The <package>linuxptp</package> package includes the
<application>ptp4l</application> and
<application>phc2sys</application> programs for clock synchronization. The
<application>ptp4l</application> program implements the <systemitem
class="protocol">PTP</systemitem> boundary clock and ordinary clock.
With hardware time stamping, it is used to synchronize the <systemitem
class="protocol">PTP</systemitem> hardware clock to the master clock,
and with software time stamping it synchronizes the system clock to the master clock. The
<application>phc2sys</application> program is needed only with hardware time
stamping, for synchronizing the system clock to the <systemitem
class="protocol">PTP</systemitem> hardware clock on the
<firstterm>network interface card</firstterm>
