| What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/sma4 |
| Date: September 2021 |
| Contact: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@gmail.com> |
| Description: (RW) These attributes specify the direction of the signal |
| on the associated SMA connectors, and also the signal sink |
| or source. |
| |
| The display format of the attribute is a space separated |
| list of signals, prefixed by the input/output direction. |
| |
| The signal direction may be changed (if supported) by |
| prefixing the signal list with either "in:" or "out:". |
| If neither prefix is present, then the direction is unchanged. |
| |
| The output signal may be changed by writing one of the listed |
| values from the available_sma_outputs attribute set. |
| |
| The input destinations may be changed by writing multiple |
| values from the available_sma_inputs attribute set, |
| separated by spaces. If there are duplicated input |
| destinations between connectors, the lowest numbered SMA |
| connector is given priority. |
| |
| Note that not all input combinations may make sense. |
| |
| The 10Mhz reference clock input is currently only valid |
| on SMA1 and may not be combined with other destination sinks. |
| |
| What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/tod_correction |
| Date: March 2022 |
| Contact: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@gmail.com> |
| Description: (RW) The incoming GNSS signal is in UTC time, and the NMEA |
| format messages do not provide a TAI offset. This sets the |
| correction value for the incoming time. |
| |
| If UBX_LS is enabled, this should be 0, and the offset is |
| taken from the UBX-NAV-TIMELS message. |
| |
| What: /sys/class/timecard/ocpN/ts_window_adjust |
| Date: September 2021 |
| Contact: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@gmail.com> |
| Description: (RW) When retrieving the PHC with the PTP SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED |
| ioctl, a system timestamp is made before and after the PHC |
| time is retrieved. The midpoint between the two system |
| timestamps is usually taken to be the SYS time associated |
| with the PHC time. This estimate may be wrong, as it depends |
| on PCI latencies, and when the PHC time was latched |
| |
| The attribute value reduces the end timestamp by the given |
| number of nanoseconds, so the computed midpoint matches the |
| retrieved PHC time. |
| |
| The initial value is set based on measured PCI latency and |
| the estimated point where the FPGA latches the PHC time. This |
| value may be changed by writing an unsigned integer. |

| Date: September 2021 |
| Contact: Jonathan Lemon <jonathan.lemon@gmail.com> |
| Description: (RW) The DCF and IRIG output signals are in UTC, while the |
| TimeCard operates on TAI. This attribute allows setting the |
| offset in seconds, which is added to the TAI timebase for |
| these formats. |
| |
| The offset may be changed by writing an unsigned integer. |
