Kalle/Thomas, Thanks for your feedback.
Please don't top most, it makes using patchwork difficult and is annoying to the readers.
This time sync support is different from the one that mac80211 maintains with mesh peers. This time sync is mostly used by upper layers for several applications (like audio). In this case we allow the user to configure for each zone who will be the synchronizer. You can refer to the following Application Report (chapter 6) for more information: http://www.ti.com/lit/an/swaa166/swaa166.pdf
I didn't fully understand what this does, but debugfs doesn't sound (no pun intended) like a suitable interface for something like this. nl80211 is more likely candidate. -- Kalle Valo
