On multi-chip DSA hardware (e.g., boards with multiple mv88e6xxx chips), each switch chip has its own independent PHC device. With boundary_clock_jbod enabled, ptp4l starts but only disciplines the active slave port's PHC — the others drift. Automatically start phc2sys -a alongside any BC or TC instance using hardware timestamping. It subscribes to ptp4l's UDS socket, tracks BMCA, and disciplines all non-active PHCs to match the active one. On single-chip hardware it is a harmless no-op. CLOCK_REALTIME is intentionally left untouched. Syncing the system clock to PTP (phc2sys -rr), feeding the PHC from GPS/NTP (ts2phc, phc2sys reverse), and full multi-source coordination (timemaster) are planned as follow-on phases; see the issue tracker for the roadmap.
