net: Make timestamping selectable
Up until now, there was no way to let the user select the hardware
PTP provider at which time stamping occurs. The stack assumed that PHY time
stamping is always preferred, but some MAC/PHY combinations were buggy.
This series updates the default MAC/PHY default timestamping and aims to
allow the user to select the desired hwtstamp provider administratively.
Here is few netlink spec usage examples:
./ynl/cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml --no-schema
--dump tsinfo-get

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
