This patchset adds support for using the PTP hardware in switches supported by the mv88e6xxx driver. The code was produces in collaboration with Brandon Streiff doing the initial implementation, and then Richard Cochran and Andrew Lunn making further changes and cleanups.
The code is sufficient to use ptp4l on a single DSA interface, either as a master or a slave. Due to the use of an MDIO bus to access the switch, reading hardware timestamps is slower than what ptp4l expects. Thus it is necessary to use the option --tx_timestamp_timeout=32. Heavy use of ethtool -S, or bridge fdb show can also upset ptp4l. Patches to address this will follow. Further work is requires to support bridges using Boundary Clock or Transparent Clock mode. Since netdev is closed at the moment, i'm seeking comments from other DSA driver writers if the common infrastructure added here will work for other switches which DSA support.
