Annotated Snippet
ZHAW InES PTP time stamping IP core
The IP core needs two different kinds of nodes. The control node
lives somewhere in the memory map and specifies the address of the
control registers. There can be up to three port handles placed as
attributes of PHY nodes. These associate a particular MII bus with a
port index within the IP core.
Required properties of the control node:
- compatible: "ines,ptp-ctrl"
- reg: physical address and size of the register bank
Required format of the port handle within the PHY node:
- timestamper: provides control node reference and
the port channel within the IP core
Example:
tstamper: timestamper@60000000 {
compatible = "ines,ptp-ctrl";
reg = <0x60000000 0x80>;
};
ethernet@80000000 {
...
mdio {
...
ethernet-phy@3 {
...
timestamper = <&tstamper 0>;
};
};
};
Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
