When such a long message is required, it means that we don't have enough
premises for this discussion.

You have just interests in gPTP and transferring AVTPDUs, while no
interests in the others such as "what the basic ideas of TSN come from"
and "the reason that IEEE 1722 refers to IEC 61883 series which is
originally designed for IEEE 1394 bus" and "the reason that I was
motivated to join in this discussion even though not a netdev developer".

Here, could I ask you a question? Do you know a role of cycle start
packet of IEEE Std 1394?

If you think it's not related to this discussion, please tell it to me.
Then I'll drop out from this thread.

History Repeats itself.
