This driver is susceptible to a form of the bug explained in commitc26a2c2ddc("gianfar: Fix TX timestamping with a stacked DSA driver") and in Documentation/networking/timestamping.rst section "Other caveats for MAC drivers", specifically it timestamps any skb which has SKBTX_HW_TSTAMP, and does not consider if timestamping has been enabled in adapter->hwtstamp_config.tx_type. Evaluate the proper TX timestamping condition only once on the TX path (in tsnep_xmit_frame_ring()) and store the result in an additional TX entry flag. Evaluate the new TX entry flag in the TX confirmation path (in tsnep_tx_poll()). This way SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS is set by the driver as required, but never evaluated. SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS shall not be evaluated as it can be set by a stacked DSA driver and evaluating it would lead to unwanted timestamps.

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.
