Subject: sfc: Rewrite adjustment of PPS event in a clearer way
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=92d8f766ecce190dc2aa5d1aa9a5f5381e831641;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

sfc: Rewrite adjustment of PPS event in a clearer way

There is substantial latency in generation and handling of PPS events
from the NIC, which we have to correct for before passing a host
timestamp to the PPS subsystem.  We compare clocks with the MC,
giving us two offsets to subtract from the timestamp generated by
pps_get_ts():

(a) Time from the last good sync (where we got host and NIC timestamps
    for nearly the same instant) to the time we called pps_get_ts()
(b) Time from NIC top of second to the last good sync

We currently calculate (a) + (b) in a quite confusing way.
Instead, calculate (a) completely, then add (b) to it.
