Hi,
That may be due to 1 or 2 different issues:
1. You are using a NIC that doesn't support PTP timesyncing. What NIC are you using?
2. You are using a Fortville NIC but don't have the latest code from dpdk.org.

You will need to address the above issue first, but just to be clear, the NIC doesn't update the timestamp in the PTP packet. It sets a flag to say that the packet is a L2 PTP packet and that the timestamp of its arrival is available for reading.
