i210 can't generate the 1PPS pulse when it become the ptp slave

[waleslai]

Hi All

I try to run linnxptp with i210 NIC card, by tutorial, I already modify igb Linux driver source code to generate 1PPS at SDP 0 pin, however, when I run it for IEEE 1588 test, the i210 as master of IEEE 1588, by Scope, we can find the PPS is stable at every 1 second. But if it be the slave of IEEE 1588, the PPS disappear and never show again

After much test and check the driver code, we sure the PPS can't generate when it's become the slave of IEEE 1588, we don' understand why?

===================

System information

OS: Ubuntu 20.04 with kernel 5.4.0-26

Linuxptp(The Linux PTP Project  ) 2.0, we try to using the latest version, still same

igb source version: 5.4.16

*figure show we modify part
