+               The /sys/class/pps-gen/ directory contains files and
+               directories that provide a unified interface to the PPS

+Description:
+               The /sys/class/pps-gen/pps-genX/ directory is related to X-th
+               PPS generator in the system. Each directory contain files to
+               manage and control its PPS generator.

+Description:
+               This read-only file returns "1" if the generator takes the
+               timing from the system clock, while it returns "0" if not
+               (i.e. from a peripheral device clock).

+Description:
+               This read-only file contains the current time stored into the
+               generator clock as two integers representing the current time
+               seconds and nanoseconds.
