I meant a device specfic sysfs attribute.
/sys/class/ptp/ptp2/device/pulse

But this is not true anymore, as I moved the sysfs attribute to a later 
patch (not submitted yet).

I also use PTP_PEROUT_DUTY_CYCLE. But this cannot be set via a shell
script. The existing "period" sysfs attribute doesn't allow to set
the pulse length, so I added a device specific attribute for this.

Should ptp_sysfs be extended with a "pulse" attribute with calls
enable() with only PTP_PEROUT_DUTY_CYCLE set?
