Enables PCIe PTM (Precision Time Measurement) support in the igc driver. Notifies the PCI devices that PCIe PTM should be enabled. PCIe PTM is similar protocol to PTP (Precision Time Protocol) running in the PCIe fabric, it allows devices to report time measurements from their internal clocks and the correlation with the PCIe root clock. The i225 NIC exposes some registers that expose those time measurements, those registers will be used, in later patches, to implement the PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE ioctl().

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
