Description
When the Sidecar sequencer boots it determines whether or not Tofino may be running based on the state of the hardware sequencer, in an attempt to not interrupt the network when not strictly necessary. As part of this it skips clock generator init if the system is already running, silently ignoring possible updates in the clock generator configuration. Can we embed some kind of checksum into the generated payload of this config based on the original programming file generated by Timing Commander so we know when to force restart the system?
