Jason Xing says: ==================== net-timestamp: introduce a flag to filter out rx software and hardware report When one socket is set SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_SOFTWARE which means the whole system turns on the netstamp_needed_key button, other sockets that only have SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE will be affected and then print the rx timestamp information even without setting SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_SOFTWARE generation flag. How to solve it without breaking users? We introduce a new flag named SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_RX_FILTER. Using it together with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE can stop reporting the rx software timestamp. Similarly, we also filter out the hardware case where one process enables the rx hardware generation flag, then another process only passing SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE gets the timestamp. So we can set both SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_RX_FILTER to stop reporting rx hardware timestamp after this patch applied. v6: https://lore.kernel.org/20240906095640.77533-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com v5: https://lore.kernel.org/20240905071738.3725-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com v4: https://lore.kernel.org/20240830153751.86895-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com v3: https://lore.kernel.org/20240828160145.68805-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com v2: https://lore.kernel.org/20240825152440.93054-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20240909015612.3856-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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 reStructuredText 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.
