We now ignore the "completion" event when using tx queue timestamping, and only pay attention to the two (high and low) timestamp events. The NIC will send a pair of timestamp events for every packet transmitted. The current firmware may merge the completion events, and it is possible that future versions may reorder the completion and timestamp events. As such the completion event is not useful. Without this patch in place a merged completion event on a queue with timestamping will cause a "spurious TX completion" error. This affects SFN8000-series adapters.

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.
