This software is an implementation of the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) according to IEEE standard 1588 for Linux. The project’s dual design goals are to provide a robust implementation of the standard, and to use the most relevant and modern Application Programming Interfaces (API) offered by the Linux kernel. Supporting legacy APIs and other platforms is not a goal.
Network Time Foundation provides support for the LinuxPTP Project and hosts the PTP/SyncE Consortium. Learn more about the Foundation’s work at https://www.nwtime.org.
