Meta frame reception relies on the hardware keeping its promise that it will send no other traffic towards the CPU port between a link-local frame and a meta frame. Otherwise there is no other way to associate the meta frame with the link-local frame it's holding a timestamp of. The receive function is made stateful, and buffers a timestampable frame until its meta frame arrives, then merges the two, drops the meta and releases the link-local frame up the stack.

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.
