Hi, Together with Maciej Machnikowski <maciej.machikowski@intel.com> <maciejm@nvidia.com> and Milena Olech <milena.olech@intel.com> we would like to inform you, that the source code of the script used to prepare the Netdev 0x15 presentation called “Precision Time Protocol optimization using genetic algorithm” [0] was recently open sourced. The developed framework provides an easy-to-use automated methodology of tuning the Proportional-Integral controller embedded in the linuxptp project. In our research we’ve reached up to 32% smaller mean squared error returned by phc2sys test (comparing to default PI controller settings).

The code is available under this link [1] along with a short documentation. A NIC and a driver that supports 1588 is required to run this test efficiently. All contributions will be considered for acceptance through pull requests. Do not hesitate to contact us in case of any questions or concerns.
