So far changing the period by just setting new period values while running did not work. The order as indicated by the publicly available reference manual of the i.MX8MP [1] indicates a sequence: * initiate the programming sequence * set the values for PPS period and start time * start the pulse train generation. This is currently not used in dwmac5_flex_pps_config(), which instead does: * initiate the programming sequence and immediately start the pulse train generation * set the values for PPS period and start time This caused the period values written not to take effect until the FlexPPS output was disabled and re-enabled again. This patch fix the order and allows the period to be set immediately.

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.
