PTP for Linux\* Requirements
-----------------------------
+============================
PTP for Linux\* introduces some software and hardware requirements. The
machine on which the tools will be run needs to use at least a 3.10
-Kernel version (built-in PTP support). There are several Kernel options
-that need to be enabled in Kernel configuration:
+Kernel version (built-in PTP support). Several Kernel options need to be
+enabled in Kernel configuration:
- CONFIG_PPS
Be sure that the Kernel is compiled with these options.
For the best precision, PTP uses hardware timestamping. NIC has its own
-clock, called Physical Hardware Clock (PHC) to read current time just a
+clock, called Physical Hardware Clock (PHC), to read current time just a
moment before the packet is sent to minimalize the delays added by the
Kernel processing the packet. Not every NIC supports that feature. To
confirm that currently attached NIC support Hardware Timestamps, use
-ethtool with the command:

ethtool -T eth0

git checkout v2.0

+=======
The PHC clock is independent from the system clock. Synchronizing only
-PHC does not make the system clock exactly the same as the primary. The
+PHC does not make the system clock exactly the same as the master. The
xRAN library requires use of the system clock to determine a common
point in time on two machines (O-DU and RU) to start transmission at the
-same moment and keep time frames defined by ORAN Fronthaul specification.
+same moment and keep time frames defined by O-RAN Fronthaul
+specification.
This application keeps the system clock updated to PHC. It makes it
possible to use POSIX timers as a time reference in xRAN application.
Run phc2sys with the command::
cd linuxptp
-
./phc2sys -s enp25s0f0 -w -m -R 8

Support in xRAN Library
-----------------------------
+=======================
The xRAN library provides an API to check whether PTP for Linux is
running correctly. There is a function called xran_is_synchronized(). It
checks if ptp4l and phc2sys are running in the system by making PMC tool
-requests for current port state and comparing it with the expected
+requests for the current port state and comparing it with the expected
value. This verification should be done before initialization.
-*notes. “SECONDARY” is the only expected value in this release; only a
-non-primary scenario is supported currently.*
-
-*notes1. Inclusive language terms were used except for the PTP traces where the source code has
-not been updated to support the inclusive language terms yet.*
