| 8 | PPS (Pulse Per Second) is a special pulse provided by some GPS |
| 9 | antennae. Userland can use it to get a high-precision time |
| 10 | reference. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | Some antennae's PPS signals are connected with the CD (Carrier |
| 13 | Detect) pin of the serial line they use to communicate with the |
| 14 | host. In this case use the SERIAL_LINE client support. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | Some antennae's PPS signals are connected with some special host |
| 17 | inputs so you have to enable the corresponding client support. |

| 19 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module |
| 20 | will be called pps_core.ko. |

| 26 | Say Y here if you want the PPS support to produce a bunch of debug |
| 27 | messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a |
| 28 | problem with PPS support and want to see more of what is going on. |
