I do not understand your setup. Can you explain a bit more?

No, there is the new ntpd gpsd-json driver, as well as the ATOM
driver.

That would be an ntpd problem, not a gpsd problem.

Garbage in, garbage out. Any idea why? Have you put a scope on it?
In any case, I am not familiar with the hardpps driver, it is not used
by gpsd.

With some limitations. The pps-gpio driver only timestamps the
asser edge, not the clear edge. I jsut reported that bug to the
maintainters, they are still in denial.

Which jitter, the serial time jitter or the PPS jitter? I assume you
mean the PPS jitter?
How long did you let the system run? I find it takes days for a RasPi
clock to settle down.
