If the 1PPS output was enabled and then lan8841 was configured to be a follower, then target clock which is used to generate the 1PPS was not configure correctly. The problem was that for each adjustments of the time, also the nanosecond part of the target clock was changed. Therefore the initial nanosecond part of the target clock was changed. The issue can be observed if both the leader and the follower are generating 1PPS and see that their PPS are not aligned even if the time is allined. The fix consists of not modifying the nanosecond part of the target clock when adjusting the time. In this way the 1PPS get also aligned.

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.
