Currently PTP is broken when ports are in standalone mode (the tagger
keeps printing this message):
sja1105 spi0.1: Expected meta frame, is 01-80-c2-00-00-0e in the DSA master multicast filter?
Sure, one might say "simply add 01-80-c2-00-00-0e to the master's RX
filter" but things become more complicated because:
- Actually all frames in the 01-80-c2-xx-xx-xx and 01-1b-19-xx-xx-xx
range are trapped to the CPU automatically
- The switch mangles bytes 3 and 4 of the MAC address via the incl_srcpt
("include source port [in the DMAC]") option, which is how source port
and switch id identification is done for link-local traffic on RX. But
this means that an address installed to the RX filter would, at the
end of the day, not correspond to the final address seen by the DSA
master.
Assume RX filtering lists on DSA masters are typically too small to
include all necessary addresses for PTP to work properly on sja1105, and
just request promiscuous mode unconditionally.
Just an example:
Assuming the following addresses are trapped to the CPU:
01-80-c2-00-00-00 to 01-80-c2-00-00-ff
01-1b-19-00-00-00 to 01-1b-19-00-00-ff
These are 512 addresses.
Now let's say this is a board with 3 switches, and 4 ports per switch.
The 512 addresses become 6144 addresses that must be managed by the DSA
master's RX filtering lists.
This may be refined in the future, but for now, it is simply not worth
it to add the additional addresses to the master's RX filter, so simply
request it to become promiscuous as soon as the driver probes.

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 Restructured Text 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.
