* pps: add parallel port PPS clientAlexander Gordeev2011-01-131-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add parallel port PPS client. It uses a standard method for capturing timestamps for assert edge transitions: getting a timestamp soon after an interrupt has happened. This is not a very precise source of time information due to interrupt handling delays. However, timestamps for clear edge transitions are much more precise because the interrupt handler continuously polls hardware port until the transition is done. Hardware port operations require only about 1us so the maximum error should not exceed this value. This was my primary goal when developing this client. Clear edge capture could be disabled using clear_wait parameter.

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.
