Merge branch 'af_packet-timestamp'
Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== This is a joint effort with Willem to bring optional i) tx hw/sw timestamping into PF_PACKET, that was reported by Paul Chavent, and ii) to expose the type of timestamp to the user, which is in the current situation not possible to distinguish with the RX_RING and TX_RING API (but distinguishable through the normal timestamping API), reported by Richard Cochran. This set is based on top of ``packet: account statistics only in tpacket_stats_u''. Related discussion can be found in: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/238125/ ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

-If PACKET_TIMESTAMP is not set, a software timestamp generated inside
-the networking stack is used (the behavior before this setting was added).
+For the mmap(2)ed ring buffers, such timestamps are stored in the
+tpacket{,2,3}_hdr structure's tp_sec and tp_{n,u}sec members. To determine
+what kind of timestamp has been reported, the tp_status field is binary |'ed
+with the following possible bits ...
+
+ TP_STATUS_TS_SYS_HARDWARE
+ TP_STATUS_TS_RAW_HARDWARE
+ TP_STATUS_TS_SOFTWARE
+
+... that are equivalent to its SOF_TIMESTAMPING_* counterparts. For the
+RX_RING, if none of those 3 are set (i.e. PACKET_TIMESTAMP is not set),
+then this means that a software fallback was invoked *within* PF_PACKET's
+processing code (less precise).
+
+Getting timestamps for the TX_RING works as follows: i) fill the ring frames,
+ii) call sendto() e.g. in blocking mode, iii) wait for status of relevant
+frames to be updated resp. the frame handed over to the application, iv) walk
+through the frames to pick up the individual hw/sw timestamps.
+
+Only (!) if transmit timestamping is enabled, then these bits are combined
+with binary | with TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE, so you must check for that in your
+application (e.g. !(tp_status & (TP_STATUS_SEND_REQUEST | TP_STATUS_SENDING))
+in a first step to see if the frame belongs to the application, and then
+one can extract the type of timestamp in a second step from tp_status)!
+
+If you don't care about them, thus having it disabled, checking for
+TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE resp. TP_STATUS_WRONG_FORMAT is sufficient. If in the
+TX_RING part only TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE is set, then the tp_sec and tp_{n,u}sec
+members do not contain a valid value. For TX_RINGs, by default no timestamp
+is generated!
See include/linux/net_tstamp.h and Documentation/networking/timestamping
for more information on hardware timestamps.
