Add a PTP clock driver called ptp_vmw, for guests running on VMware ESXi
hypervisor. The driver attaches to a VMware virtual device called
"precision clock" that provides a mechanism for querying host system time.
Similar to existing virtual PTP clock drivers (e.g. ptp_kvm), ptp_vmw
utilizes the kernel's PTP hardware clock API to implement a clock device
that can be used as a reference in Chrony for synchronizing guest time with
host.
The driver is only applicable to x86 guests running in VMware virtual
machines with precision clock virtual device present. It uses a VMware
specific hypercall mechanism to read time from the device.

The IDT 82P33 Synchronization Management Unit (SMU) family provides
tools to manage timing references, clock sources and
timing paths for IEEE 1588 / Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and
Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) based clocks. The device supports up
to three independent timing paths that control: PTP clock synthesis;
SyncE clock generation; and general purpose frequency translation.
The device supports physical layer timing with Digital PLLs (DPLLs)
and it supports packet based timing with Digitally Controlled
Oscillators (DCOs). This patch adds support for ptp clock based on
the device.
Changes since v1:
- As suggested by Richard Cochran:
1. Replace _mask_bit_count with the existing hweight8
2. Prefix all functions with idt82p33
3. Fix white space issues in Kconfig and Makefile
4. Remove forward declaration
5. Use adjfine instead of adjfreq for better resolution
- As suggested by David Miller:
1. Replace CHAN_INIT macro with a static function
idt82p33_channel_init
2. Employ reverse christmas tree ordering for local
variables
3. Fix indentation problem by appropriate number of
TAB then SPACE character

The ixp46x ptp driver has a somewhat unusual setup, where the ptp
driver and the ethernet driver are in different directories but
access the same registers that are defined a platform specific
header file.
Moving everything into drivers/net/ makes it look more like most
other ptp drivers and allows compile-testing this driver on
other targets.

The InES at the ZHAW offers a PTP time stamping IP core. The FPGA
logic recognizes and time stamps PTP frames on the MII bus. This
patch adds a driver for the core along with a device tree binding to
allow hooking the driver to MII buses.

The IDT ClockMatrix (TM) family includes integrated devices that provide
eight PLL channels. Each PLL channel can be independently configured as a
frequency synthesizer, jitter attenuator, digitally controlled
oscillator (DCO), or a digital phase lock loop (DPLL). Typically
these devices are used as timing references and clock sources for PTP
applications. This patch adds support for the device.

This patch is to add debugfs support for ptp_qoriq. Current debugfs
supports to control fiper1/fiper2 loopback mode. If the loopback mode
is enabled, the fiper1/fiper2 pulse is looped back into trigger1/
trigger2 input. This is very useful for validating hardware and driver
without external hardware. Below is an example to enable fiper1 loopback.

gianfar_ptp was the PTP clock driver for 1588 timer
module of Freescale QorIQ eTSEC (Enhanced Three-Speed
Ethernet Controllers) platforms. Actually QorIQ DPAA
(Data Path Acceleration Architecture) platforms is
also using the same 1588 timer module in hardware.
This patch is to rework gianfar_ptp as QorIQ common
PTP driver to support both DPAA and eTSEC. Moved
gianfar_ptp.c to drivers/ptp/, renamed it as
ptp_qoriq.c, and renamed many variables. There were
not any function changes.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

This patch adds an infrastructure for hardware clocks that implement
IEEE 1588, the Precision Time Protocol (PTP). A class driver offers a
registration method to particular hardware clock drivers. Each clock is
presented as a standard POSIX clock.
The ancillary clock features are exposed in two different ways, via
the sysfs and by a character device.
