>The key hardware fact: The CM4 uses the BCM54210PE Ethernet PHY which has full IEEE 1588v2 hardware timestamping support. This is what makes sub-microsecond PTP possible on the CM4. The BCM54210PE timestamps packets right at the wire inside the PHY, before the packet touches the kernel network stack. This eliminates the jitter that comes from kernel scheduling and interrupt handling.
Very cool feature I wasn't aware of because I'm not a true Chime Head.
