"""
Prometheus exporter for linuxptp nodes.
Designed for:
* GNSS/PPS grandmasters (ptp4l + phc2sys + optional chrony)
* Linux boundary clocks (including boundary_clock_jbod)
* Ordinary-clock / downstream Linux clients
The exporter reads ptp4l through its read-only Unix-domain management socket
(/var/run/ptp4lro by default) using pmc. It does not modify PTP state.
Optional data sources:
* chronyc tracking / sources - useful on a GNSS-backed grandmaster
* systemd service state
* recent phc2sys journal output, to expose the PHC<->system/PHC servo offset
