Rodolfo Giometti 697fb85fcf pps: LinuxPPS clients support
Each PPS source can be registered/deregistered into the system by using
special modules called "clients".  They simply define the PPS sources'
attributes and implement the time signal registration mechanism.

This patch adds a special directory for such clients and adds a dummy
client that can be useful to test system integrity on real systems.

PPS (Pulse Per Second) is a special pulse provided by some GPS
antennae. Userland can use it to get a high-precision time
reference.
Some antennae's PPS signals are connected with the CD (Carrier
Detect) pin of the serial line they use to communicate with the
host. In this case use the SERIAL_LINE client support.
Some antennae's PPS signals are connected with some special host
inputs so you have to enable the corresponding client support.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called pps_core.ko.

help
Say Y here if you want the PPS support to produce a bunch of debug
messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a
problem with PPS support and want to see more of what is going on.
