Linus Walleij dc6ab07d8f ptp: switch to use gpiolib
This platform supports gpiolib, so remove the custom API use
and replace with calls to gpiolib. Also request the GPIO before
starting to use it.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 3499116b91 PTP: convert class code to use dev_groups
The dev_attrs field of struct class is going away soon, dev_groups
should be used instead.  This converts the ptp class code to use the
correct field.

Jiri Slaby 4bb1667255 build some drivers only when compile-testing
Some drivers can be built on more platforms than they run on. This is
a burden for users and distributors who package a kernel. They have to
manually deselect some (for them useless) drivers when updating their
configs via oldconfig. And yet, sometimes it is even impossible to
disable the drivers without patching the kernel.

Introduce a new config option COMPILE_TEST and make all those drivers
to depend on the platform they run on, or on the COMPILE_TEST option.
Now, when users/distributors choose COMPILE_TEST=n they will not have
the drivers in their allmodconfig setups, but developers still can
compile-test them with COMPILE_TEST=y.

Now the drivers where we use this new option:
* PTP_1588_CLOCK_PCH: The PCH EG20T is only compatible with Intel Atom
  processors so it should depend on x86.
* FB_GEODE: Geode is 32-bit only so only enable it for X86_32.
* USB_CHIPIDEA_IMX: The OF_DEVICE dependency will be met on powerpc
  systems -- which do not actually support the hardware via that
  method.
* INTEL_MID_PTI: It is specific to the Penwell type of Intel Atom
  device.

[v2]
* remove EXPERT dependency

[gregkh - remove chipidea portion, as it's incorrect, and also doesn't
 apply to my driver-core tree]

Jiri Benc 7356a764cd ptp: dynamic allocation of PHC char devices
As network adapters supporting PTP are becoming more common, machines with
many NICs suddenly have many PHCs, too. The current limit of eight /dev/ptp*
char devices (and thus, 8 network interfaces with PHC) is insufficient. Let
the ptp driver allocate the char devices dynamically.

Tested with 28 PHCs, removing and re-adding some of them.

Thanks to Ben Hutchings for advice leading to simpler and cleaner patch.

Richard Cochran 215b13dd28 ptp: add an ioctl to compare PHC time with system time
This patch adds an ioctl for PTP Hardware Clock (PHC) devices that allows
user space to measure the time offset between the PHC and the system
clock. Rather than hard coding any kind of estimation algorithm into the
kernel, this patch takes the more flexible approach of just delivering
an array of raw clock readings. In that way, the user space clock servo
may be adapted to new and different hardware clocks.

Ben Hutchings a24006ed12 ptp: Enable clock drivers along with associated net/PHY drivers
Where a PTP clock driver is associated with a net or PHY driver, it
should be enabled automatically whenever that driver is enabled.
Therefore:

- Make PTP clock drivers select rather than depending on PTP_1588_CLOCK
- Remove separate boolean options for PTP clock drivers that are built
  as part of net driver modules.  (This also fixes cases where the PTP
  subsystem is wrongly forced to be built-in.)
- Set 'default y' for PTP clock drivers that depend on specific net
  drivers but are built separately

Initial version by Stuart Hodgson <smhodgson@solarflare.com>

Some PHC device drivers may deliver PPS events with a significant
and variable delay, but still be able to measure precisely what
that delay is.

Add a pps_sub_ts() function for subtracting a delay from the
timestamp(s) in a PPS event, and a PTP event type (PTP_CLOCK_PPSUSR)
for which the caller provides a complete PPS event.

Richard Cochran d94ba80ebb ptp: Added a brand new class driver for ptp clocks.
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.
