Bug: Propagation of unsupported TLVs Attached to Announce PTP Messages

Florob opened this issue · 2 comments

Section 14.2.2 of IEEE Std 1588-2019 specifies propagation of unsupported TLVs attached to Announce messages. As outlined in 14.2.2.2 some TLV types need to be propagated by Boundary Clocks.

Statime currently doesn't support TLVs attached to announce messages at all. TLVs can make messages grow up to the frame size, breaking the current 255 Byte packet size limit.

Hello, thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will start working towards fixing this once we have fixed a number of more structural issues.

Fixed in #388
