This patch set adds the PPS support into Linux.
A couple of general questions about this (I don't know the background
material in enough detail, so pardon if some of these are "obvious"):
1. Does this support (calibrated) sources with frequency other than
1 Hz?
2. I assume that with the PPS line discipline loaded you can still read
the data from the main pins on the serial port (almost always used
for metadata?)
And a minor note: you use the term CD (Carrier Detect), but in most
references the pin is labelled DCD (Data Carrier Detect).
