In linux kernel since version 2.6.31 (release Date: 2009-09-09)
PPS (Pulse Per Second) is a special pulse provided by some GPS
antennae. Userland can use it to get a high-precision time
reference.
Some antennae's PPS signals are connected with the CD (Carrier
Detect) pin of the serial line they use to communicate with the
host. In this case use the SERIAL_LINE client support.
Some antennae's PPS signals are connected with some special host
inputs so you have to enable the corresponding client support.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called pps_core.ko.
