As opposed to Spectrum-1, in which time stamps arrive through a pair of
dedicated events into a queue and later are being matched to the
corresponding packets, in Spectrum-2 we are reading the time stamps
directly from the CQE. Software can get the time stamp in UTC format
using CQEv2.
Add a time stamp field to 'struct mlxsw_skb_cb'. In
mlxsw_pci_cqe_{rdq,sdq}_handle() extract the time stamp from the CQE into
the new time stamp field. Note that the time stamp in the CQE is
represented by 38 bits, which is a short representation of UTC time.
Software should create the full time stamp using the global UTC clock.
Read UTC clock from hardware only for PTP packets which were trapped to CPU
with PTP0 trap ID (event packets).
Use the time stamp from the SKB when packet is received or transmitted.

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.
