-## Introduction
-This readme covers only the additional features added to the gPTP daemon
-to support the AVnu Automotive Profile (AP).
-
-## Automotive Profile Features Implemented
-- In general all features of the AP support for a Slave device have been
-implemented with the following exceptions.
- - Windows OS platform code has not been implemented.
-- Detailed list of the AP implementation includes
- - Configuration
- - Static gPTP values (AutoCDS 6.2.1)
- - Persistent gPTP values (AutoCDS 6.2.2)
- - Management Updated Values (AutoCDS 6.2.3)
- - Signalling Message Configuration (AutoCDS 6.2.4)
- - Followup TLV (AutoCDS 6.2.5)
- - Required Values for gPTP (AutoCDS 6.2.6)
- - Operation
- - Disable BMCA (AutoCDS 6.3)
- - No verification of sourcePortIdentity (AutoCDS 6.3)
- - Sync Holdover (AutoCDS 6.3)
- - Sync Recovery (AutoCDS 6.3)
- - Implement Signalling Message (802.1AS 2011 10.5.4)
- - Implement Test Mode (AutoCDS 5.3)
- - Exception Handling
- - Link State Change (AutoCDS 9.2.1)
- - Loss of Sync Messages (AutoCDS 9.3.1)
- - Non-Continuous Sync Values (AutoCDS 9.3.2)
- - Pdelay Response Timeout (AutoCDS 9.3.3) (Not implemented)
- - neighborPropDelay value (AutoCDS 9.3.4)
- - Diagnostic counters (AutoCDS 13)
- - Abstracted with only simple dump to log upon SIGUSR2 signal.
-
-## Non-Automotive Profile Changes
-- Added fuller feature logging within gPTP
-- Updated the various logging macros and direct usage of printfs to use the new
-logging
-- IEEE1588Port class initialization changed to reduced the 14+ constructor
-parameters to a single init parameter.
-- Link up and Link down detection added.
-- Abstracted the state save functionality to allow for easier integration to
-other platforms.
-
-## New Command Line Options
-- E enable test mode (as defined in AVnu automotive profile)
-- V enable AVnu Automotive Profile
-- GM set grandmaster for Automotive Profile
-- INITSYNC <value> initial sync interval (Log base 2. 0 = 1 sec)
-- OPERSYNC <value> operational sync interval (Log base 2. 0 = 1 sec)
-- INITPDELAY <value> initial pdelay interval (Log base 2. 0 = 1 sec)
-- OPERPDELAY <value> operational pdelay interval (Log base 2. 0 = 1 sec)
-
-## Build Related
-- There are no changes to the standard build for gPTP
-
-## Execution Related
-- Other than the new command line options there are no changes to starting gPTP
-- Example
- - ./run_gptp.sh eth1 -M statefile -V
- - Start with AP and a specific file name for saving state information.
-
-## Run Time Related
-- Signals
- - SIGHUP: writes the current gPTP state information to file.
- - SIGUSR2: Dumps the diagnostic counters to the log
-
-## Known Issues
-- When running as slave (none -GM) there may be a SYNC rx timeout exception reported when signalling to a different SYNC rate.
-- Link down or link up may be incorrectly detected at times.
-
-## Windows Functionality That is Missing
-- The initial implementation of the Automotive Profile for gPTP was done for Linux only.
-- To locate the functionality that must be implemented for windows one approach is to look at the pull request
-at https://github.com/AVnu/Open-AVB/pull/355 and review all the differences in the Linux folder.
-- Brief summary to give a sense of scope of updates needed for Windows
- - MakeFile
- - Updates for new files
- - daemon_cl.cpp
- - New command line options
- - Changed state save and restore (persistence)
- - Automotive profile configuration setup

- - Other updates as well
- - linux_hal_common.cpp
- - Link Up and Down functionality
- - linux_hal_common.hpp
- - Function prototypes updated
- - linux_hal_persist_file.cpp
- - New functionality
- - linux_hal_persist_file.hpp
- - New functionality
