Hi Miroslav, thanks.
It's a Texas Instruments CPSW (Beaglebone), and looking at the code it
is unsupported on the receiving side:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/e8407fdeb9a6866784e249881f6c786a0835faba/drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_priv.c#L641
This is what ethtool and Chrony correctly identifies ("Enabled HW
timestamping (TX only)").
I so assume as you say that since this is not working, and the
hardware does not support non PTP RX timestamps, it is very likely
that it would not support this on the TX side.
I couldn't find any information about it to confirm though.
Thanks,
Nuno
