The only thing that linuxpps would be the correct target for is getting the PPS echo facility to do something useful with GPIO (and maybe serial, but that's a whole 'nother driver to consider). In any case, having a timstamped _output_ facility is much more useful than bolting doodads onto the PPS echo (that was originally meant as a debug facility) and should be more easily acceptable for upstream when made sufficiently general. > Lukas told me, privately, he had already submitted it the the > LKM folks and been overwhelmed by the changes they requested.

I'm not blaming him, just a reminder that getting things upstream takes a lot more apple polishing. > Has anyone applied the patch and checked it out? I haven't, mainly because I've tied up both machines where I can reasonably quickly recompile the kernel and don't want to take them off their current duty without a replacement.
