testptp sends timestamps 2 times faster than predicted #53
Description
Summary
The TGPIO testing tool testptp is built from tools/testing/selftests/ptp/testptp.c in branch 6.1/linux.
When sending timestamps with this tool built from the latest commit, it always send two times faster than the setting we did. NeverthelessI tried with the previous tag lts-v6.1.28-linux-230601T020337Z and it functioned well.
I suspect there is something wrong with the commits after 2023-06-01.

Steps to reproduce
- Prepare 2 mahcines that support TGPIO and make sure it is enabled in the BIOS.
- Connect those 2 TGPIO pin together.
- Build
testptpon each machine- git clone --depth=1 -b 6.1/linux https://github.com/intel/linux-intel-lts.git
- cd linux-intel-lts
- make headers_install ARCH=x86_64;make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=ptp # To build testpt
- Send timestamps on one machine
- sudo ./tools/testing/selftests/ptp/testptp -d /dev/ptp1 -i 0 -L 0,2 -p 1000000000 # You may have to replace /dev/ptp1 and -i 0 -L 0 according to your machine
- Receive timestamps on another machine
- sudo ./tools/testing/selftests/ptp/testptp -d /dev/ptp1 -i 1 -L 1,1 -e 100 -o 10 -E # You may have to replace /dev/ptp1 and -i 0 -L 0 according to your machine
