commit a5a441ae283d upstream.

Set use_nsecs=true as timestamp is reported in ns. Lack of this result in smaller timestamp error window which cause error during phc2sys execution on E825 NICs: phc2sys[1768.256]: ioctl PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE: Invalid argument

This problem was introduced in the cited commit which omitted setting use_nsecs to true when converting the ice driver to use convert_base_to_cs().

Testing hints (ethX is PF netdev): phc2sys -s ethX -c CLOCK_REALTIME -O 37 -m phc2sys[1769.256]: CLOCK_REALTIME phc offset -5 s0 freq -0 delay 0

please consider this backport for linux-6.12.y

It fixes a regression from the series around d4bea547ebb57 ("ice/ptp: Remove convert_art_to_tsc()") which affected multiple drivers and occasionally caused phc2sys to fail on ioctl(fd, PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE, ...).

This was the initial fix for ice but apparently tagging it for stable was forgotten during submission.

The hunk was moved around slightly in the upstream commit 92456e795ac6 ("ice: Add unified ice_capture_crosststamp") from ice_ptp_get_syncdevicetime() into another helper function ice_capture_crosststamp() so its indentation and context have changed. I adapted it to apply cleanly. --- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_ptp.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
