+What:		/sys/class/ptp/
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This directory contains files and directories
+		providing a standardized interface to the ancillary
+		features of PTP hardware clocks.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This directory contains the attributes of the Nth PTP
+		hardware clock registered into the PTP class driver
+		subsystem.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/clock_name
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This file contains the name of the PTP hardware clock
+		as a human readable string. The purpose of this
+		attribute is to provide the user with a "friendly
+		name" and to help distinguish PHY based devices from
+		MAC based ones. The string does not necessarily have
+		to be any kind of unique id.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/max_adjustment
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This file contains the PTP hardware clock's maximum
+		frequency adjustment value (a positive integer) in
+		parts per billion.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/n_alarms
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This file contains the number of periodic or one shot
+		alarms offer by the PTP hardware clock.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/n_external_timestamps
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This file contains the number of external timestamp
+		channels offered by the PTP hardware clock.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/n_periodic_outputs
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This file contains the number of programmable periodic
+		output channels offered by the PTP hardware clock.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/n_pins
+Date:		March 2014
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This file contains the number of programmable pins
+		offered by the PTP hardware clock.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/pins
+Date:		March 2014
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This directory contains one file for each programmable
+		pin offered by the PTP hardware clock. The file name
+		is the hardware dependent pin name. Reading from this
+		file produces two numbers, the assigned function (see
+		the PTP_PF_ enumeration values in linux/ptp_clock.h)
+		and the channel number. The function and channel
+		assignment may be changed by two writing numbers into
+		the file.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/pps_avaiable
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This file indicates whether the PTP hardware clock
+		supports a Pulse Per Second to the host CPU. Reading
+		"1" means that the PPS is supported, while "0" means
+		not supported.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/extts_enable
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This write-only file enables or disables external
+		timestamps. To enable external timestamps, write the
+		channel index followed by a "1" into the file.
+		To disable external timestamps, write the channel
+		index followed by a "0" into the file.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/fifo
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This file provides timestamps on external events, in
+		the form of three integers: channel index, seconds,
+		and nanoseconds.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/period
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This write-only file enables or disables periodic
+		outputs. To enable a periodic output, write five
+		integers into the file: channel index, start time
+		seconds, start time nanoseconds, period seconds, and
+		period nanoseconds. To disable a periodic output, set
+		all the seconds and nanoseconds values to zero.
+
+What:		/sys/class/ptp/ptpN/pps_enable
+Date:		September 2010
+Contact:	Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+		This write-only file enables or disables delivery of
+		PPS events to the Linux PPS subsystem. To enable PPS
+		events, write a "1" into the file. To disable events,
+		write a "0" into the file.
