Hm, with recent kernels and drivers that support SW timestamping the
timestamps should always be at least kernel/kernel. What kernel
version do the clients have?

I've tried a few different approaches to wait for the late HW
timestamp and pushed one that I'm quite happy with. It is specific to
the Linux timestamping code and should have a minimal impact in the
usual case when the timestamps are not late (mostly limited to a
configuration with one interface that has HW timestamping, but another
does not).

Could you please build from git and see if it fixes the issue in your
environment?

Do you have a packet capture or chrony debug output showing this?
