This change is for the PHC devices that can measure the phase offset between PHC signal and the external signal, such as the 1PPS signal of GNSS. Reporting PTP_CLOCK_EXTOFF to user space will be piggy-backed to the existing ptp_extts_event so that application such as ts2phc can poll the external offset the same way as extts. Hence, ts2phc can use the offset to achieve the alignment between PHC and the external signal by the help of either SW or HW filters.

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.
