frequency stability of clk output from pll

for example,pll input clk is 10Mhz, from an OCXO oscillator,with a frequency stability 1ppb per day. 

 

pll output clk is 10Mhz*10 = 100Mhz. 

 

how to get the frequency stability information of the 100Mhz?

By nature of a PLL, the long term stability of the PLL output will be equal to that of the reference frequency. Non-ideal behaviour of a PLL shows at a short time scale. You probably want to review the respective FPGA hardware handbook about the PLL jitter specification.
