This patch is a preparation for next hardware one-step timestamping support. For DPAA2, the one step timestamping configuration on hardware registers has to be done when there is no one-step timestamping packet in flight. So we will have to use workqueue and skb queue for such packets transmitting, to make sure waiting the last packet has already been sent on hardware, and starting to transmit the current one. So the tx timestamping flag in private data may not reflect the actual request for the one-step timestamping packets of skb queue. This also affects skb headroom allocation. Let's use skb->cb[0] to mark the timestamping request for each skb. Signed-off-by: Yangbo Lu <yangbo.lu@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
