On the other hand, when #ptpd is bound to an #Ethernet bridge member in #Linux where an IPv4 address is not assigned, it refuses to run and complains.
#ptpd can't therefore use hardware #timestamping on a Linux bridge member,
as it knows nothing about bridges, and must be manually configured for
software timestamping on the bridge itself as a fallback. Moreover, ptpd2
lacks logging for which #SO_TIMESTAMPING or #SO_BINTIME mode it is using.
