone mode, by limiting use of the
  DMAC-mangling "incl_srcpt" mode only when ports are bridged, aka when
  the DSA master is already promiscuous and can receive anything.
  Also changed meta frames to be sent at the 01-80-C2-00-00-0E DMAC.

- Made some progress w.r.t. observed negative path delay.  Apparently it
  only appears when the delay mechanism is the delay request-response
  (end-to-end) one. If peer delay is used (-P), the path delay is
  positive and appears reasonable for an 1000Base-T link (485 ns in
  steady state).
