RE: [RFC PATCH 2/3] net: macb: Add support for 1588 for Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC

Hi Nicolas,

 1588 implementation in cadence GEM IP we have in Zynq Ultascale+ MPSoC is
Different to the one in Zynq SOC.

In earlier version, all timestamp values will be stored in registers and there is no specific
Mechanism to distinguish the received ethernet frame that contains time stamp information
Other than parsing the frame for PTP packet type.

We have basic implementation for earlier version in our out of tree driver, which is going to be deprecated
Soon. You could also check the below driver for 1588 support.

Regards,
Punnaiah
