Why This File Exists
Repeatable hardware-adapter layer. Deep compatibility for every driver is out of scope; this atlas records patterns, probe lifecycles, bus glue, IRQ/DMA usage, and links back to core abstractions.

# PPS support configuration

menuconfig PPS
tristate "PPS support"
help
PPS (Pulse Per Second) is a special pulse provided by some GPS
antennae. Userland can use it to get a high-precision time
reference.
Some antennae's PPS signals are connected with the CD (Carrier
Detect) pin of the serial line they use to communicate with the
host. In this case use the SERIAL_LINE client support.
Some antennae's PPS signals are connected with some special host
inputs so you have to enable the corresponding client support.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called pps_core.ko.
if PPS
config PPS_DEBUG
bool "PPS debugging messages"
help
Say Y here if you want the PPS support to produce a bunch of debug
messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a
problem with PPS support and want to see more of what is going on.
config NTP_PPS
bool "PPS kernel consumer support"
depends on !NO_HZ_COMMON
help
This option adds support for direct in-kernel time
synchronization using an external PPS signal.
It doesn't work on tickless systems at the moment.

Annotation
- Atlas domain: Driver Families / drivers/pps.
- 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.
